CJC:69026
1 December 1969
We are forwarding the enclosed Proposal CJC:6 for a system
of purging the telescope assembly. The proposal is submitted in
response to suggestions by field personnel that a system be devised
whereby the system could be purged externally. Purging the telescope
in the present configuration requires that the dome assembly be removed
and each side of the telescope purged separately. The purge system
allows the telescope to be purged by removing only the system purge
port and two screws from the manifold. A manifold assembly is installed
inside the system purge port. The two chambers of the telescope are
connected in a series using Tygon tubing. The tubing also connects
the intake and vent port on the telescope to the manifold assembly.
The telescope is purged by removing the system purge port and two screws
of the manifold assembly and connecting nitrogen to one manifold port
and venting through the other port for approximately five minutes.
Recent findings suggest that the telescope be purged at each
preflight and post flight inspection. It is recommended that the
proposed change incorporating the proposed purging system be accom-
plished in the next factory overhaul; however, if you do not feel that
this is soon enough, field installation is feasible. Kits can be made
available in about thirty days after approval from you.
Enclosure (1) is a summary of the cost to fabricate and install
thirteen each surge systems, twelve for the production group and one
spare.

We have reviewed the referenced contract and have the following
comments to offer:
1. It is our understanding that AG-1103 is strictly a repair
contract. Outside of minor necessary materials, all new spare parts
to be used with this contract will have originated under AG-1100 or
AG-1104.
2. It is our further understanding that all work chargeable to
this contract snail be authorized by a Depot Work Order or an approval
from Headquarters. In effect there is no "sustaining" ' money in this
contract; such sustaining requirements will be met under AG-1100 until
30 June 1970 after which a new contract will be negotiated.
3. We are unable
to
execute the certificate, page 3, of this con-
tract since the holders
of
the Corporate seal are not cleared nor
aware of
the existence
of
this contract.
)4. In accordance with the Changes Clause, it is requested that
the following; changes to Appendix I, Exhibit A to the contract be
approved:
a. Under paragraph 3, besides the 11;0' materials charge, the
computer automatically applies a 14.8% G&A as a DCAA
approved charge. The 14.8' G&A, the eerore, needs to be
added to paragraph 3. (= 'f ``' 1 1 /i ct
b. under paragraph 4, travel costs, although covered by riy
outside criecking account at cost, also are charged with
a 14.8% G&A as "other costs" when I submit a request for
additional funds for my account. The 14.8% G&A also needs
to be added to paragraph 4.
With your concurrence of the foregoing, we are executing the AG-1103
Contract and forwarding herewith Copies 1 and 3.
