4 Chinook H-47 large transport helicopters airborne over south Germany, heading west.

Like the high tanker activity today, this is also unusual, but even more so.

We see about 0.25 Chinook flights per hour normally. This is 4. But, since these are quite uncommon one should be careful about conclusions.
