She may in fact be old and squeaky, but I'm sure that she's squawking 1200.

She flew by here earlier, you could hear it coming for almost 10 minutes

Thanks for that and Delta 6 is at Aeroflex, not quite like my Sweak/ Squawk 1200.
I know as I flew a Stearman there and also got many “surprise“ check ride deviations into there. Quite a place. I have wonder though why 107 was on patrol North sector and took off and landed from Aeroflex. Lastly are the Ag Cats gone?

They swap the helos around sometimes during routine maintenance so the locations on the above list might not be entirely accurate. The state contracts air tankers in the spring (usually April into May) but now mostly Air Tractor 802's are used. (Type III SEAT) They hold more water than the Ag Cats. (SEAT= Single Engine Air Tanker)
