DESCRIPTION / SPECIFICATIONS

C-5 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE

(a) Offered aircraft shall be maintained in accordance with the OEM’s most recent revision of inspection program applicable to the serial number of the aircraft being inspected or an inspection program approved by the FAA under the Contractor’s 14 CFR 135 operations specification. All maintenance shall be accomplished in accordance with the standards established by 14 CFR Part 43, 91, and 135 standards and this Agreement.

(b) The Contractor shall identify the maintenance facilities and/or maintenance personnel used to fulfill the requirements of this Agreement, including those covered under 14 CFR 135.426.

(c) Aircraft operated with components and accessories on approved Time Between Overhaul (TBO) extension programs are acceptable, provided the Contractor who provides the aircraft is the holder of the approved extension authorization (not the owner, if the aircraft is leased), and shall operate in accordance with the extension.

(d) Offered aircraft shall be in compliance with all applicable Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airworthiness Directives (AD’s) as per 14 CFR 91.417 (a)(2)(v), and Service Bulletins (SB’s) with a time compliance requirement, referenced in an FAA Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) or are designated mandatory by the manufacturer.

Each aircraft’s maintenance schedule shall include mandatory component retirement, replacement or overhaul time as specified in the OEM Airworthiness Limitations Section or equivalent OEM document and shall be in compliance with them.

Each aircraft shall be in compliance with all OEM (recommended or mandatory) programs, documents and resultant inspections from programs such as Continued Airworthiness Programs (CAP), Structural Inspection Documents (SID), Supplemental Structural Inspection Documents (SSID) Corrosion Prevention and Control Programs (CPCP) and Electrical Wiring Interconnection Systems (EWIS) programs.

(e) All maintenance shall be accomplished in accordance with the standards established by 14 CFR Part 135; Advisory Circular (AC) 43.13, and the manufacturer's instructions and in accordance with those procedures established in the Contractor's maintenance program approved under 14 CFR Part 135 Operations Specifications.

(f) A copy of the current maintenance record required by 14 CFR 91.417 shall be kept at the Home Base or maintenance facility. Additionally, aircraft maintenance record entries and aircraft flight logs shall be transmitted to the operator’s home base (location the certificate is held) every 12 flight hours or 7 days - whichever occurs first.

(g) A functional check flight shall be performed at the Contractor's expense following overhaul, repair, and replacement of any engine (installations of reciprocating engines that are new, rebuilt, or overhauled shall accumulate 3 hours of operation, including 2 hours in flight, prior to Government use), power train, or control equipment, and following any adjustment of the flight control systems before the aircraft resumes service under this Agreement. The result of any test flight shall be logged in the aircraft flight records by the Pilot. Results of test flights shall be reported to the U.S. Forest Service Aircraft Maintenance Inspector (AMI) before the aircraft is returned to availability.

Amendment 01

SECTION C

DESCRIPTION / SPECIFICATIONS

(h) When any non-scheduled maintenance or repairs are performed due to mechanical or equipment deficiencies, an AMI shall be notified for "return to Agreement available” status, before the aircraft performs under the Agreement.

(i) The Interagency Airplane Data Record Card or Point-to-Point Aircraft Data Card shall be posted inside the aircraft.

(j) The aircraft’s required weight and balance data shall be determined by actual weighing of the aircraft every 36 calendar months for multi-engine aircraft. Mission Use Only single engine aircraft shall be weighed within the previous five (5) years. Data shall include an accurate and updated equipment list.

All weighing of aircraft shall be performed on scales that have been certified. The certifying agency may be any accredited weights and measures laboratory.

(k) Authorized Break - During the standby period, requirements may be modified by the CO to allow Contractor's personnel time off away from the assigned work location or to conduct routine maintenance. No deduction of availability will be made for such authorized breaks except when Contractor personnel fail to return to Standby upon request. Requests will be coordinated with the appropriate regional maintenance inspector For Exclusive use aircraft with a MAP of 120 days or more, no more than 2 periods or breaks of 48 hours each maximum shall be allowed during the MAP without penalty and must be coordinated with the CO or COR. For those aircraft contracted with a MAP of less than 120 days, 1 period or break of 2 days (48 hours) will be allowed. For “Call When Needed” aircraft there will be no authorized break or period unless the aircraft has been assigned for 18 consecutive or more days and is coordinated with the CO and the regional AMI. The maximum allowed break or period for “call when needed” aircraft shall not exceed 24 hours. The authorized absence during the map for any exclusive use aircraft to transition from assigned locations will not be used for any of these allowed maintenance periods.

(l) Mechanics assigned to work on aircraft shall have appropriate FAA certification and ratings or, if at a 145 Repair Station, shall at all times be working in the presence of one so certified and rated. Additionally,

(1) Pilots without FAA airframe and power plant (A&P) certifications are authorized to perform only the preventative maintenance tasks detailed under 14 CFR 43 Appendix A, Section (c), provided they have been properly trained under the direct supervision of an appropriately rated mechanic and designated in writing by the Contractor as proficient in each task to be performed.

(2) When the aircraft is not available due to required unscheduled maintenance, a pilot may function as a mechanic only if they possess a valid FAA mechanic certificate with the appropriate airframe and/or power plant ratings or if they are performing preventative maintenance in accordance with 14 CFR 43.3.

SECTION C

All time in excess of two (2) hours (not necessarily consecutive) must also apply against the pilot's flight limitations. After two

(2) hours, every hour spent as a mechanic, or a pilot performing preventative maintenance, will be applied against pilot flight time limitation one-to-one.

(4) Only a certificated mechanic (holding an airframe and power-plant rating) may perform scheduled maintenance and inspections. The primary or relief pilot on duty as a pilot must not perform scheduled maintenance and inspections.

(i) All mechanics shall maintain the aircraft in accordance with requirements specified within this Agreement. The mechanic shall meet the requirements of 14 CFR Part 43.7(b).
