That is incorrect. If that were the case, all aviators would get the same flight pay. It's based on rank and longevity.
At the OP: It's definitely interesting times we live in. I hear excellent arguments from every corner. Hopefully it all works out in the end and the warfighter on the ground gets whats he needs.
