Surveillance Drone Spotted Near Chicago - For NATO Summit?

This was filmed in Elgin, Illinois about 40 miles from Chicago. I assume it's for the NATO summit this week as a security measure.

I believe there is air natl guard at Ohare airport-

No. I was stationed there for 8 years. Daley kicked them out years ago.

The 928th USAFR (C-130s) was deactivated.
The 126th Air Refueling Wing ILANG went to Scott AFB
The 217th EIS ILANG went to Springfield
the 264th CBCS ILANG went to Peoria (my old unit)

There was also an AF Band unit and a Army Reserve (NG?) MP Unit stationed on that corner of O’Hare. I have no idea what happened to those.

Police helicopters don’t carry Hellfire missiles. ...YET.

There, I fixed it for you.

I don’t like the idea of these things at all. They are much different from police chopper, because police chopper makes a lot of noise and you know it’s there. If the wife and I are in the back yard late at night, I don’t want some night vision guy peeking at us from a silent drone high in the sky. I expect my privacy and will seek to defend it.

There is no changing perspective to the Predator flying by.

Take a look at his other videos. MisterBees also thinks that three aircraft following each on an obvious upper air route is something to shout about!

This is the original image used to fake the video. If he had chosen an image of an unarmed Predator then it might have been a bit more believable. His mistake was selecting one armed with Hellfire missiles

The FAA only allows drones that weigh 4.4 pounds to fly in civilian airspace, line of sight of the operator and not over 400 feet and also not within 5 miles of an airport.
