Things to watch (6)
From the version posted Oct 26, 2026.
- Serious: Approved sources only. Offers from firms that are not Government-approved sources are ineligible, so a business without that approval cannot win.
- Serious: Quantity and unit not stated. The text gives no quantity or unit of issue, and a quote is priced per unit.
- Serious: FAA-certified parts with Form 8130-3. Only suppliers that can provide FAA release certificates can be used, which shuts out general parts dealers.

- Worth checking: No drawings available. You cannot see the part drawings, so only firms that already know the part can price it.
- Worth checking: New spares only. Refurbished, remanufactured or repaired material makes an offer ineligible.
- Worth checking: Distributor letter due with the offer. Distributors must include the source's letter on its letterhead when they send the offer, or the offer is at risk.
