For the past two weeks residents of Quincy, Massachusetts have had to put up with a mysterious low-flying aircraft above the city. The aircraft has some residents concerned, but when asked for more information the FAA said only that the aircraft is not a drone. What the aircraft is being used for and by what agency (if any) remains a mystery to the people of Quincy.
