Mystery C402
Can anyone tell me what a C402 was doing at 0245 over Sydney? Flying forward and back over twenty times, slow and low compared to other aircraft I have noticed during daylight hours doing similar at around 10,000ft. I guess it's some sort of surveying, although photographic purposes wouldn't seem appropriate at night. Unusual that Flightradar24 provided no aircraft details, although I could see it departed YSBK.

They are probably doing a LiDAR survey for making a very high definition "digital twin" of Sydney.

Off the topic a bit, I see on flight radar that VH-VEH has been doing quite a lot of what appears to be survey work about 40 miles west of Horn Island.
Anyone know what they are looking for or at? |
Probably re-surveying the shipping channels.
