BA Pilots Lose Out on Commands

[Wirbelsturm]

Don't bother with WW. For an accurate view of just how much rubbish, half truths and lies he/she spouts have a look at this thread:

http://www.pprune.org/terms-endearme...ocritical.html

Where WW claims to be management, in Waterside, attending meetings etc. to peddle his nebulous, ill thought out, derisive rubbish only to be found out for the real fool he is.

The above post, once again, reveals his inability to grasp facts.

Perhaps working for Len McKlusky in Unite is the best place for him, as neither of them have a particularly accurate grasp on reality.

Back to the thread.

Wiggy,

Your's(?!!!) was a point well made? Stop throwing stones, the glass will smash.

That is all.

BIGBAD, what an intelligent individual you are. Hit a raw nerve have we?
Now let's have a look at BA Pilot pay:
British Airways pilot jobs, payscales and entry requirements.
So as we can see FO's top line £113,000 + £12 per hour FP.
Captains top line (last updated 2008) £144,000 + £12 per hour FP.
Plus what other LCC's don't get....final salary pension scheme, retiring on 2/3 of your final salary. Very nice!

"I think pilots in the UK are generally paid what they should be paid with respect to the job they do."

Sorry which UK are you living in?, obviously not the same one I am old chap!!

Seem to remember that ALOT of the Cabin Crew retired on NAPS/APS with a similar payout. They moaned that pilots got more but that was because pilots paid alot more in!

Anyhoo, no final salary pension scheme at BA anymore, only money purchase.

Anymore out of date quips?

Oh, and Air France, Lufthansa, Singapore, LKM, Iberia all have paysacales off the graph in comparison to BA. So, before comparing apples with pears (LCC vs Worldwide) please get your facts straight. Something you never ever seem to have been capable of, even to the point of muddling your own education and vocation up!

Very good cut and paste job wonker, but 0/10 for demonstrating any understanding.


You still seem to be claiming/implying/spinning that BA pilots get:

Final salary scheme giving a pension of AT LEAST £80,000pa.

So do tell us:

1. What percentage of those "top line" figures is used to calculate
a NAPS pension?

2. Given that not everybody makes "top line" as you call it how do you get "AT LEAST £80,000".

3. And how can your comment be true when the Final Salary scheme has been closed to new joiners, even pilots for several years.

FWIW I'll be retiring from BA in a few years on "top line" captain's pay on a Final Salary scheme pension that will be significantly less than the 80K you seem to insist pilots get.

If you carry on like this you'll start making yourself look like a bit of a "chump".

Thanks for the kind thoughts Mike, you've made me go all
