About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command's 366th Contracting Squadron has awarded a single-source contract to Planes of Fame Air Museum for a Dissimilar Formation aerial demonstration at the Gunfighter Skies 2026 Air Show Event at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho. The contract, FA489726P0014, was awarded on March 25, 2026, for $42,000.00 and requires the museum to provide three historic fighter aircraft—an F-86, P-47, and P-51—to perform coordinated formation flights and individual flyby demonstrations showcasing integrated air power capabilities. The award was justified under FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Responsible Source) because Planes of Fame Air Museum is the sole contractor possessing all three aircraft in airworthy condition with the demonstrated capability and experience necessary to safely execute this specialized dissimilar formation flying requirement. The contracting officer determined that no other source was reasonably available to meet this unique requirement, making the single-source award in the government's best interest due to the significant integration risks associated with coordinating aircraft with vastly different performance characteristics.
