Army and Navy no longer support the capability allowance. The new one will have much tighter eligibility rules and will drop out after an officer reaches a certain seniority in rank, perhaps five years. This is to incentivise promotion. The new structure has not been exhibited as yet. The proposal goes to the DFRT in March.
Really? Who made that D? Cap allowance is one of the only things keeping a lot of senior line pilots at front line AAvn units.....
