SUMMARY OF QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Under Exhibit A, Scope of Work Section 10, Paragraph C – Regarding the adding of an ATP to initial or recurrent training for the King Air 350

For the KA 350 Initial course, adding an ATP is no issue (can be completed in conjunction with the type rating check ride).

However, for a recurrent course, it should be noted this requires a different FAA Part 142 course footprint/syllabus for adding the ATP to a recurrent course (adds 3 more sim sessions – a recommendation ride, LOFT and check ride).

This course is 8 days long vs. only 3 days for regular recurrent (Ground school required to be completed up front before sim sessions).

Additionally, the pilot is required to be scheduled as a single pilot (vs. a crew) to achieve the ATP during recurrent training.

To avoid confusion, we recommend this be listed as a King Air 350 Recurrent plus ATP as a separate course and pricing. (Just a quick note - Due to the variating course footprint, the RC + ATP course cannot be converted at last minute from a standard recurrent to a recurrent with ATP, as this requires a TCE to be added for the ATP practical check ride, as well as additional sims).

Could the IFB be amended to reflect this? (as well as Attachment #2)

PLEASE SEE ADDENDUM 1

Under Section M. Preference and Incentive Programs

1. Small/Micro Business Preference (preference not to exceed $50,000)
