Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)


Toro

Recommended Posts

Was this already posted? The FY17 Rated Officer Retention Analysis is in the Static Demographics under AFPC applications. 

Normal details, but the pilot FY17 take rate was 43.8%, down from 48.1% in FY16.

They have managed to get over 300 pilots to sign up for 22 or 24 years aviation service bonus.  That should make up the difference for the low take rate of pilots expiring on their pilot training commitment.

Assume every last one of those will wind up filling staff roles. We will see.

Is AMS and/or RAW working for you guys?  The pages won't load for me over the last week. I've been itching to see the FY17 Retention report..

It wasn't posted this week. My guess is they'll wait to post it until end of calendar year since the FY17 NDAA AVB is offered until Dec 31st (excluding 1 & 2 yr options).

Does that 43.8% number include the 1-2 year bonus takers? My feeling is that many of the 1-2 year takers are already in non-UPT ADSC commitments, so they took the free money.

If so, that number is even worse than it appears.

Retirees returning to AD are exempt from involuntary deployment

Has anyone seen the increase in flight pay yet?

Month and a half after implementation and still getting the old rate at my Guard base.  Anyone else’s finance still unable to unfuck this situation?

And they wonder why no one wants to stick around.

Saw my modest bump first paycheck. ANG dude. I have to admit, with all the (non) support agencies we rightfully bitch about, our finance shop isn’t one of them. They’ve generally been spot-on and I’ve heard very few peeps have pay issues. Now if only some of them would cross-train to Comm...

No flight pay bump yet at my Reserve base. Finance told another pilot in my unit “It could take up to a year...the pay tables from AFRC aren’t correct”

Not really sure why I expect anything other than gross incompetence from support agencies.

Imagine if I flew an ILS (a routine task) like a finance guy files a voucher. Sorry, the system is down. Sorry, we went to lunch. Sorry, we’re closed for training. Sorry, you didn’t sign this on the correct date. Sorry, we lost the voucher. Sorry, you need to show me in the AFI where it says I have to do my job. More time is expended creating any/every excuse NOT to do a primary job than actually performing the smallest task.

It’s OK though. Because they can never be fired.

Still no pay bump for this ANG guy.  

That's great, a good finance is worth their weight in gold!  I wish I could say the same about our finance.  I just wish I could go back to the days of paper vouchers, paper 105s, etc...

No pay bump here either. My finance office (which is great) filed a ticket with DFAS which was in the system for about 3 weeks before DFAS closed the ticket and said "it is a known problem and we will fix the issue in one big batch." My finance office apparently does not have the authority to fix it. Unbelievable.

Pretty sure this is the extent of what our finance office said too.
