UFO sighting...
 

Hi ya'all... first time posting in this section, longtime forum member...

I figured we've seen it all and heard it all when it comes to UFO's, right?

Well, here's another "sighting" by 3 independent pilots...

(used google to translate this from a Brazilian newspaper (original link in portuguese: http://oglobo.globo.com/rio/ancelmo/...oje-522767.asp (first two topics) )

Unidentified object

Two pilots of Gol and Avianca made ​​an unusual story in Fortaleza Airport. Reported seeing in the sky, on Mar. 24, around 9am, near the town, an unidentified object. And they had to deviate from it.
On the same day, the pilot of a private jet, which made a similar route, reported the same vision and gave details.

According to him ...

The UFO was white, round and was zigzagging at high speed in the sky. It is. Can be.

A question which, I'm afraid, reflects a rude and unfortunate prejudice. Aviation annals are full of unexplained phenomena seen by sober and qualified personnel, civilian and military, from the "foo fighters" over WWII Europe to Teheran 1976 to JAL1628 over Alaska in 1987. This stuff happens. Your derision discourages reasonable people from stepping forward to contribute their own observations. It is a big and mysterious world.

BearX220,
Thanks for your reply.

Obviously, I was kidding, specially, since as you pointed out that: these people we trust our lifes with are or should be sober and qualified.

In order not to offend anyone and allow others to contribute, I have gone ahead, edited my original post and removed my comment.

Best,

It flew over the Fortaleza airport, saw that it wasn't finished for the olympics and decided to not land there.

Why does a UFO only fly in front of the plane so only the pilots see it and not the 200 or so passengers on the plane?
