Leonardo AW139 helicopter flying all over northern #NewJersey this evening, including lots of loops over various towns (including like 3 loops around downtown Madison).
No ID or flight plan in FlightAware, the very brief glimpse I got looked vaguely police or military (gray and blue paint).
Wonder wtf. VIP sightseeing? (Of... Madison, Hillsdale, Cliffside Park, and Springfield? Really?) Police heli training flight? NNSA nuclear detection mission?
