  • Contract Summary

    The Light Aircraft Flying Task (LAFT) 2 Contract provides Aircraft, Qualified Flying Instructors and Services to support University Air Squadrons. Furthermore, it also supports Air Experience Flying, Army grading, Royal Navy grading and streaming, support to Elementary Flying Training (EFT) as part of UK Military Flying Training System (UK MFTS) as required, and other Defence tasks as required, such as international training. This contract has been deemed to be both operationally and reputationally important due to the close links it has with Universities and Air Cadet Squadrons, and the subsequent impact this has on recruitment and public image.

The Authority objectives of this RFI are as follows: 1. To advise suppliers of a potential Air Command procurement. 2. To gain an understanding of the market capacity for supplying these services. 3.
