C.1.1.1. PRIMARY MISSIONS The three primary narcotics missions of the AD
Counternarcotics Aviation program are eradication, training, and interdiction defined as follows:

A. ERADICATION The AD currently uses fixed wing agricultural spray aircraft and
occasionally rotary wing aircraft for aerial eradication of marijuana, coca and opium poppy. The
AD also uses utility helicopters to transport host country personnel to growing sites for manual
eradication of narcotics crops.

B. TRAINING Formal pilot training on the T-65 and OV-10 spray aircraft is conducted
by the Contractor in the conterminous United States (CONUS) as required with advanced
training conducted in certain host countries. An L-19 aircraft (Government furnished) will be
used in the training program if required. The Contractor shall provide on-the-job training of host
country pilots and Night Vision Goggle (NVG) observers in NVG operations. The Contractor
shall, to the extent approved by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR), participate in
providing formal training to implement Narcotics Affairs Section (NAS) plans to develop host
government institutional maintenance capabilities; and informal on-the-job training of host
country pilots and mechanics to fly and maintain fixed and rotary wing aircraft. Additionally,
the Contractor shall provide on-the-job training of host country pilots, NVG observers, and
mechanics in the operation of Aviation Life Support Equipment (ALSE) and NVG equipment
including inspection, maintenance, standardization and quality control.

C. INTERDICTION Utility helicopters are also used to transport host country
personnel for interdiction of narcotics processing laboratories and narcotics being transported
within the host country. These missions may be conducted day, night or under cover of darkness
using NVG equipment and procedures.

C.1.1.2. SECONDARY MISSIONS All other missions are secondary and shall be performed
in support of eradication and interdiction. These secondary missions include:

A. TRANSPORT This mission involves the movement of personnel and/or supplies
between and within host countries. Currently Casa 212 and C-208 aircraft are being used for this
purpose in Temporary Duty (TDY) deployments.

B. RECONNAISSANCE This mission involves the use of aircraft to detect fields of
illegal narcotics crops, clandestine airfields, and narcotics processing laboratories. Generally,
only spray aircraft and helicopters are used in reconnaissance missions.

C. SEARCH AND RESCUE This mission involves the use of helicopters to locate and
rescue Contractor and host country air crews and U.S. and host country law enforcement
personnel, including military. This operation deals with downed aircraft or hostile action by
narcotics producers or traffickers.

D. MEDICAL EVACUATION (MEDEVAC) This mission involves the use of
aircraft and equipment to evacuate personnel injured by accidents or hostile action.

E. FERRY This mission involves the movement of aircraft from one host country to
another and within countries. The Contractor is responsible for most ferry operations.
Helicopters are normally moved to a designated location for shipment on an AD scheduled Air
Force C-5, C-17, C-130, or C-141.

F. MAINTENANCE This mission includes functional check flights following
maintenance actions.

C.1.2. AIRCRAFT Aircraft covered under this contract include the type and number of aircraft
