Summary

The Initial Pilot Training (IPT) opportunity, as outlined in Solicitation FA300225SC001, is a Sources Sought notice issued by the Air Education and Training Command (AETC) of the U.S. Air Force. This initiative seeks industry feedback on the draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) for a comprehensive pilot training program aimed at preparing military and international candidates for follow-on flight training. The program will encompass ground and flight training, leading to FAA certifications such as the Private Pilot Certificate (PPC), Instrument Rating (IR), and Multi-Engine (ME) qualifications. Contractors with experience in aviation training, particularly those certified under FAA regulations, are encouraged to respond, as the government is looking for innovative solutions to enhance pilot production efficiency and effectiveness. The IPT program is expected to operate within a structured timeline, with a focus on safety and compliance with FAA standards, while also addressing the logistical needs of training candidates.
