I have to admit... While I liked, and in some cases, respected the pilots I flew with, only one or two were "rocket scientists"... Most were, but for a career choice, little different from their crewmen.

Cat... Pigeons... Go...

I think that its you who have missed the point. AA, as was, and NCA are, and always have been, ripped off on the flying pay issue. You may have got a slightly better deal with regard to pensions on PAS but the bean counters are laughing all the way.

As someone who has a real vested interest in all of this perhaps you would like to run by me exactly where it is I have been or am being ripped off.

Before you start though please understand that I have absolutely no interest in what Pilots, Nav,s, WSO's etc etc get as I am a WSOP and not one of those previously mentioned.

You must have me confused with someone else as envy is not a trait I have or ever have had.

I have no interest in what my colleagues may or may not earn but I do know the 60k wage I currently receive with expected 100+k handout and 33k pension at 55 is plenty when I consider who and what I am.

So to go back to a previous post can you tell me where exactly I am being stiffed

I guess FP does not really affect you as you are on PAS, so how about this single point of how WSOp's were/are being ripped off (unless something has changed after I recently left).

PAS was to decouple pay from rank and this is how it works for Pilots, Nav's they have no rank bars to the next pay level.
So why when WSOp's were allowed on to PAS were rank bars introduced only for NCA??

You may have absolutely no interest in what Pilots, Nav,s, WSO's etc etc get as you are a WSOp, but do you have an interest in fairness?
However you dress it up PAS is not fair for WSO's.

The rules of the forum forbid a proper response to that!

Agreed!

Subject closed I think; hard to challenge when an opinion changes with the wind, for the wind up.
