Highlights
A former Air Force member appealed the denial of a waiver of the claim against him for erroneous overpayment of flight pay. A partial waiver of the erroneously paid flight pay may be authorized because the member accumulated substantial excess flying time during the month in which he became incapacitated and might have expected to receive flight pay for up to 5 months based on this accumulated excess pay. Since the member did not bring the erroneous payments to the attention of knowledgeable officials, he was considered at fault, and waiver of the remaining overpayments was precluded.
