I'm sitting outside on the deck enjoying the evening, and I hear this high pitch whine approaching. I look up into the night sky, and it's a Piaggio!

 

Who would have thought that I would see one of those over here! Surprised

Very cool!  They really do have quite a distinctive sound, don't they?  I sure wish there was some way you could present some photos, but I understand the sensitivity of the area you are in.  Did you happen to notice where the Piaggio was registered?  Was it a US bird?

 

Stay safe my friend! Cool

No. It was totally dark outside. I was only able to make out the outline of it from the lights of the city.

 

I have gotten some pictures. Wink

 

When I get time, I will try and post them.
