SECTION 1
DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
1.0. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES: The contractor (or in the case of a contractor Team Arrangement (TA), the entity of the contractor TA operating the aircraft) shall provide all personnel, training, supervision, fully operational equipment, facilities, supplies and any items and services necessary to perform international long-range and short-range airlift services in support of the Department of Defense (DOD) during peacetime and during Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) activation, unless otherwise specified in this Performance Work Statement (PWS) as Government-furnished materials or services. The Government shall be given full use of the entire aircraft, unless otherwise stated. All aircraft utilized shall be licensed, operated and maintained in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Department of Transportation (DOT). In addition, all applicable rules and regulations of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), as well as requirements of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), shall apply. The aircraft will not be considered public aircraft while performing missions under this contract. Services under this contract shall include passenger, cargo and aeromedical transportation.

1.1.1. CONTRACTOR REPRESENTATIVE: A contractor representative shall be available, in person or via telephone, at all originating, enroute, turnaround, and terminating points, at least three hours in advance of all scheduled trip departures or actual arrivals (whichever is earlier). This representative shall be responsible for providing necessary information and coordinating with Government personnel, and shall have the authority to react to and effect necessary changes.

1.1.2.2. SEAT BLOCKING: The Government may utilize up to the maximum standard ACL for passengers and their allowable baggage. The contractor shall not be allowed to block off any area of the aircraft for nonuse or load route support crew or equipment over the maximum standard ACL unless a waiver is received from the Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) in advance. However, on all long-range international flights, contractors are authorized to block up to three seats for flight attendant crew rest. These seats shall be designated and approved prior to the start of a mission and shall be easily identified as “AMC Approved Crew Rest Seats”. Unless otherwise pre-approved by the ACO, these seats may only be used for flight attendant rest during mission operation and not for movement of pilots, mechanics or other route support.
