Flying circles around YBBN

Anyone know what this guy might have been doing? Came in from Amberley, and has being doing pretty perfect circles around YBBN for quite some time now.

Trying to figure out how to restart his left engine?

Yes, I know...not very helpful.

Does Flight Calibration use a King Air 350.

Nah verifying the ground based signals

Quite routine fwiw. I imagine its a certification requirement.

I think they'd run out of perfect circles at YBBN so he's making a few more for them.
