Amendment 1 Attachment: Questions and Answers

Section: N/A Paragraph: N/A Question: Will the Government require TDFM radios or Sat phones be installed in these aircraft?

Answer: The Government is not requesting the vendor to install TDFM radio, sat phone, or AFF.

Section: B5 Paragraph: B5.2.10 Question: The additional circuit breaker positions requested. Can these be in a sub panel (recessed under the main panel, but still pilot and maintainer accessible)?

Answer: Yes, as long as additional circuit breaker positions are accessible by pilot and maintainers and do not inhibit aircraft controls.

Section: B5 Paragraph: B5.1.5 Question: Paint – the RFP requests a three-color scheme. We wanted to confirm the three-color request, as it adds significant cost to the aircraft.

Answer: The Government is requesting a two-color paint scheme. The three-color scheme listed in the solicitation was a mistake. DOI will provide color and scheme drawings upon reward.

Section: N/A Paragraph: N/A Question: Throttle quadrant – Are there going to be any extra holes needed for future (recessed) data connectors in the throttle quadrant?

Answer: Not required at this time.

Section: N/A Paragraph: N/A Question: Does the Government anticipate needing or purchasing accessories like belly pods / floats / skis or similar in the future for these aircraft?

Answer: If additional accessories like belly pod, floats, skis, etc are required in the future, DOI will purchase those items separate from this contract.
