About this file
This document contains questions and answers regarding a request for information for expanded initial flight training. The Air Education and Training Command of the Department of the Air Force issued the RFI, which seeks individual flight training for remotely piloted aircraft and combat systems officer students rather than allowing observation of other pilots' training. Responses to a previously issued RFI on the same topic should also be reviewed. While the minimum required flight time must be met, additional training beyond requirements could make use of fixed or motion flight simulators. The related federal contract opportunity is for expanded initial flight training with solicitation number FA300224RFI-EIFT.

AETC E-IFT RFI QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Date: 13 December 2023
QUESTION ANSWER
1. With regard to those students classified as RPA and CSO, do they require individual training, or can their instruc�on be sa�sfied by observa�on of pilots who are receiving instruc�on inflight. In other words, can the requirements be sa�sfied if they are observers of someone receiving actual insturc�on while riding in a rear seat?
RPA/CSO students require individual training.
Observing pilots from a rear seat does not meet this requirement. We also recommend reviewing all previously answered ques�ons that were posted to this same RFI on sam.gov.
2. With regard to those students classified as RPA and CSO, could any part of their training occur in an AATD fixed or mo�on flight simulator?
The requirement is for actual flight �me. Addi�onal training above and beyond what is specified could be completed in a fixed or mo�on flight simulator, but all solu�ons must meet the minimum flight �me defined in the SOO.
