Standards and Policies. Most standards and policies regarding the use of aircraft are similar between agencies. When differences exist, the policy standards for the operator of the aircraft for the jurisdictional agency apply. Contracted aircraft are required to follow the agency policy(ies) they are contracted under. (See below.) On State and FPA fires aviation operations must be in compliance with: 1) The jurisdictional state’s Aviation Plan, Directives, and State Aviation Procedures Manuals. 2) The aircraft procurement document (i.e., a State contract, or a Federal agency’s aircraft contract).
