I don't know the implications for AFPS 05, but for AFPS 75...
I am in a similar position to Ray, due to hit IPP/exit date on AFPS 75 soon after implementation of AFPS 15. Using the new pensions calculator, I am roughly £2k per year worse off (not including loss of flying pay) if I leave at IPP/exit date if it is considered to be leaving by PVR due to the new 20/40 return of service that is part of the new pension, rather than leaving at completion of service.
I am out to pasture on a last tour of duty with 2 years to run, but the implications are that there is the potential for this to be now 6 years to go if wanted/extended by AFPS 15 return of service. I am sure there are many others in this situation so I await with baited breath the promised DIN with full details of FAFPS implementation and the resultant changes to my, and many other's, terms of service.
This change of return of service has many implications which have not yet been fully briefed or understood by people (including the powers that be and Manning).
