Banked Time for AD and IAD time may only be combined if the member is on continuous orders for more than 30 days or if the AD period extends unbroken over parts of two months. Banked IAD time may be used in the five succeeding months.
Order of Application
The following is an example of?

Example: Determining an ARC member's flight requirement: a member was placed on status on 3 February (AO effective date) and performed active duty from 5-10 February. Calculate the number of days the member was on flying status based on the effective date of the AO. Use the fractions of a calendar month table to determine the member's flight requirements (AD and IAD) for the month. Use the Active Duty column to determine the AD requirement and the Inactive Duty column to determine the IAD requirement for the month. In this example, the member was on flying status for a total of 26 days in the month of February in which the member incurred 0.8 hours (5-10 Feb = 6 days) of AD and 1.4 hours (26 - 6 = 20 days) of IAD flight requirements for the month.
Order of Application for ARC pay.
AD Flight Hours Application Rules
•First, apply AD flight time to the AD flight hour requirement in the month earned.

•Second, apply the current month's insufficient/excess AD flight time to the current month's IAD flight hour requirement.

•Third, apply the current month's insufficient AD flight time and excess/insufficient IAD flight time to the current month's AD flight hour requirement. Note: The AD flight hour requirement is always satisfied before the IAD flight hour requirement if the IAD flight hour requirement is not met.

•Fourth, apply the current month's insufficient AD flight time plus the insufficient IAD flight time to the current month's IAD flight hour requirement.

•Fifth, apply the insufficient AD flight time plus any AD banked flight time to the AD flight hour requirement.
TRUE OR FALSE

The AD flight hour requirement is always satisfied before the IAD flight hour requirement if the IAD flight hour requirement is not met.
TRUE
IAD Flight Hours Application Rules
•First, IAD flight time must be applied to the IAD flight hour requirement in the current month.

•Second, if insufficient flight time was accrued to satisfy the IAD flight hour requirement, apply insufficient IAD flight time to the current month's AD flight hour requirement.

•Third, apply the insufficient IAD flight time and insufficient AD flight hours to the current month's IAD flight hour requirement.

•Fourth, apply the current month's insufficient IAD flight time and insufficient AD flight time plus the IAD banked flight time to the current month's IAD flight hour requirement.
