Interesting air-to-air comms on 123.650 this evening between Firebird (N352FB) and a civil-registered PC-12 (N812GS). Both originated from Deer Valley.
Both were holding in a 360 pattern near Ben Avery Shooting Facility and then started downtown toward Phoenix Sky Harbor.

Caught: "OK, we're done here if the VIPs are happy, we'll start back downtown and give you a call."

And: "We'll have to coordinate to get in, all I see is a long line coming in from California."

While both are circling the west edge of PHX, at 8:21 PM: "OK, our guy is on the ground." Still have both aircraft circling but no further air-to-air comms.

Phoenix Police Department operates a FLIR-equipped PC-12 and sometimes this aircraft does work for CBP using PPD pilots.

Sorry for the duplicate post.

They do, but isn't that N620FB? The aircraft in question (N812GS) is registered to FLIR Systems Aviation, LLC.
