    Choke yourself you sanctimonious prick.   For the record, you are not as smart as you think you are, you have simply become a mindless part of the collective, endlessly spewing the same old PA verbiag

    all us mid level captains have seen the bullshit...we dropped when there was only one fighter per class, we had RPAs in our -38 drops, we were in the squadrons with the TAMI 21 guys and heard how they

  • Nobody cares what you talk about on your airline job. You should not be paid to work on your next job while at work on active duty. Do that on your own time. Yeah, yeah, we have transition programs

What a strange place we're in. The POC for processing bonuses is forced to take a work/pay cut. Odd.

It should surprise me, but it doesn't. It's a page out of Catch 22.

From finalized status had anyone gotten payed already? And if so, how long did it take? I was finalized 1Aug.

I was FINALIZED 07-Aug, but I can't be paid until 05-Sep (the end of my UPT commitment).

I see, well my commitment ended yesterday 13-Aug, we will see how long it will take and will post how long between finalized and/or UPT commitment and money in the bank to see how long things are taking.

Just to make sure I have all my ducks in a row...does "years of aviation service as pilots" refer to DOR, UPT start date, or UPT graduation date?

(I did search and saw this question in relation to different bonus packages but the wording was slightly different.)

Correct.

I think that's the first correct, concise, SA enhancing comm you've added to the forum in a while.

-And since you're not rated, SA = situational awareness.

I wouldn't call piling on to someone else's answer "SA enhancing"

Any word on how this is going? When I check, it still shows like a 45% take rate, and worse for fighters.

Apparently 55% of the pilots eligible just aren't grateful for the wonderful opportunity that is being bestowed upon them from their kind and giving Air Force... we will obviously be much better off without those ungrateful bastards who will be easily replaced!!! I'm sure most of those takers are putting that money to good use... it can be expensive to fly out of Montgomery to house hunt for future Staff jobs.

It's probably so low because Bob is still building packages. Mine is still showing status as 'Submitted' & I hit send late July.

That's one theory. Here's another:

You getting paid is WAAAAAAYYYYY down on the priority list. You as a number on a slide is, well, a bit higher on that priority list.

I'm betting that the people that you are wishing would process your paperwork are kinda busy putting your number into a spreadsheet.

Or not. Who knows?

Update 10 Sep:

20 YAS - 5 - 0.71%

20 YAS w/50% upfront - 73 - 10.30%

5 years - 259 - 36.53%

Overall: 47.54% take rate.

AMC ~35%

PACAF ~37%

ACC ~40%

USAFE ~42%

AFSOC ~45%

AFMC ~52%

AETC ~53%

GSCOM ~67%

I just don't buy it. They must still be processing apps.
