[FedCom] Government Aircraft Research

[Ken]

Well here's an interesting site that gives you an idea about the civilian 
federal government agencies that are flying aircraft includes registration 
#, type aircraft/helo, etc..  So if you are monitoring the radio (e.g. aero 
air traffic control) perhaps you might hear some of these aircraft/helos.

check out http://162.58.35.241/dev/acdatabase/acmain.htm

Do a search by name of agency:

Some examples:
Agency:  #of entries
Department of Agriculture:  13
Department of Commerce:  3
Department of Defense:  4
Department of Homeland Security:  1
Department of Interior:  1
Department of Justice:  10
Department of State:  29
Department of Veterans Affairs:  1 (ballon)
Federal Aviation Administration:  102 (not sure if all of these are really 
FAA aircraft or not)
Federal Bureau of Investigation:  17
Tennessee Valley Authority:  12
FCC:  6 (related)
US Border Patrol:  19
US Marshals Service:  2

I sure this list isn't all inclusive, especially if any aircraft/helo was 
being leased, than the lessor my actually retain the N registration number 
(and corporate name) rather than the government lessee...
