I'll try.

AF has announced a few plans for reductions

- Early retirement, with at least 15 years service you could retire, vs the normal 20

- Voluntary sep (VSP), waive a variety of service commitments and pay you severance to leave early if you volunteer

- RIF, non-voluntary sep, waive commitments and pay you less than if you vol'd. Occurs after first two programs run their course

About two weeks ago, AF approved a bunch of early retirements. Still no answers on the second.

Bottom line, at this point, there are now a few more people entering the job market (maybe 100s, not even close to thousands). If they approve VSP, that'd be more. How many? No idea.
