HWY 99 UAP Drone Sightings News

Did anyone else see the drones swarming the highway on the night of Nov. 3rd?

I was on my way down from Albany and saw 12 of the them, spread out between Halsey and the Eugene airport. They were different shapes, sizes, and they were not flying in a grid like you would expect them to if they were surveying. I know some of you are probably giggling at my bad photos, but I promise this was not the moon/stars; in person you could clearly see the bodies of the drones. At first I thought was they were being used for farming purposes, but after watching the news updates about everything happening in New Jersey, I don't know what to think.

True. Highly doubtful was a drone though. To quote 1 of the handful of pilots " it moved at speeds that are impossible to describe" basically in nutshell. The pilots don't think they were drones anyway

It’s impossible to determine how far a point of light is at night, especially at higher altitudes. What those pilots describe as far away and moving at impossible to describe speeds was likely much closer to them and moving at a reasonable speed. There’s a reason these sightings only happen in the dark.

That makes no sense. Doubting several experienced pilots is difficult for me. It's likely they knew what they were seeing and no not too far if it was showing up on radar really. Planes don't go up and down in seconds. And there's sightings in the day. Have you seen Investigation Alien on Netflix

I am an experienced pilot. I’m saying what I’m saying based on experience. Aircraft can move up and down in seconds, especially drones. There’s almost always a reasonable explanation for these “sightings” but acknowledging that doesn’t get views or clicks.
