Lt. Col. Wu Fu-ching, for example, lost his life in 1980 flying an F-5A fighter. The basic salary portion of the pension his family receives has been adjusted from NT $ 8,000 to more than NT $ 20,000, but the flight supplement remains at NT $ 6,000, for a total of some NT $ 30,000 or so, just half of what a lieutenant colonel currently earns.
以民國六十九年駕 F-5A 戰機失事殉職的吳富景中尉為例，雖然他的撫卹本薪已由當年的八千元調到現在兩萬多元，但飛行加給一直維持在六千元，全部薪俸因而只有三萬多元，只及現役中尉飛官的一半。
