About

A government agency is seeking a supplier for helicopter survey flights to conduct low-altitude, low-airspeed visual surveys of feral horses within specified Equine Management Zones to classify animals into age categories based on visual features. The surveys require a helicopter with fuel, a pilot, and a fuel truck with driver; proposals may be submitted for the entire list of surveys or for all surveys based out of one of three airports but may not be further subdivided. Surveys are ideally scheduled across consecutive days with a break between airports, with total days estimated at 5–8 though the exact number per EMZ depends on weather conditions and available daylight hours. The geographic scope is shown in Figures 1 and 2 for general reference.
