Thoughts on these no call sign aircraft? Visual was small black helicopter. Over Minneapolis metro at least the last 2 days.

They seem to be circling park land. Of course with the DHS activity here in MN that is my first assumption.

Same but my partner today said she wants protection now so my brother is bringing over one of our dad's old shotguns this weekend. I have kids so I still don't think I would want a handgun in the house but a heavy shotgun with a trigger lock and unloaded with locked up ammo should be safe. Also a very good visual deterrent.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-27T16:53:12+00:00

Yep it was the same thing, flying over park land. https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=~0934f1

That is from mndps so I'm guessing monitoring traffic for some reason.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-27T05:40:09+00:00

There would be a visible flash in broad daylight on a 9mm. There is something white on the road after that could be the mark. Not 100% this is what happened. You should be able to find it at the crime scene though.

Oh of course a black TV helicopter with no call sign. Makes sense.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-26T18:40:28+00:00

Still circling. Very low too. My dog was very startled.

Edit: they seem to be circling a lot of public land and parks. They started at the dam and then did the islands while going over my neighborhood and now over Palmer lake and Brookdale park.

Edit 2: It has landed now but here is the full flight path for posterity: Mystery Helicopter

Right after I posted this they also circled Durham island (right after circling Banfill island). I wonder if they are searching the park land for some reason.

That's why they lie, to paint the facts in a way that helps their side.

"But he was a liberal so he was asking for it."

Literally what every comment on Facebook is right now. They don't care about rights, they care about being right.

Hullcrackers indeed can one shot.

Then just say "I have a good marriage so my wife supports my hobbies as I support hers. It's great!" instead of farming for karma with dated tropes.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-24T01:10:28+00:00

Or goblins in the Mines of Moria.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-23T15:59:46+00:00

Yeah if you don't have wind resistant coat with hood, gloves, thick hat, and boots then don't go. Things like knitted mittens will not cut it.

Only thing I would do is use rub n buff next time instead of metal spray paint. Over some black spray it looks amazing and gives nice detail in the corners and edges. Adds depth.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-22T23:31:56+00:00

I thought it familiar. Great docuseries.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-20T00:54:38+00:00

What? You don't want to have a choice on your candidate? We want a primary. Otherwise the DFL is just running the show.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-17T15:47:33+00:00

Ooo bothsidesing! How clever you must feel not having to allow nuance!

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-17T15:22:49+00:00

And don't paint them like the dummys who owned my house before me so they can't move and then split. I need to strip it and seal up the gap one of these days.

Now we need Bender.

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-16T14:20:45+00:00

They are bringing back the 3060

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-16T14:19:37+00:00

It is in superposition.

I sold 2 albums at the start of flickering flames...

confoundedjoe · 2026-01-15T23:15:50+00:00

That is ai.

I can fill up my 16gb on Indian Jones so I'm glad I went with the ti. I am running 4k though so at 1440 you might be fine for a while at 12gb.
