At the request of a Support Airlift General Officer Steering Group chaired by AF/RDQ, a commonality study among five administrative and operational support airlift programs was conducted. Each program is projected to acquire commercial off the shelf aircraft beginning in the mid to late 1980's. These programs are: (1) European Distribution System Aircraft (EDSA); (2) Tanker Transport Bomber (TTB) trainer for ATC; (3) Special Air Mission (SAM) aircraft to replace the C-140; (4) Replacement or modernization of the Operational Support Airlift (OSA) CT-39 fleet and; (5) Replacement Flight Check (FC) aircraft. while the airframe requirements for each of these programs are different, there is enough similarity that the potential for airframe commonality appears to exist. Also, each program is planning on a contractor logistics support (CLS) maintenance concept. This study investigated both the benefits and impacts of airframe commonality for these programs.
