With two planes on the auction block, the Alaska Wildlife Troopers' Aircraft Section fleet continues to shrink along with the state budget.
The Department of Public Safety has listed the two planes -- a 1980 Beechcraft King Air 200 previously used for high-seas fisheries enforcement and transporting dignitaries, and a 2010 Top Cub -- at the government auction site govdeals.com.
Murph, are you paying attention?

Rev. Paul,
Not a bad price!!
Sandy, at least it would be reasonable to expect it has been well-maintained.
It says Alaska State Troopers on it.
Think if I bought it I could pull people over?
Sure, Ed - but be warned that parking in mid-air can be tricky. And it's even trickier when you try walking up to the speeder's cockpit. :)
This would be great for Murphy. He could load-up the puppies and visit everybody.
I know, right? I figured he'd be on that pretty quickly.
