The 60 AMW 2022 airshow title is Wings Over Solano and the theme is Honoring the Past & Inspiring the Future while showcasing CA military & civilian influence in aviation.

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name

The Patriots Jet Team is a six (6) ship L-39 jet aerobatic demonstration team based in Byron CA, just an hour south of Travis AFB. Additionally, they are an all volunteer, non profit organization dedicated to inspiring youth with love of aviation and aerospace sciences. Their foundation has developed innovative educational programs that combine jet team partners with interactive STEM curricula, they will support the Travis AFB school career day in addition to other media events.

The date of the airshow is set and approved by SAF/PA. The Patriots Jet team is the only civil aerial demo team available for this event time frame.

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

The Government requires a civil multi-jet demonstration team to serve as the headlining act for the 2022 Travis AFB Airshow on 13-15 May 2022. Due to the unavailability of other civil multi-jet demonstration teams (both Thunderbirds and Blue Angels declined in Dec 2021), the Government intends to award a firm fixed-price, direct award contract to The Patriots Jet Team (Redstar Air Show, Inc.). The Patriots are a small business under the intended NAICS (711219) for this requirement and are a local organization.

Planning for future Airshows at Travis AFB will include attempts to locate other/additional qualified multi-jet demonstration teams, with availability, to serve as the headlining act.
