These little tidbits were added to the ADSC reg at the end of '09. Within a month, my rpa unit was ordered to send up all IP's names through MPF so they can be tagged with a 2 year ADSC retroactively for our mickey-mouse 5 day in-house IP upgrade (we expanded it since). We fought it and they backed away from the retroactive ADSCs, but if you believe AFPC won't change the rules mid-stream and prey on the fact you're not an expert in their regs, you haven't been in the rpa community long enough.
IC-1 TO AFI 36-2107, ACTIVE DUTY SERVICE COMMITMENTS
25 NOVEMBER 2009
*SUMMARY OF CHANGES
*c. Rated officers who retrain into another rated career field (e.g., air battle manager who retrains as a navigator or pilot),
crossflow to a different weapons system (basic qualification) or aircraft airframe will incur the full ADSC
for that training even if that ADSC extends beyond the officer’s 10th year of rated service.
*15. Members selected for in-unit or unit funded courses will still incur any applicable ADSC for that course.
For those courses not updated in OTA the base MPF/MPS will forward HQ AFPC/DPSOTES the member’s
name, SSAN, course ID, class start date and class graduation date.
