AFPS 75 v AFPS 05
I opted for the 05 pension at the option point, I then moved to the PES (Aviator) salary. The bonus here is that my 05 pension is calculated from my salary (which includes my old flying pay). There isn't any qualifying period for the 05 pension. The 05 pension pays out on the highest salary over the last two years PES(A) or not. I am not sure about the 75 pension, but I do know that my collegues who remaind on the 75 pension do not get anything like the same return.
