Viz,
Which brings us back to the original question. I understood that you would revert to the Career Spine if you retired early and hadn't served your time on the PAS.
If so, and you're over 50 and leave with 6 months notice, I guess they will base your pension on your last years salary - 6 months as PAS and 6 months as CS (without any flying pay included). Makes my head hurt! As a PAS man myself, but aged less than 50, I'd have to serve for another year if I decided to PVR - my pension would therefore be exactly the same as someone who has always been on the CS and is also on the AFPS05.
Just to be clear, I believe that if you've served your time as PAS and are on the new AFPS05 then you won't suffer any penalty by retiring early.
