Description
NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) has a requirement for installation, testing, and operational science flights in Virginia and interior Alaska.

NASA/GSFC intends to issue a sole source contract to acquire the services from Dynamic Aviation. Dynamic Aviation is the only source available for the unique support being contracted for due to the following:

The use of the authority at 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, is justified on the basis that Dynamic Aviation is the only responsible source capable of meeting NASA Goddard-s technical, safety, and schedule requirements for the deployment of the Lidar, Hyperspectral, and Thermal (G-LiHT) airborne remote sensing system. The G-LiHT system has been specifically designed, integrated, and approved for use on Dynamic Aviation-s A90 King Air platform. NASA airworthiness and flight safety approvals—essential for mission execution in both Virginia and Alaska—are directly tied to this aircraft and its unique configuration. These requirements cannot be replicated by any other provider without incurring significant delays and costs.

Dynamic Aviation's aircraft has been structurally and electronically modified to support NASA-s remote sensing missions. Their Beechcraft King Air 200 and A90 King Air platforms are equipped with nadir ports, modified nosecones, externally mounted antennas, window fixtures, and equipment racks designed for sensor integration. This includes mechanical, electrical, and IT infrastructure specifically tailored to accommodate NASA's specialized instrumentation—such as 28V DC power systems and internal 19-inch racks for securing computers and inertial navigation systems. These modifications reduce risks associated with non-recurring engineering and eliminate the need for time-consuming re-integration work.

The A90 King Air offers a twin-engine platform with the required payload capacity of up to 4,000 pounds and a range of 1,000 naut...
