ittachod as Inclesure #1, herctc, is c sche‘lule which expresses
cn a ‘lay-te-day basis our activitics in deecntcination, uaintenoncc,

test hops, end other proparaticn fcr a shot cn « seven (7) aay sche ‘ule.

Usins the oreeccure iicntioned abeve after the next shot, we will be able
to advise you as to tho closencss with which wo have been able to moct

this tentative work schedule. Plocse ncto that this scheuio is based
on having only the B-36 Samplers ecntanincted. Hirsh contarinaticn of

the B-36 Contrel aircraft, as cccurred on BRAVO “ay, will cripple us
sovercly.

In tho event thet it is ycur desire to fire any shot cn a sche“ulo

of less than seven days following the previous shot, this will not nccn
that we will not be able to perticipate, rathor, it will resn that wo

will not be able to participate with 100 percent cf critical airer-ft.

For exarplo, on a five Jay sche*ule we could previte cne B36 Sarpler
on one shct, two the next, ono the next, two the noxt, cte. In F-84's,

we coulc prebably provide cizht tc ton cn ca five “ny schedule an} ton to
twelve on a six dzy sche-ule,.
