"Flight Check" comes around periodically to check NAVAIDs. There is no set schedule on when they will check them.

The FAA flys a fleet of King Airs, Lears, and Challengers based regionally for this task. The King Air is the most common for this region.

How often does Flight Checker 74 come to Cleveland? Does this one plane fly all over the US doin ILS checks?
