U.S. military veteran observes boomerang UFO

[Persia]

An Arizona witness with a strong military background was unable to identify a "dark, boomerang object with about 15 to 20 white lights in front" and the "size of a standard size house" as it passed silently overhead under 1,500 feet at 8:37 p.m. on October 19, 2011, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

My view is these and the triangles are ours, the discs are not. You want some interesting reading look up Edgar Fouche and the TR3b and other type of craft. To think our military stopped working on these things after the 1960s SR71 is ridiculous. A large craft that can hover or move very fast with no sound and more then likely has almost unlimited endurance. Awesome indeed.

I just saw the film clearly you can hear the jet engines so this thing isnt silent so that would mean the boomerang doesnt have unlimited endurance,and must be fueled up at a certain point. Another huge flying wing,now what would be its mission? recon or bomber?

The actual report and video footage seems at odds; "15 to 20 white lights" and "passed silently overhead" are not matched by the footage - it sounds like a conventional jet aircraft.

Ok.. there is a green light on the right wing tip and a flashing red light on the left wing tip.. typical for aircraft today. There is jet engine noise that seems to match the varying distance of this plane. No sudden "impossible" turn observed.

Of course it could be some type of flying wing design we don't know about yet.

The observer obviously has problems with objective observation.

Nothing to see here folks - move along.

The video and article are at odds because they are not the same incident. The article is about a witness in Arizona, the video is titled "Boomerang UFO Virginia", ergo the discrepancies.

[DONTEATUS]

It boggles the mind !

[dharma warrior]

What a waste of time! Why even post a story like this. A single eyewitness account is worthless as far as evidence goes. It can't be verified or examined.

What's to discuss?

Boomerang UFO? Keep your eyes peeled everyone, it should come back!

(Grabs coat, avoids tumbleweed, etc...)

[SAmbag]

this is like one of the best UFO videos I've seen I think

but notice the navigation lights?

Well, lets have a think about this.

Disregarding that the fellow who spotted this anomaly does not seem to be right about the number of lights seen.

If this was ET, what possible use could ET have for conventional lights at "under 15,000 feet"? There is nothing up tere to look at, just air, which is more remarkable at how underwhelming that sight would be.

But one of ours? We put these on as a warning before landing, and to assist in landing. We do have a use. Somehow, I doubt ET was looking for an international airport.

So considering there seems to be basic observational errors, and what we see looks like aircraft lights, we also have to consider that this bloke thought this was birds at first, giving one reason to wonder about how reliable his "expertise" actually is, so one must second guess his final conclusion.

This UFO stuff can make you crazy. Here a "military expert" submits a video of a flying triangle that resembles a B2 with it's landing lights on. He tells us that it was "absolutely silent", even as the video clearly captured the sounds of a jet engines. The B2 goes on to make a radical 90 degree turn but he fails to video that maneuver for us. While the thing looks and sounds sort of like a B2, it is displaying some goofy running lights that make no sense.

As usual, one walks away more confused from the report then ever.

I'm suprised so many missed that! The original report on examiner.com states there is no video or pictures from the witness.

I just searched for Aurora project My link, for whatever reason this seems like the best video with only 5k views. Vid was taken in 2002 and uploaded a year ago. What are all of your thoughts on the vid's explanation? Black project? Or is it something like, RC plane + amplifiers playing loud plane sounds + a pretty good acting job. Or some common plane misidentified somehow? The first seems pretty likely likely to me. As for the story, it seems like the witness makes a lot of heavy assertions, so I don't really know what to take from it. And I gotta admit I don't know anything about "The Canadian". I'm just gonna throw that article into the (huge) pile. Plus they misspell quiet.

Me too, I did not pick up on the town name, and just looked at a US map. Not exactly next door to each other are they. I wonder if a story accompanies the video, and what the point of the video was. Surely they did not find need to illustrate a triangle?

[angi chiesa]

Fellow members,surely most of you accept that often Unidentified objects are seen in the sky,mostly at night or blurred images.However most are fakes though why people should to kid the general public is beyond me.

HOWEVER THE CONCEPT THAT WE HAVE ALIENS IN OUR SKIES BEGGARS BELIEF.

[Amerix]

The aircraft in that video is clearly terrestrial. It has headlights, indicative of all man made aircraft... and it has the red/green FAA lights on the wings..

Fluidizer... Please see the above quote of Toothsause!

I like the Veteran's report. It is clear. He is not trying to sell it. And he has credentials. Does lightening strike the same place twice. I would enjoy sitting around waiting for an opportunity to see it.

That is an airplane, not a UFO. That was the first thing that came to my mind.

[mcrom901]

here's a boomerang...
