Here is a supposed photo of the 'mystery' aircraft.. Perhaps a diversion? What is that pod behind the left wheel? Is that normal? A sensor for a DHS spy mission, maybe? Radiation sensor? FReeper flyers welcome to speculate, please.. Hmmmm..

Looks like a camera to me?

[Bell407Pilot]

If that is the “mystery” aircraft, then it’s a Cessna 182 Skylane with a Flir Ball on the side. Flir is just an infrared camera used for picking up heat signatures of bad guys. Most likely some sort of Law Enforcement/Government Mission. Portland, Oregon Police Department fly one just like it.

probably student pilots getting night qualification

Where’s the tail number of the aircraft?

[Rev DMV]

DEA, maybe.

They have a similar plane based at KOAK.

I think I know the people that developed this. These are the good guys...

Maybe it’s a Google map plane.
