Welcome to BALPA- the voice of UK pilots. BALPA is run by pilots for pilots. Together we tackle the issues that matter to you.

BALPA continues to campaign on behalf of members to maintain and improve flight safety, protect the piloting profession and through our strength and unity support individuals. Every member, at every company in every position is part of that. 

Unity is our strength and BALPA will glue us as individuals together making us stronger and influential with employers, regulators, politicians, aviation stakeholders and the public. Every member can engage and influence and through your elected representatives we will tackle the issues relevant in the modern aviation world. 

I want to welcome you to YOUR website and in these pages, you can find out how to get involved and make a change. BALPA is your union and I urge you to find ways to help make a difference for the collective. It might be a post in the portal or an email to your company council or even speaking directly with a rep. Whatever method you choose please do get involved and shape the future. 

I am not only proud to serve BALPA but it is a great honour to be given the opportunity to be Executive President of your association and I sincerely hope you too will be a proud and active member. 

BALPA, the voice of UK Pilots: Safety, Strength, Unity.
