NUFORC UFO Sighting 198210
I was seated in 17F of Hawaiian Air flight #HA1067. The weather conditions was sunny with no clouds. Shortly after takeoff at approximately 1000' to 1500' approaching the Kona coast, our aircraft was starting to gradually bank right out toward the coast. I was looking out of my starboard window at the algae farms below when I spotted a chrome oval-shaped object below us. It was oval and on its "side" as it was not vertical. It was cruising inland, in a straight line, about the same speed as our aircraft at about half the distance between our aircraft and the coast below. I could see it quite well as there weren't any atmospheric clouds or particles between us. It was almost directly below our aircraft. I saw no apparent form of propulsion nor windows nor any wings/fins on it. I believe i only saw this object about 5-6 seconds, not long enough to pull out my mobile phone to take photo of it.
Danish drone airport shutdown investigation revealed nothing confirmed
After 9 months of investigation Danish authorities have revealed little conclusions as to what caused an airport shutdown in September 2025.
Unidentified Drones swarming a Copenhagen airport were unable to be identified in a recent report by the Danish Police, leaving the general public with more questions than answers.
Pilot filming a V-22 captured a UAP hovering around the helicopter
I was videoing an Osprey aircract travelling West, and upon review of the video, I noticed a dark spot that appeared underneath the aircraft. Then it jumped left, paused, then jumped, pause/jump from North to South -- bout six times before it went out of frame (crossing approximately 1/2 of the horizon in 7 seconds of video). It was pill/capsule shaped upon blowing up the video, and in one image, it appeared rectangular, with something hanging down from it.
The Unexplained Castelo De Bode Dam UFO Case
On June 17, 1977, a Portuguese Air Force pilot in a DHC-1 Chipmunk trainer aircraft encountered a large, unknown object at 5,000 feet over the Castelo de Bode Dam. The UFO circled the plane for roughly 15 minutes before plunging into an uncontrolled dive, leaving the pilot physically unharmed but with a wildly spinning magnetic compass.
Now is the time to write your Congressperson to ask for an Aviation Professional to be on the 9 member review board. Only 6 designated members are required from various fields but zero required from Aviation. Flight Safety needs to be addressed in terms of all aspects of this phenomenon.
The current legislation is lacking any representation from the Aviation community. There are 3 openings for a Aviation community member to be represented and we sorely need this for Safety reasons. Please as for a revised board to request at least one member of the Aviation community. Thank you all!
Retired naval pilot and Commander, David Fravor: “There are people inside the Government that do not want this out” “Just be honest and say, ‘We’ve known for the last 80+ years that we’re not alone, we recovered stuff at Roswell.’ I think the world deserves that.”
David Fravor is a retired naval pilot and Commander of VFA-41, also known as "The Black Aces". He is one of the primary witnesses to the 2004 USS Nimitz UFO incident and testified under oath at the 2023 U.S. Congressional hearing on UFOs alongside former United States Air Force officer and intelligence official David Grusch and retired naval pilot Ryan Graves.
This is David Fravor's response to the current UFO disclosure movement.

Pack a Ham sandwich and Fritos. Should be interesting. All day event & lot of speakers if you're interested.
Another Pilot is witness to a similar UFO Jellyfish incident
Object was approximately 5 feet tall and in a vertical position with tentacles extending in all directions like a tree branch.
We observed the object at 3000 ft on a visual approach to 13L at KDAL airport. The military observed a very similar object in 2018 over a base in Iraq, and now that I’ve seen that footage, I can say, as well as my other pilot, that we saw the same or very similar figure. It’s almost impossible to describe the shape, so my best reference now is what I found in a video published by “Ancient Aliens” titled Sensational video of jellyfish UFO. The object had absolutely no aerodynamic features and was holding perfect altitude. We were unable to determine if it was in horizontal motion, but it was definitely stable at 3000 FT as we passed it.
JOR 3.1: Python/PyMC dashboard for UAP collision risk index
If you're interested, I built a Python module for the JOR V3.1 framework that uses a vectorized PyMC sampling pipeline to calculate a Collision Risk Index (CRI). It basically treats physical presence certainty as a baseline and uses kinetic flight anomalies (like instantaneous acceleration) as a multiplier:
CRI = SOP_Mean * (1 + Flight_Mod)
The outputs map into standard hazard tiers (Low, Elevated, Critical) and feed into a Streamlit dashboard I set up, which plots the track relative to safety limits and MCMC uncertainty ranges.
The main goal is just to give aviation stakeholders a standardized metric for threat mitigation.

United Airlines pilots report unidentified object crossing final approach into SFO at “2x the speed of an airplane” — visual + TCAS contact
Time: April 29, 2026 during final approach (evening/night approach; exact local time unknown)
Location: San Francisco International Airport (SFO), San Francisco, California, USA
Found this ATC reconstruction and thought it was worth discussion here. Report concerns United flight UA1389 (B757-300) from Denver to San Francisco. According to the reconstruction, while around 7 miles from SFO on final approach, the crew reported seeing something crossing right-to-left and referenced seeing something on TCAS. After landing, they estimated it appeared to be moving roughly "twice the speed of an airplane."
Not claiming aliens or NHI here. What caught my attention is the combination of an airline crew observation, low altitude (~700 ft reported), and an apparent traffic/TCAS component rather than a simple light in the sky.
"We hit a drone,” the pilot told the dispatcher. “At around — probably at around 3000 feet"

Extremely bright silent craft moving north to south
I was watering plants outside around 9:30-10pm and a neighbor started yelling “does anyone see that?”. I went to the street and saw him pointing out an extremely bright white light in the sky running almost north to south over houses along Legion or the canal it borders. We were looking across the treeless Shore Road Schoolyard. The light was extremely bright and white somewhat directional down and to the front of the crafts flight path. It was probably at an altitude of 100-200ft low on the horizon maybe twice as high as the tallest trees in the line of sight but the trees were closer then the object.
I would have said it could have been a helicopter with searchlights but it was entirely silent, and brighter then I’ve seen used, a few days before there was a medical evacuation via helicopter from the schoolyard and it was so loud everyone within sight range was outside their house as it was a Saturday or Sunday morning or afternoon and you couldn’t even hear each other at a full yell. This was maybe 1000 ft away or whatever the range between shore road and legion road just south of Marine place would be. I’d almost say it was a small fixed wing aircraft with forward facing super bright LED light bars something maybe half the size of a Cessna but still it was silent. It was moving too low and slowly and linearly to be a larger fixed wing craft as it would have fallen from the sky due to lack of lift. Hence why I’d have assumed a rotor craft yet there was no sound as with the helicopter we had land there in the schoolyard the weekend prior. I grew up working in aerospace manufacturing and within sight of a general aviation airport ( Republic Airport) a piston engine of any sort would have been plainly audible as would a propellor or rotor in the air. This is why neither I nor the neighbor thought it was a quadcopter drone either as I’ve heard and seen large at least 6 ft wide quadcopters in the area and I could easily hear it before it was visible. A family member of mine reported seeing a similar thing traveling over Newbridge park to the west of where I was and spontaneously mentioned the oddness of it being seemingly silent. Even electrical rotorcraft make noise as most of the noise is due to the rotors not the engines as people assume. The best explanation I could reach would maybe be a remote controlled fixed wing aircraft smaller then a Cessna with electrical propellers which maybe would have been quiet enough that we could not have heard the prop wash. But then why was it blasting such bright lights that we could not really see its shape at low altitude over suburban NY at 9-10pm on a Friday or Saturday night? Due to the brightness of the lights I couldn’t see an airframe or anything. The craft was initially moving south to north back and forth according to my neighbor. I saw only the end of the last pass moving north then lost sight of it momentarily then it returned making a final pass running from the north to the south. From our position the craft was moving from north of the schoolyard to south of the schoolyard but along Legion so it was farther away then the rear edge of the schoolyard.
But it was a slow moving, fairly linear flight path, too slow for all but the slowest fixed wing aircraft able to carry a person. But far too low, close and quiet to be a fixed wing human piloted aircraft. It illuminated its flight path like day or brighter, was silent at our range, was not being flown from the schoolyard as we could see it was empty.
As I said the most plausible explanation I could come up with was a fixed wing drone or RC aircraft powered by electric motors with powerful maybe 100’s of watts worth of LED floodlights aiming front and down. This would explain the linear flight path north to south if it was flying in an ellipse, the lack of detectable sound and is all I could come up with.
I have also worked as a small engine mechanic so I can assure you there was nothing like a small gasoline engine powering it. Even a few cc up to a 30cc combustion engine would have been easily audible. It did not appear to be anything paranormal or alien but it was unusual and raised questions in both my and my neighbors mind as to what could explain all the features. It either went dark or passed down below our line of sight behind trees and houses or turned to the south east and we lost sight of it at the end of its north to south pass.
