I would say that all islands are quite the same, equal optimum gorwing conditions, with the Big Island having the most flyovers.What island you moving too? usually the iron birds fly around big island, bu they fly on all the islands. Oahu is the next big one, but they only look for plants in your backyard, they dont go back into the mountains or anything.
Maui's got three that I know are looking for crops. Two are county helicopters and one was a DEA helicopter I looked up on the internet and found some pics of.
Check out the links. They vary from info about the helicopter to pictures of a DEA (probably 1 in the same) Helicopter being loaded into a C-17 in Hilo (note the date on the right hand side, last year so its probably still in the state) -

From one pic you can get the tail number and can look it up in a aviation database (google search) and get this info -

To a story -
One day I was sitting at home watching the Price is Right, and I hear a helicopter; I always get suspicsous when I hear a helicopter as most growers do I would assume. I go outside and there it is, the Yellow County Helicopter(loud older model helicopter) is flying around where I live and does its route, goes back and forth above the houses and woodland(lots of back yard grows), then out of nowhere that DEA helicopter(not saying its the exact one, but same Model, but pretty damn close)(new NOTAR, very very quite, couldn't even here it till it was right over me really) comes flying over my house and heads to a gulch across the pasture from my house. I guess the Ranch guys were cropping for years in that gulch till they got busted and now the DEA does checkups every year I guess to see that they aren't doing it again. They just went back and forth quite a few times then went off.
They just fly over from Hilo and do there routes on Maui then head back to Hilo is what im guessing. Either way if you see that helicopter in the pics get to running cause its the DEA and your gonna be way yyyy fucked if you get caught lol.
Well anyways, nice looking buds Maligs and great looking girls there Cheshireplant. I'll try to get some pics of my swollen hermie sometime this week.
