‘Airplane Maintenance — 3x Dornier Do228’

The German Aerospace Center, acting for its flight experiments facility, intends to award a frame agreement for maintenance services relating to the three (3) research aircraft Dornier Do228 over a period of four (4) years. The general tasks of the maintenance services are based on Dornier TLMCM LUMP check, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICAs) and maintenance due lists based on following data: — Aircraft Make: Dornier; — Aircraft Model: DO228-(101/212/202K); — Aircraft Serial No 5093 (D-CODE)/8180 (D-CFFU)/8112 (D-CEFD); — Regulation: DEU-GCAA; — Engines: 2x Honeywell TPE 331-10, 4x Honeywell TPE-331-5. The twin-engine turboprop Dornier Do228 is primarily used for remote-sensing missions by the German Aerospace Center. It has a large box-shaped cabin and large cabin floor openings. This makes it especially well suited for setting up special camera systems such as the High Resolution Stereo Cameras (HRSC), which are also used for space observation. Digital sensors are installed as required. These sensors deliver optical remote sensing data in the infrared spectrum in high resolution. The so-called multi- and hyperspectral sensors were developed by the German Aerospace Center in cooperation with its partners.
