Will IP still happen on new pension scheme?

I wonder how other aircraft operators manage to keep their aircraft flying with - what would appear to be - far fewer supervisory levels amongst their technical staff.

I wonder how other aircraft operators manage to pay their admin staff the same as their technical staff!

By paying a better wage as befitting of the training and experience required.

Are the extra techy ranks really about paying people more money?

(Funny, I could have sworn we had chief technicians back in the days when all the n'er-do-well non-techy trades were not on the higher pay band.)

"Run to the Hills" I suppose,

But don't expect Bruce Dickinson to fly you there!!

Not sure how this will affect present pensions though, because I too have heard "ripples" of changes apparent.

I did not delete them because I cannot moderate this particular forum. But I did report what you posted and asked a Mod with the relevant permissions to do the honours.

The reason why; http://www.e-goat.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?3-Security-Rules.

I cannot find the info you posted in any open source. If you have a link that is not to the intranet and therefore destined for general release, I will ask to have your post re-instated and I will apologise.

It might seem a bit crappy that we delete stuff that people post with all the best intentions, but the fact is, people like to read EGOAT at work, if we allow security breaches (and the RAF consider stuff posted to Intranet only and then released by others as security breaches) then we will get binned off IGS.

I would suggest you had a bit of an idea about this as you got banned from the RAF Facebook page for posting it.

So, just to clarify, if a Cpl who is now at their 12 yr point (no names...) stayed in and was transferred to the new pension in 2015, they'd get (their whole?) gratuity, and 15/22 of their pension paid from their 22 yr point, followed by the other 7/22 of their pension from age 60? I see how this is likely to affect pensions, but what about gratuities/terminal grants?

Following on from what a previous poster said, everyone on LOS 30 will instantly bin out in 2014 in order to get their pension paid immediately, and not from age 60, won't they? I know I would anyway!

Or are our policy makers so tragically naive that they think this won't happen?

No-one is in a position to clarify anything about any future pension scheme just yet.

At least there wont be a need for 2nd and 3rd trance redundancies!! lol. That should save them a few hundred thousand at the expense of a lot of top level experience and the future confidence that we will be looked after for the service we pay to the safety of the country!!
