Don't know if he wanted it for promotional purposes, or so he could watch himself being heroic or something whenever he felt old and unappreciated and needed to revise the narrative in his head.

That clip was just too Hollywood not to be for some sort of promotion he was going to profit off.

If this was put down as a training flight - like the PR stadium fly-overs for sporting events - he needs to go through the proper channels and pay for the fuel if he had them fly a formation for his personal use.
According to a helicopter pilot I asked at work there are times a local organization asks for a fly-by or landing shot for commercial purposes.
