They better watch out -- someone might think they're on a CD mission and shoot at them.  >:D

I always look up at every engine noise I hear from above.  Every now and then I see a CAP plane at work because we're next to the airport.

I used to crane my neck every time I saw a white van to see if it had markings, but when I began driving for a living and spent much of the day on the road I started getting whiplash...

I'm actually more concerned about the black vans.  ;)

Do you think they take out the last row of seats in the black vans, or just to be dangerous leave them in? more room for "naughty" cap members ;) :D

Nah, you need the open space in back for the hogtied and blindfolded member who dared to question the NB.  ;)

Make those CAP black vans ...useful  'cuz as they are they are pretty useless

Deliver parts to the hangars where CAP aircraft have been sitting for more than a month waiting for props and engines

Wait they are just going to paint over the CAP Markings?  They are decals...  Shouldnt they come off?

I find it easier to electronically monitor all CAP aircraft flying in my area.   Just a simple radio scanner with all the local/regional Air Traffic Control frequencies being scanned will yield those "CAPFLIGHT" (and maybe soon to be "CAP") callsigns.

Of special interest are those callsigns monitored that are out of wing and/or out of region.

When we got our C-206 back from the paint shop the markings were painted on. No decals.
