I am not sure if I have ever seen one that isn't faked.

If you watch enough videos on YouTube you will find some that aren’t faked but are unidentified.

Yep, its convenient to hide the real ones amongst an ocean of fakes, and I would go as far to say, unless you are an expert in video or images, its almost impossible to tell the difference today.

Something as simple/unsensational as a light in the night sky making 90 degree turns, etc. There are some of these on YouTube. These I have seen in person and cannot come up with explanation. Some kind of gov tech? Then again there is the recent air force/ pentagon vid. I wonder then too if they (gov) were testing pilots/staff. Unlikely there

Ive seen numerous online videos of lights seeming to defy the laws of physics, hard angled turns, complete stops/ starts, etc but why would Govt be testing experimental aircraft like this in civilian areas? This is why security is so high at places like Area 51, they dont want the chance of anyone seeing what they are working on in aircraft design, they go to great lengths to ensure these testing bases are extremely remote and cut off from the public.

Another main point that these are probably not secret Govt aircraft, is that none of this technology has trickled down to known aircraft yet, even the most advanced fighter plane today, does not hold a candle to what people are reporting to see in UFOs, craft that operate totally silent, can hover in place, cloak themselves, etc. If they have been secretly testing some of this technology, we would have seen at least some of it, trickle down to declassified, common use aircraft.

Supposedly the flight test JetPlane X-15 holds the known earth made aircraft speed record of almost 2000 MPH.

The various agencies FAA, Air Force, others have radar data that show unknown craft going many times this speed and pulling G forces that would crush a human pilot.

One very famous incident that is well documented publicly is the incident with the JAL Cargo 747 in like 1983(year?) where this plane was flying from Paris to Japan with a refueling stop planned in Alaska. The pilot was freaking out because he said he saw a huge mothership and keep trying to get out of its way. He said it was many times larger than a 747 and large ball, kept appearing in front his plane and he couldn't get away from it. This sighting went on for awhile. The pilot was interviewed, there is matching radar data that the regional head of the FAA can verify and does in an interview.

The X-43A has flown at Mach 9.6 (7,000 MPH). The reentry speed of the space shuttle was Mach 25 (17,500 MPH).

Almost.

Actually, I had a video for about 30 minutes ... From June 16, 2014, here in Colorado Springs on the day of my twin girls 7th grade “continuation”.

I initially thought it was a weather balloon until the F-16’s came out to play. They didn’t stand a chance. Many people saw it that morning, there are at least 2 other reports on the unforc.org website. There were about 10 people on the sidewalk with my DIL & I watching.

It was clear/silver, maybe cigar or spherical & almost looked multi-faceted. It was high & would hover & then appeared to tumble. When the F-16’s started closing in it shot straight up vertically, hovered & tumbled again. The jets were literally criss-crossing themselves trying to reach it.

You’d see it to the right & tumble then left & tumble. It appeared as if it was actually having fun with our military. There is absolutely no way I would now say weather balloon. I’ve lived here my whole life & nothing ... absolutely nothing, causes an air current to come from the east & clear Pikes Peak.

I live in a heavily militarized town, we are surrounded by Peterson AFB to the SE, Fort Carson to the S, NORAD to the SW, the USAFA to the NW & High-security Shriver AFB to the NE. There is not one square inch of air-space that is not spoken for here, so the military presence itself wasn’t unusual.

If anything, my video would have shown quite the air show but ... Afterwards I stopped for gas & my then 11 yr old Autistic son was in the car as I pumped gas. He has a thing about ringing phones. The sound drives him up the wall. Apparently it was ringing as I was pumping & when I sat back down, the phone had been pulverized.

I still have the phone & the video is in there somewhere!

There are numerous reports just like this all the time on MUFON and NUFORC. Seeing military jets and helicopters either chasing or escorting strange craft.

Id love to hear from the pilots that are sent up on these runs, who determines they need to be scrambled? What information are they given before they go up about what they going up for? It takes a little bit of time to get jets into the air, so apparently someone is aware of these UFOs popping up.
