1.1.1 Overview Description of Services/Introduction. The Contractor shall provide all management, personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform test flight flying services as defined in this Performance Work Statement except for those items specified as Base Support Services. The Contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.

This includes the planning, coordination, and surveillance of the activities necessary to ensure disciplined work performance and timely resources application to accomplish all tasking under the contract.

1.2 Background. The 412th Operations Group executes developmental flight test and evaluation of aircraft weapon systems in support of Global Power, Reach, and Vigilance. Safe and effective flight test requires many support resources, including aircraft to serve as targets, and fly safety and photo chase. This role has primarily been supported with F-16s, which has become a constrained resource. An experiment to determine what portion of the chase and target mission can be supported with contractor provided aircraft was approved for FY2018.

1.3 Objectives. The primary objective is to provide target and chase support for the 412 Test Wing mission of developmental flight test. A secondary objective is to support missions that enable developmental flight test.

1.4 Scope. The Contractor shall provide 100 or more support hours. Support primarily includes test support by flying as an aerial target, and providing safety and photo chase for the system under test. Support can also include providing an aircraft to perform chase upgrades, flying as a target for pilot proficiency sorties, and Qual Eval sorties in support of enabling developmental flight test. Some missions may require the contractor pilot to have prior experience in military jet aircraft.

1.4.1 Contractor Aircraft

The Contractor shall: Provide aircraft that carry a valid FAA airworthiness certificate for Non-public use activities that are similar to the mission to be performed under this PWS for the duration of the contract.
