I don't know that 131EC is available for civilian use. It's operated on a Restricted Certificate under government contract. Last "white" activity I can find on it seems to be when it flew from KABQ to KAEX back in Nov. 2008.

Not sure if she is either, she did do the American Gangster footage a few years back. She was on the Kirtland side about 5 months ago.

Would be interesting to see what they're doing with her now.

There were reports back in 2005 that she was being used to air recover drones.

(BTW, I've kinda kept an eye on the plane as much as possible because she's one of the first Snow Aviation mods to go into service, so I've always wanted to see how successful it was since I spent time "down the ramp" from them)
