Into-Plane Refueling.

Abstract

Into-plane contracts are awarded by the Defense Fuel Supply Center (DFSC), a field level activity of the Defense Logistics Agency. Into-plane contracts allow DoD aircraft that land at commercial airports to obtain quality fuel from suppliers at lower prices than regular retail prices. Noninto-plane fuel is any category of fuel purchased by pilots at commercial airports from noncontract sources. During FY 1990, DFSC paid contractors $127.9 million for fuel purchased under 370 into- plane contracts. In addition, DoD Components purchased $83.6 million of higher priced noninto-plane fuel, of which $14 million was purchased at commercial airports where into-plane contracts were established.
