LONDON, March 26 (Reuters) - The union representing British
pilots has described the government's scheme to retain jobs
through the coronavirus outbreak as confusing, lacking detail
and taking too long to help those who are being laid off now.
The British Airline Pilots Association said there were
serious technical issues with the government's Coronavirus Job
Retention Scheme that needed to be fixed now.
"From the scant details we have now, it seems like a
terrible mess," BALPA General Secretary Brian Strutton said.
