*Update 9 March 2026*-Questions and Answers

How does the inspection process work? Does the TPS send inspectors to inspect the aircraft at our home base prior to services or does the inspection take place at the beginning of service? What does the inspection involve? page 3 section 1.2 A)

Answer:

A. TPS will send inspectors to the vendor’s operating and/or maintenance facility. The inspectors will interview maintenance personnel, conduct visual inspections of log books/facility, and inspect the aircraft. Inspection Checklist can be provided prior to inspection. The governing source for our inspection program is the USAF Airworthiness Bulletin AWB-340A, 8 Jan 2025.

B. Inspection will occur at vendor’s maintenance facility prior to contract award. This will allow TPS to determine eligibility. However, TPS will allow corrective actions (or a get-well plan) to be complete prior to final selection. Inspections will be conducted every 2 years typically and when deemed necessary.

C. Ref Inspection Checklist. Can be made available upon request.

2.Section 1.6.1 Will there always be a company instructor pilot in the aircraft with the student or is it TPS desire for them to go solo?

Answer: The students will not solo. The CFI can be the vendor CFI or a TPS staff CFI (as agreed with vendor).

3. 1.6.5 Can the contractor have input on the time of year when the training takes place?

Answer: Yes.

4. Is mobilization and demobilization paid for getting to and from the work location?

Answer: Ferry costs can be covered. Typically, at a flat rate.

5. Section 1.8 Is fuel supplied by TPS once the contractor gets to the location? Is water supplied for water drops by TPS?

Answer: At the moment, TPS is unable to provide AVGAS (100LL) fuel at the moment. Operations requiring this type of fuel will occur from alternate location of Mojave Airport. Once TPS is able to provide AVGAS, operations will shift back to Edwards AFB (ideally). Aircraft requiring JetA will be provided by TPS and operations will be at Edwards AFB.

Water can only be provided at Mojave Airport and must be coordinated by the vendor.

6. How many pilots per year can the contractor expect on average to train under this contract? Seciton 1.6.1 talks about flight hours for each sortie, does TPS have an idea on how many sorties they would like to see or an approved curriculum they want followed? If not can the contractor follow their own developed curriculum with a set number of hours depending on the proficiency of the student?

Answer: The typical class size at TPS is 24 students. 2 classes per year. At a minimum, 48 sorties per year is expected with some additional (5-10) sorties for staff. Sortie length can vary and be discussed.

7. Will any students need the type rating exemption for the AT-802?

Answer: No. Not for the students (they will not be the PIC). However, TPS staff members may require exemption if the vendor agrees to TPS staff serving as PIC/CFI for the flights.
