Is that what it was? I watched it go by, pretty big. Figured it was military as it didn't show up on the flight websites.

Koninklijke Marechaussee
3 hrs ·
This morning, 20 police officers left for Sint Maarten with the KDC-10 At the request of the local authorities, they will support in maintaining public order. Strict measures are applied on the island to prevent further spread of the coronavirus. At Eindhoven airbase, the departure was sober without family. The colleagues remain in the area for about 3 months. #sintmaarten #caribsupport

Thanks Elaine and yes you are correct, however by it leaving so early means that they have some for Curacao and the other Islands too.
