Hi there, I'm currently in Harlingen staying near the airport, and today was the second day in a row that I saw a white MD80 departing runway 17R and then turn north heading I think to CRP VOR. I've search in flightaware but there is no track for any MD80 departing or arriving, anyone knows who operates this totally white MD80?
Greetings.

I believe Department of Justice is running MD80s on ConAir flights now. That would be my guess anyway.

Is that for prisoners or possibly running flights to return illegal immigrants and just doing another pickup in CRP on the way down south?

Both operations can be, not sure if the flight is heading to CRP, IAH, DFW or even out of Texas, I remember also there was once a 737-300 IIRC returning illegal immigrants back to El Salvador I think.
Thanks for your answer.
