Today a Bell 206(B?) Jetranger flew over my house, i was too late to get a good picture of it, but the strange thing was that it had a boom extended on both sides, under a slightly upward angle with somthing attached on the tip. The Ranger was sprayed in a Red colour with a white stripe near the back. Does anybody know what this could possibly be? it didnt look like a sprayer, nor did a spraying plane ever flew in my area.

EDIT: vague photo of the aircraft:

It could be the PH-HWH, but that one does not have a boom attached.
