VLF Protection Year 2021-2022
VLF is now in its seventh year and despite the challenging aviation and insurance environments and the ongoing effects of Covid-19, we continue to support members, offering temporary and permanent loss of licence benefits in the event of a suspension or cancellation of their Australian Class 1 Pilot medical certificate. Given VIPA’s planned amalgamation with the Transport Workers’ Union (TWU) and the potential that holds for growth of the Fund, we are confident of strengthened negotiating power in future years, which will enable us to deliver the best possible loss of licence terms.
Please refer to the 2021-22 VLF PDS for the full terms.
The contribution payable for the VLF product in 2021 is $3,004.77.
