Has anyone seen any figures (or tables as per AFPS 75) concerning the purchase of added years in AFPS 05? If I stay until 55 I will only have 32 years reckonable service rather than the 35 required to receive 50% of best year of last 3 years salary.

AFPS 05 appears to allow you a maximum of 40 years reckonable service. If you purchase added years to get to 40 years can you significantly boost the pension? If you can does it make financial sense to do so or could you get a better rate of return elsewhere?

Any answers out there? (other than get some time in sonny!)
