This federal Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), a civilian government agency, to National Test Pilot School Inc., a private non-profit educational institution located in Mojave, California. The $3.92 million single-award contract enables the school to provide a range of specialized aviation training courses for flight test pilots and flight test engineers over the performance period through March 2025. The contract was originally solicited as a requirement for the FAA to obtain technical training courses covering topics such as flight performance, stability and control, human factors evaluations, and engine operating characteristics. Under this IDC, National Test Pilot School Inc. will develop and present nine courses, provide quality assurance, training facilities and equipment, evaluate student performance, and issue training completion certificates. This supports the FAA's need for advanced technical flight test training services. The contract includes multiple firm-fixed-price delivery orders issued to date, valued up to $72,250 each, for courses such as aircraft stability and control, human factors evaluations, and engine operating characteristics. National Test Pilot School Inc. is an experienced federal contractor, holding several IDV contracts with the FAA and Department of Defense to provide these types of specialized aviation training capabilities.
