According tu Santa Monica Airport Manager Bob Trimborn, today (Wednesday), between noon and 1 p.m. three Marine Corps CH-46 Sea Knight helicopters will overfly the City of Santa Monica on a southeasterly line from near the Pier  to the Airport where they will land briefly,

They will then take off and fly west at  an altitude of approximately 900 – 1000 feet.

The helicopters will be filmed in flight for an upcoming movie, “Battle: Los Angeles,” a Sony Pictures production, in which a Marine platoon faces off against an alien invasion. ,

Though it’s a movie shoot, it is under the Department of Defense jurisdiction that precludes the City from restricting the activity.
