Sidney, British Columbia Pilot Observes Objects From Ground Level

Posted: February 8, 2008

Date: July 1, 2007 Time: 10:53 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Overhead Sidney, B.C. Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 2 Shape of objects: Circular.

Full Description of event/sighting: Sitting in a chair enjoying the parade down Beacon avenue in Sidney, I happened to look directly up and noticed two very bright objects that appeared to be stationary in the sky. Being a pilot I was somewhat intrigued by this, as these objects were so bright in an already bright sky and that they did not look to be airplanes. There was some cirrus cloud coming in from the west and according to the forecast at Victoria Airport for 11:00 Hrs the cirrus was at 12,000 feet ASL. I then saw a commercial jet approaching above the thin cirrus, this jet went beneath the east most object which gave me some perspective. I would guess that the cirrus cloud was more like 20,000 feet plus and these objects were at 30 plus but it is so difficult to be accurate. Now some will think weather baloon, perhaps, but how big would it have to be, and most of all, if it were so big as to be seen from such a distance, then why two together. After about 6 minutes they were obscured from view as more cirrus cloud blew in and these objects did move to the south east. I had the fellow next to me look up at this, but not being a pilot or for that matter interested he just said slow flying aircraft. Not !

Thank you to the witness for their report.
