Coming up on end of Fiscal Year on 30 Sep. Need to get in those flying hours for the year.
Rivet Joint looks like it's flying a test pattern.

That was an NF/A-18D. The 'N' prefix denotes a Special Test platform. The 'D' suffix means a two seat version. Looks like it took off from Pax River where the Naval Test Pilot School is located. Maybe just doing a night test mission of some new equipment.
Actually 'VV' denotes Navy. It's so the FAA knows exactly who they are.
