_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

The effective date of his Fiscal Year 2011 (FY11) Aviator 
Continuation Pay (ACP) contract be changed to 1 October 2010, the 
date his Active Guard Reserve (AGR) orders became effective. 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

Eligibility guidance did not come out until 23 February 2011. He 
became eligible on 1 October 2010 when he received his initial 
AGR tour orders; however, he couldn’t sign a contract until the 
guidance release. As a result, he did not sign his ACP contract 
until 23 February 2011. 

 

In support of his appeal, the applicant provides copies of his 
ACP Statement of Understanding, Aeronautical Orders, Aviation 
Continuation Roster, Individual Data Summary, and his AGR active 
duty orders. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is currently serving in the Air National Guard 
(ANG) as a Mobility Pilot in the grade of captain (O-3). 

 

According to the orders provided by the applicant, his initial 
AGR active duty tour was effective 1 April 2008 to 15 December 
2010. He was subsequently continued on active duty orders 
effective 15 December 2010 to 15 December 2014. On 23 February 
2011, the applicant signed a FY11 Pilot ACP Agreement Statement 
of Understanding. 

 

The remaining relevant facts extracted from the applicant’s 
military service records are contained in the evaluation by the 
Air Force office of primary responsibility at Exhibit B.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

NGB/A1PF recommends denial. A1PF states that in accordance with 
the FY11 ANG ACP Policy, paragraph 2.1.4.1, in order for a member 
to be eligible to apply, they must “have completed at least ten 
years of service as a pilot following the completion of 
Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT)…” According to the 
applicant’s Individual Data Summary, he graduated from UPT on 
13 December 2001. This would make his initial date of 
eligibility start on 13 December 2011. Therefore, he is eligible 
to apply for ACP no earlier than 13 December 2011. 

 

The complete A1PF evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant 
on 26 August 2011 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit 
C). As of this date, this office has received no response. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing 
law or regulations. 

 

2. The application was timely filed. 

 

3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt their 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has 
not been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the 
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to 
recommend granting the relief sought in this application. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that 
the application was denied without a personal appearance; and 
that the application will only be reconsidered upon the 
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application.
