· Purpose: minor clarification in order to reflect the correct requirements per the PWS Changes made to PWS:

· Clarification has been added to PWS section 1.18 Ordering & Billing Procedures. The following text has been added “The Government will pay for the actual hours utilized; however, the contractor will be paid no less than the minimum quantity of hours in the corresponding pricing band. For example if an order is placed for 3,000 hours and the actual hours were 2950, the contractor will invoice for 2,950 at the hourly rate outlined in the bid schedule. Another example is if the Government orders 2,600 hours (Pricing Band 3, Option Year 1) but only uses 2,400 hours (Pricing Band 2), the Government will pay for 2,501 hours (minimum hours for Pricing Band 3).”

The contractor is responsible for being able to provide as many aircraft as they deem fit to be able to meet the PWS requirements: “Training events outlined below may require up to five simultaneous aircraft to be scheduled two times daily during normal operations tempo.
