A US Air Pressure pilot on a labeled mission reported a surprising UFO encounter whereas flying over California final September. Leaked air site visitors management audio reveals the second the pilot, recognized as “Troy 21,” described a mysterious, fast-moving object passing dangerously near his plane.
“That is going to sound bizarre,” Troy 21 advised Los Angeles air site visitors management at 2:30 pm. “However I simply had one thing go beneath my wing. Perhaps a football-sized object proper underneath my wing.”
The skilled pilot was flying a Beechcraft 350 C at 20,000 toes when he noticed the darkish grey, cylindrical object. When requested if it might have been a drone, he hesitated, noting that drones able to flying at such altitudes are unusual.
“I’ve obtained my sensor operator searching for it on the digicam proper now,” he added. “But it surely was like a darkish grey, cylindrical object, and it handed possibly 10 toes underneath our proper wing.”
Minutes later, radar picked up an unidentified object 60 miles away. If it was the identical one, it could have needed to journey at over Mach 2 (1,500 mph) to cowl that distance in such a short while.
Later within the leaked recording, one other air site visitors controller will be heard saying, “There was a UFO reported right here, however that’s all taken care of now.” The sighting was reported to the Nationwide UFO Reporting Heart.
The encounter mirrors an identical incident reported by former NASA astronaut Leroy Chiao, who noticed two cylindrical orbs zoom previous his aircraft in Texas. “They got here proper at me,” Chiao recalled, evaluating them to a different UFO sighting documented by the Pentagon in Iraq.
With one more unexplained aerial sighting, the thriller of high-speed UFOs in US airspace continues.
