STATEMENT OF WORK/ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

AIRCRAFT LEASE: BOEING 767-200 AIRCRAFT

I. GENERAL

Much interest has been expressed recently from multiple Air Force (AF) programs to utilize Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for assessing aerodynamic effects in aerial refueling. Some of the interest is in direct support of the new KC-46 tanker while other interest is broader in nature covering all tanker types. The need includes both initial characterization of new tanker/receiver combinations and development of high fidelity tanker/receiver aerodynamic increments for training simulators.

To meet the need, the AF requires a surface geometry model definition of the new KC-

46. Since this model is not available from the contractor, one must be generated by performing a non-invasive laser scan of a full-scale aircraft by an independent source.

Lack of KC-46 aircraft availability dictates use of a near-equivalent 767-200 configuration. This configuration will have tanker unique parts added at a later date to build the final KC-46 model.

The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Tanker Directorate, KC-46 Division (AFLCMC/WKC) has a requirement for an aircraft lease of one (1) Boeing 767-200 with a PW4000 engine or one (1) Boeing 767-200 with another engine nacelle and separately provide PW4000 engine for the purposes of performing a non-invasive laser scan of the external mold lines.

II. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

The period of performance shall consist of a three-day period commencing no sooner than 1 June and no later than 31 August 2015. The bid provided by the contractor shall identify the three-day period most suited to their schedule.

III. AIRCRAFT UTILIZATION

Access to a 767-200 aircraft in a hangar is required for a period of three days. No maintenance shall be performed on the aircraft during the scanning process in order to minimize the chance for movement of the aircraft. The OML shall be in a ready to fly condition, i.e. no panels removed. Authorized personnel shall be available during the process to make position changes to the aircraft control surfaces.

The 767-200 aircraft and related equipment shall remain in the possession of the contractor, and shall always be under the direct control of a representative of the contracted company.

The models generated from the aircraft scan shall have a non-proprietary limited distribution of “DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT D. Distribution authorized to the

Department of Defense and U.S. DoD contractors only; contains critical technology (TBD date of determination). Other requests shall be referred to AFLCMC/WKC, 2590

LOOP ROAD WEST, WRIGHT-PATTERSON AFB OH 45433-7142.”

IV. AIRCRAFT REQUIREMENTS / CONFIGURATION

A. Aircraft / General : The Contractor shall provide one (1) aircraft that, at time of delivery:

1. Is a Boeing 767-200 with PW4000 engines or Boeing 767-200 with another engine nacelle and separately provide access to a PW4000 nacelle with engine.

2. The aircraft shall be provided at a CONUS location of the contractor’s choosing. The contractor shall identify the facility and timeframe the aircraft shall be available.

3. The aircraft control surfaces shall be set to the following positions for the scans:

a. Clean configuration with high lift surfaces in the cruise position and other control surfaces in the neutral position.

b. High lift surfaces in the takeoff position (flaps 20) and each of the other control surfaces at maximum up deflection.

c. High lift surfaces in the landing position (flaps 30) and each of the other control surfaces at maximum down deflection.

d. High lift surfaces in the intermediate position of flaps 5.

4. The engine nacelles shall be in the cruise (non-thrust reverser) position.

5. Permission shall be granted by the contractor to the scanning contractor to apply temporary non-residue tape or other coverings (blue light tack painters tape or similar) over transparencies to aid in capturing surface contours. Personnel performing the scans shall have permission to also apply removable targets on other surfaces as an aid in aligning scans from multiple locations.

6. Passenger window shades shall be down to eliminate unnecessary scans of the interior. Ground equipment shall be kept away from the aircraft as much as is practical to avoid interference with the laser scans.

B. Logistics Support

1. The aircraft provider shall supply operator(s), maintenance equipment and hardware for positioning the high lift and control surfaces.

2. The aircraft shall be completely enclosed in a hangar to minimize scanning errors due to winds.

3. The aircraft shall be free from other maintenance being performed to minimize movement during scans.

4. Two scissor lifts with a minimum platform area of two (2) square feet apiece are required to provide sufficient height above the aircraft for to scanning the upper surface of the aircraft and apply/remove tape and targets. An operator for the lifts is also required. If available, an unpowered maintenance stand of sufficient height can be substituted for the scissor lifts.

5. Standard 110VAC is required to power portable scanning equipment and/or battery chargers.
