72222 - Laredo TX (Bismarck ND)
72235 - NM (Salem OR)

Noted at Yuma in the open hangar, at awkward angle to read, in the morning of 12 October were:
72243, 72314, 72294, 72307, 72303, 72313 +1
No operators noted besides that one had the Arizona tail band.

According to FR24.com a four-ship had arrived the afternoon before in two pairs: 13-72294 15:46, 14-72314 15:47, 13-72307 15:55, and 14-72313 16:03. Luckily, these match with the ones we read :-)

Lastly we saw one in the dome hangar of Campo border patrol station, old Hwy80 Pine Valley, CA, between El Centro and San Diego, 32°42'59.66"N, 116°26'59.00"W, looks like a second was detached there but out flying. So alas, no confirmation/update for this location on your excellent list.

72294 was noted at Pine Valley CA this morning.
The cabin of a Huey has appeared next to the helipad. Sadly a flooded track prevented closer inspection.

I believe 72261 was replaced by 72256 sometime around January 17th.
