Aircraft must meet detailed technical specifications including avionics, communications, navigation, and safety equipment. The Contractor must also provide a qualified mechanic and maintain the aircraft under an FAA-approved maintenance program. The work is performed throughout the contiguous United States, Alaska, and occasionally Canada and Mexico.
