Question on Bad Info: Airline

[billings.spotter]

I submitted a photo of a helicopter recently acquired by the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks. They are the registered owner. For the airline, there isn't a MDFWP option, so the next closest option is United States - Government as the MDFWP is a government entity that reports directly to the Governor.

There were a few other reasons, but one reason the photo got rejected is due to incorrect airline. I know the airline, so "unknown" wouldn't have been applicable, and in the description I did say that it is owned by the MDFWP. As far as I can tell, this department is not a direct subsidiary of the US Forest Service or anything like that, so that airline would not have been correct either. I was just curious now as to what airline I should have put.

I don't think I should have left it as the previous owner that auto-fill brought up, the Hillsborough County Sheriff? In hindsight I guess I should have mentioned this in the comments to screener, but at the time I felt that it would only be redundant as I already provided all the info. Lessons for next time!

I included the photo with the clear registration, N680DG, for quick fact-checking.

Long story short, if you don't see the airline for the aircraft your have to add it.
