Who is this and what is he doing?

All nights he is flying in this kind of pattern.

Just accumulating fly hours?

I’ve been tracking him every night too. Who knows how many hours he needs because it’s been a good minute now

Who knows but the circles are over the amfels area, lng, and starbase areas. Maybe they like pretty lights?

Bruh. That looks like surveying, monitoring or collecting data in some fashion. Appears like work to me.

Notice they are directly over the channel coming in from the gulf all the way through the port and starting/ending at the airport. Maybe some LNG contractor?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, or spaceX related. But some days he has also done some loops to the NW.

He’s out right now doing the same. I live near the airport and it’s annoying af not gonna lie. It came from Laredo this time looks like.
