Chopper overhead this Wednesday afternoon. Looks like it has an image stabilizing camera up front. Perhaps a Bellosguardo movie in the making?

What’s all the heli traffic going on during the 3-3:15 time frame. All over Riviera, San Roque, Mission Cyn – and now appear to have left. Is there a site to look these incursions up?
It’s English Air Services LLC, just a survey over 4 different grids transversely covering the entire city, no circling and no incursion.
Is a British based outfit surveing S.B? What?? Exacly where? Today? Why, possibly? How, and Howdy there. have seen that, likekely, same chopper hovering on the E.S.
No. The name has nothing to do with their location. English Air Service is based out of Santa Maria. They are retained by SCE to do powerline surveying.

Uh oh, the British are coming
per the “Palm” power line inspections…; https://twitter.com/JohnPalminteri/status/1671643889281949696?cxt=HHwWgIDTudbQ77IuAAAA
wanting to add that the flight path showing there is more complete/extensive? (and in “Edhat orange”!!!)
Got pretty good picture of it , trying to better my skills for motion photography (cannot post), and the front “protrusion” looks like a LiDAR instrument (I will let readers research that). Seemed like pilot purposefully banked for 2 seconds for me to get pic (wishful thinking).
Got one flying in circles near West Goleta now. Flightradar24 shows a similar pattern. Maybe more surveying?
Seems so… same Owner ENGLISH AIR SERVICE LLC :N28NA
currently coming down Farren Road, definitely doing power line inspections.
