Screenshot from a short video of this chopper dragging something on the end of a longline. It happened recently, during last summer and the months of wildfires and helicopter activity from dawn to dusk. I’ve done some preliminary research and haven’t found any photos of that oblong thing. It looks like it could be a device for picking up signals close to ground, or maybe a 3D net of some sort that could capture fine particulate from all the chemical geoengineering going on in our sky.

Anybody have any information/speculation they can add?

The person who took the short video told the Gazette: “I was at the golf course and it was flying over hwy 12 to the airport. Someone told me it was for mining research.”
