The speed of sound is not that fast. By the time the sound has travelled from the airplane to your ear, the plan has flown far away from the location is was when it was making the sound.
Did you not take honors science classes in high school???

The commercial jetliners are easy to spot (Southwest, Alaska Airlines and even UPS cargo aircraft).

Ironically, he now works in the airline industry.
So, while we were out prepping the pool I heard a plane flying overhead so I looked up to look at it. Although I could hear it flying directly above us I couldn't see it anywhere.
It sounded like one of those older, small planes. I kept looking for it as I could hear it flying over but still couldn't see it. I asked my husband to look up and see if he could see it and he couldn't find it either even though we both were hearing it clear as a bell.
We both stood out there watching above and around the sky as we heard the plane flying over but neither one of us ever saw it. My husband called it the "invisible plane".
I just thought it was weird. The plane sounded like it was low flying so I know we should have been able to see it easily. Even if it were high above we should have been able to see it on such a clear day.
It was just weird. Any thoughts?

Maybe an experiment the government is playing with.

Who needs science; paranormal speculation and conspiracies are way more fun!!

They've figured-out how to make a plane invisible, but they still rely on a noisy internal combustion engine  .
