The Rental Offer Program
As fire activity increases and exceeds the capabilities of the normal
aircraft fleet, the Division of Forestry acquires rental aircraft (with
pilots) on an incidental basis.
Rental Aircraft Offers are only accepted from certified air carrier/commercial
operators under Federal Aviation Regulation 14CFR parts 121, 125, 133,
135 or 137 as appropriate. The vendor shall obtain all necessary licenses
and permits, plus comply with all applicable federal, state and local
laws. The Division of Forestry generally requires that pilots and aircraft
possess a current United States Forest Service-Dept. of Agriculture
(USFS) or the Office of Aircraft Services-Dept. of Interior (OAS) Qualification
Card and shall present the card for identification upon request.
The Division of Forestry accepts Aircraft Offers between Jan 1st and
March 15th each year for the upcoming fire season.
