Two Max Air airline pilots flying a Boeing 747 from Saudi Arabia to Nigeria experienced a UFO encounter so bizarre they took video of it and uploaded it to the internet looking for some sort of explanation.
What makes this particular UFO encounter even more unique is that the glowing white UFOs the pilots saw during the flight did not appear on radar.
The video, posted to YouTube by Captain Ruud Van Pangemanan, who says he has 32 years of flying experience, was reportedly taken about 30 minutes after takeoff from Saudi Arabia.
The captain and his co-pilot can be heard in the video trying to discern what exactly the UFOs were that they were seeing.
They ruled out some sort of aircraft because they weren’t showing up on radar.
They also ruled out the UFOs being drones because they wouldn’t have such bright lights and they too could be picked up with radar.
The pilots also considered the possibility that the UFOs were satellites or perhaps even just stars, but they seemed doubtful about those possibilities due to the way that the objects moved in the sky.
“This is my experience of seeing something strange or UFO,” the captain says in the video.
“What we see is still a mystery. Before that, we thought it was a light plane, but it wasn’t on our radar.
“We thought maybe it was a star, but the stars didn’t move.
“The UFO light shone for a long time and moved.”
In June of 2023, NASA held its first public briefing on UFOs and the subject of mysterious orbs was a topic of conversation.
During the discussion, the group talked about the large number of unexplained metallic orbs that have been spotted at high altitudes around the world.
“This is a typical example of the thing that we see most of,” said Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, then the director of the U.S. Department of Defense’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). “We see these all over the world and we see these making very interesting apparent maneuvers.”
