Fox4KC.com reports a cell phone video of an unidentified flying object has local residents abuzz. For three nights between Oct. 3 and Oct. 5, dozens of reports of UFOs came into authorities and Missouri MUFON . The video posted by the news outlet shows a triangular craft flying at a low altitude. At first it appears to be a normal aircraft because it moves forward. Then you take a look at the running lights underneath the plane.
Some of the reports of UFOs have been explained as stunt aircraft. Others are just low-flying regular planes. If anything, this aircraft is certainly not a normal commercial airplane. Aircraft usually have small running lights on the wings and a small cluster on the underside. They also have forward-looking beams of light much like headlights on a car.
Bright white lights all over the under of a plane are unusual. In terms of being "unidentified," then this particular video does show a flying object that doesn't look normal. Whether or not this craft is of extraterrestrial origin is a matter of debate.
Another video has surfaced on YouTube . "LamborghiniBoy007" posted a 48 second video that appears to be several lights moving vertically. They could be helicopters at first glance. However, two lights get very close in proximity to each other. Helicopters can't get too close to each other or they would crash.
The formation the craft in the YouTube video is strange. They seem to form a boomerang or triangle shape. They also hold very still in the sky. You can see the lights don't move much horizontally as they continue their triangular formation. Two other lights are afore and aft of the main cluster.
Some vertical takeoff and landing craft are utilized by the U.S. military like the U.S. Marine Corps' Harrier jets . They use jet engines to hover vertically before moving horizontally. However, they also have running lights like normal military aircraft. The discharge from their jets would also be reddish-blue and not white as they hover in formation.
Missouri isn't known for a lot UFO activity, but the past week has been interesting in terms of several witnesses seeing strange lights in the sky. Surprisingly, Missouri is a hotbed of UFO activity going back to 1941.
KLTV out of Texas reported in 2008 that Charlotte Mann recounted the story of her grandfather, Rev. William Huffman. Huffman was called to a crash site near Sikeston, Mo., in April of 1941. Originally he thought it was a plane crash to give last rites to the victims. Instead, Mann claims her grandfather saw a UFO that had crashed. There were also six bodies of dead beings that weren't human.
Before America's involvement in World War II, the Sikeston Herald reported the Missouri Institute of Aeronautics was located in Sikeston. The purpose of the air base was to train U.S. Army pilots and had been in operation since 1940. It has since been disbanded. The crash near Sikeston could have been an aircraft from the flight training school as opposed to extraterrestrial in origin.
