Note: The requirements under this RFQ are in addition to the requirements under RFQ HTC71125QCC02, posted 31 December 2024.
For this reqiuirement, Air Operators do not need to be DoD CARB approved, per reference (a) and (b), to submit proposals for chartered air services as the aircraft will not carry Department of Defense (DoD) personnel or cargo.
