I was working outside this morning and saw a weird aircraft ,ID help would be nice. It was a twin engine prop driven Cessna. This aircraft was pure white and had a 10 to 15 foot boom sticking out of it's tail. The boom appeared to be similiar to the type the C3 Orion's use. The aircraft was flying between 700 to 1000 feet at about 120 knots. He was flying a series of parralel courses about a 200 yards apart. The legs of the pattern were about 20 mimutes long. He flew within easy sight over my subdivision about 10 times. The tail numbers were very small and the aircraft was real quiet.

I live just outside a military airbase contol zone. Spy Plane?

The plane was distributing bird flu to the masses. Don't you know anything?!

I was just thinking, if it were a Mag boom he got a hell of a bump on his meter when he flew over my ammo stash.

He is looking for pot.

He was smoking pot and was trying to finish it before he tried to land at the air base....

He is looking for cows, the black helicopters will be out tonight.

If he is flying over cornfields, in a plane like that, he is probably looking for the heat signature for pot.

We used to practice SAR tracks, if you aren't far from the water, they 'could' have been doing it over land, and simulating H2O underneith.

Was it a turbine engined or a piston engined aircraft?

So THAT'S how Google Earth works...always wondered about that.

Update, it has been two weeks since the first post. This last sunday I was outside and the same aircraft flew over. This Sunday the headings were at 90 degrees from the first time. WTF? Flew over my house both times.

And his boom was talking to the towers with the blinking lights on top. You need to take out those towers! DO IT NOW!!!!

The new huricane steering aircraft - actually a squadron of them work together.

You need to keep a camera handy.

You saw nothing. Go back inside.

Pot gives of a heat signature?

I gotta go by some tinfoil to hide that.

Cessna as in Aztec (low wing) or some other manufacture (high wing). As far as I know Cessna doesn't make a high wing twin engine prop aircraft, but I'm definitely not an expert.

This is an interesting topic posted by jncc, I wish someone could post a legitimate (as in non-"Coast to Coast AM!") reply, I'd like to know what this plane was too. Obvoiusly some kind of mapping, but is it radar, magnetic, utility company?? Radar emitters are usually round or square and parabolic, aren't they?

Only Cessna that came in high wing twin was the old"push me,pull you" 307. MU-2? What was that other one,that came in both piston and turbo-prop(some fuelers used to get them confused,with bad results)

No, It is a low wing aircraft. I guess it is a Cessna, I see King and Queen Air all the time. This does not have the same lines.

Sounds like surveilance to me, Id start digging if I were you.

Are there any large convayore belts near by that could have launched it.

It might be a survey aircraft looking for natural gas and oil deposits. They search for changes in the earth's magnetic fields. I've seen some of these aircraft around Midland, TX.

My guess is it was an "Aeromagnetic" surveying aircraft.

Posted: 3/21/2006 5:48:46 AM EDT

[#36]

Did the plane and/or boom look like this ?

It maybe a plane set up to look for earthquake fault lines.

Look here

Hope this helps. If not, START DIGGING

I'm also betting on some sort of survey plane, maybe USGS.
Here's a picture of a USGS twin engine aircraft with a magnetometer boom on the rear, this was used in Alaska a few years ago:

Actually the aircraft in that photo is an older Beechcraft Twin Bonanza, it does kind of look like an older straight tail 310 though....

We have a winner. Hope the Pics come out okay. I suck at internet stuff. It's a Cessna 300 series with boom. We have many gas wells here. What a relief I can loosen my tin foil hat.
