What it usually means
Private / civil: Private and civil helicopters are usually in transit, on a charter, or on a survey flight.
Military: Military aircraft are usually transiting between bases or on a training route rather than responding to anything local.
News helicopter: News helicopters usually mean live coverage of a developing story — a pursuit, a fire, or a scene the station is broadcasting.
Police (LAPD / municipal): Police helicopters typically orbit for a search, a pursuit, or to support officers on the ground. A tight circle overhead usually means the activity is directly below.

Helicopters over Newbury Park: common questions
Why is there a helicopter over Newbury Park?
Most helicopter activity over Newbury Park is one of four things: police aircraft supporting officers on the ground, news helicopters covering a developing story, fire or air-medical aircraft responding to an emergency, or private and military aircraft simply transiting the area.

How can I tell if it's police or a news helicopter?
Police aircraft usually fly tight, repeated orbits over one spot and often stay for a long time. News helicopters tend to hold a wider circle at a higher altitude and arrive after an incident is already underway. This page labels each aircraft by its operator, so you don't have to guess.
