Chicago O'Hare Apparatus

Can someone from the site that is familiar with Chicago FD answer a quick question for me...

Do the "Structural" meaning non-ARFF units that are station at the Airport fire houses respond off of airport property for runs or are they strictly for airport property structural firefighting?

I've seen them attached to boxes off the airport property.

Do you know if they are on the box or special called?

I have seen photos of CFD YELLOW Airport units operating at fires outside the Airport grounds, including Squad units. Captain Bob Rainey FDNY Engine 26 retired
