STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES

DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION

AVIATION DIVISION

FLIGHT TRAINING DEVICES

1.0 OVERVIEW

The U.S. Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Aviation Division (SG) has a requirement for two (2) modern, non-motion Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved Flight

Training Devices (FTD). One FTD shall be representative of a Cessna T206H with a Garmin G1000

Avionics System and the second FTD shall be representative of a Beechcraft King Air B300 with a Garmin

G1000 Avionics System.

2.0 SCOPE

This Statement of Objectives (SOO) establishes the requirements for the FTDs. The FTDs shall include a quality visual graphic system for both visual and instrument flight simulation training. The FTDs shall be

FAA certified under Federal Aviation Regulations Section 61 and 141, that meet the requirements for a student pilot to receive “Flight Training Credit” as related under FAA 141.41 to meet the guidelines FAA

61.65(h)(2). The FTDs shall be able to replicate all phases of flight for both visual and instrument conditions and function in all areas required for instrument training. The FTDs shall not be a simple desk-top computer stand-alone design. The FTDs shall be constructed to represent a realistic cockpit to include, but not limited to, instruments, displays, switches, flight controls and any other items to replicate the flight deck of the aircraft referenced in this requirement.

The FTDs shall be endorsed by the aircraft manufacturers Cessna Aircraft Company and Beechcraft

Corporation or have supporting documentation affirming that the FTD conforms to each aircraft’s specifications, limitations, performance and handling.
