4.8.2.2 Incident Response Coordination

In the event of an intrusion or potential intrusion, the contractor agrees to allow follow-on actions by the

Government to further characterize and evaluate the suspect activity. The contractor acknowledges that damage assessments might be necessary to ascertain intruder methodology and identify systems compromised as a result of the intrusion. Contractor acknowledges that in certain cases a complete forensic analysis might be necessary to ascertain intruder methodology and identify systems compromised as a result of the intrusion. Once an intrusion is identified, the contractor agrees to take all reasonable and appropriate steps to preserve any and all evidence, information, data, logs, electronic files and similar type information (reference NIST Special Publication 800-61:

Computer Security Incident Handling Guide, (current version)) related to the intrusion for subsequent forensic analysis so that an accurate and complete damage assessment can be accomplished by the Government. The contractor is not required to maintain an organic forensic capability, but must ensure data is preserved (e.g.

removing an affected system, while still powered on, from the network meets the intent of this requirement) and all actions documented until forensic analysis can be performed by the Government or mutually agreed upon third party

(e.g. Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC), commercial security contractor, etc.). Any follow-on actions shall be coordinated with the contractor via the CCOR.

4.10 ADDITIONAL STANDARDS FOR DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE (DOD) CONTRACT AIRCRAFT

OPERATIONS UNDER FAR PART 135 (NONCOMMUTER)(PASSENGER)

All aircraft must be listed on air carrier’s certificate, and flight crews must be trained, qualified, and scheduled in accordance with Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR Part 135) rules. This applies even when the contracted operations fall under FAR Part 91 or other FAR. In addition, air carriers shall comply with the following:

a. Operations:

(1) Pilots are responsible for ensuring correct computing and documenting of the weight and balance for all

DOD flights and for assuring that the gross weight and center of gravity do not exceed the aircraft’s limitations.

Actual or interrogated weights must be used. Completed weight and balance forms from DOD flights will be maintained for a minimum of 30 days.

(2) Companies are required to maintain the last 30 days documentation for all DOD flights to demonstrate compliance with the flight locating requirements of FAR 135.79.

(3) Single-engine aircraft shall be limited to flight during daylight hours and under Visual Flight Rules

(VFR) conditions only. Daylight hours are defined as 30 minutes before official sunrise to 30 minutes after official sunset; or in Alaska during extended twilight hours when terrain features can be readily distinguishable for a distance of at least one mile.

(4) All DOD passenger charters will be flown under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) to the maximum extent possible.

(5) Helicopter Operations Only:

(a) Multi-engine helicopters may be used for night and instrument flight rules (IFR) operations providing the operator’s certificate specifies such operations.

(b) US Navy Contracted Shipboard Landings: The pilot shall have completed training that is approved by the Navy and meet subsequent proficiency and currency requirements to ensure standardization with shipboard guidelines.

b. Aircrew Requirements:

(1) A pilot- in-command (PIC) and second- in-command (SIC) will be used:

(a) For all fixed-wing, whole-plane charters, except for flights supporting US Army Corps of

Engineers operations-only missions.

(b) If the aircraft certificate requires a two-pilot crew, or has seating configuration for ten or more passengers.

(c) When the aircraft is operated under IFR.

(2) PIC and SIC (when required), must have at least 250 hours combined experience in their respective positions in the type of aircraft being operated. Type (as defined in FAR 135.293b) means any one of a group of airplanes as determined by the Federal Aviation Administration, (FAA)) to have a similar means of propulsion, the same manufacturer, and no significantly different handling or flight characteristics. For helicopters, type (as defined in FAR 135.293b) means a basic make and model.

(a) The PIC’s prior SIC time does not count towards the 250- hour requirement.

(b) The PIC must have 1,500 hours total pilot time and have logged 100 hours PIC time in the past 12 months.

(c) The PIC must have at least 10 takeoffs and 10 landings, and 50 hours in the type and model aircraft being operated.

(d) Float plane PICs must have at least 250 total hours in floatplane operations.

(3) The PIC and SIC (when required), shall be IFR qualified; i.e., both shall hold a commercial instrument rating for all DOD flights regardless of the weather or type of flight plan filed. (Not required for operations restricted to VFR only).

(a) Both pilots shall meet the currency requirements of FAR 135.247

(b) The PIC shall have a current FAR 135.297 instrument proficiency check and a current FAR Part

135.293 competency check.

(c) The SIC shall have a current FAR 135.293 competency check to include as a minimum one precision approach, one nonprecision approach, and one missed approach. The SIC must meet the instrument currency requirements of FAR 61.57(c).

(1) If the SIC is assigned to pilot only one type of aircraft for the DOD, that pilot must meet the instrument requirements of this section in that type of aircraft.

(2) If the SIC is assigned to pilot more than one type of aircraft for the DOD, that pilot must meet the instrument requirements of this section in each type of aircraft and the check shall alternate between the different types of aircraft that the pilot operates for the DOD.

c. Aircraft:

(1) Will have two or more engines (except for helicopters, float planes, and aircraft supporting U.S. Army

Corps of Engineers operations-only missions).

(a) Meet the IFR performance requirements of FAR 135.181.

(b) Be turbine powered if more than nine passengers are carried.

(2) Aircraft will also meet the following standards:

(a) Will be maintained in a good state of repair and appearance. Aircraft showing deterioration or neglect such as unrepaired cracks, punctures, loose rivets, missing fasteners, deterioration of interior, paint, or windows are unacceptable for DOD use. These concerns are in addition to airworthiness requirements.

(b) Have on board, a complete set of aeronautical charts, and approach plates (for each required pilot), covering the area of operation.

(c) Have a first-aid kit and emergency equipment, accessible to the passengers and appropriate to the environment of operation.

(d) Have approved life preservers for overwater flights in accordance with FAR Part 91.205b (12), and helicopters will have emergency flotation gear (pop-out) or standard flotation gear (fixed floats).

(3) Aircraft operated single pilot for the DOD will possess the following navigation and communication equipment:

(a) Directional gyro

(b) Artificial horizon

(c) Rate of turn indicator

(d) Vertical speed indicator

(e) One type of FAA-approved navigation equipment such as an automatic direction finder (ADF) receiver system, with ADF indicator; VOR; global positioning system (GPS)/Loran, etc. A GPS shall be available for operations in remote areas where other navigational aids are not available.

(f) One ATC transponder for all Navy shipboard operations.

(g) An emergency locator transmitter (ELT).

(h) At least one Very High Frequency (VHF) receiver and transmitter.

(4) In addition to

(3) Above, aircraft operated with two pilots for the DOD shall be equipped for IFR operations and possess the following navigation and communication equipment.

(a) Two independent navigation systems suitable for the location served, at least one navigation system will include VOR/DME capability.

(b) Dual VHF receivers and transmitters.

(c) Capability to perform a precision approach other than a ground controlled approach (GCA).

(d) A transponder.

(5) The SIC position (when required to be filled) must include the following operable equipment:

(a) The ability to manipulate all primary and auxiliary flight controls, lift/drag devices, and landing gear.

(b) Airspeed indicator.

(c) Altimeter.

(d) Artificial horizon.

(e) Gyroscopic direction indicator or equivalent.

(f) An independent navigation system.
