UTILIZATION OF MILITARY AIRCRAFT IN BUREAU CASES
In connection with a recent aircraft hijacking, inquiries were made concerning the use of military aircraft to assist in a search. The question of reimbursement was raised. This matter has been discussed with the Department of Defense (DOD).
Advice has been received from DOD that military air- craft may be utilized for non-DOD purposes only when: (1) their movement is pursuant to an emergency involving imminent loss of life; (2) is specifically authorized by statute; (3) is in direct support of the military mission; or (4) is certified by the head of a Federal department or agency to be in the national interest and commercial transportation is not available. This is set forth in Department of Defense Directive #4500.9, dated November 29, 1971.
According to DOD, Section 686 of Title 31, U. S. Code, requires in every instance the DOD be reimbursed for the total costs involved in the utilization by any other Federal agency of any aircraft or equipment made available to such agency for use in connection with its own investigation. The Department of Defense further advised should any requirements in connection with our investigations develop which come within the above guidelines, DOD will consider them on a case-by-case basis.
DOD furnished the hourly rates for the most commonly used aircraft. These rates are set forth as follows:
