N4GVA is the backseat operator doing aerial photography. When he is
not in the coverage patterns you observed, he does APRS messaging
and there's enough bi-directional (aka properly configured) IGates
in his normal range that you can have an APRS QSO via the APRS-IS as
well.<br>
<br>
One day, over a year ago, I saw him coming up just west of my QTH
and sent him a message. He later sent me the photos he took of a)
my house, b) the street east from my house, c) the parking lot
showing my car at the convenience store where d) I was standing on
the parking lot trying to spot his plane.<br>

Interesting plots, definitely some kind of remote sensing
with very regular grid spacing. Most of the time was over
Everglades, but the last north-south passes were over the
cooling ponds for the Turkey Point nuke plant. My first
thought was an American Crocodile survey. The ponds are a
favorite hangout for the reptiles because of the warmth,
but this time of year you would expect them to be more in
the Key Largo area around their refuge, the ponds are more
of a winter hangout.<br clear="none">

Whatever he was doing it was good flying, perfect true EW
and NS passes with even spacing, not easy on a 20 knot
wind day.<br clear="none">
