6-6-10 BILINGA AUSTRALIA
We were lying on the beach on a sunny Sunday afternoon, blue sky, few clouds.
We were watching a jet airliner which had recently taken off from Gold Coast Airport on a northerly heading (possibly 3000 feet altitude).
We suddenly noticed something following behind the aircraft on the starboard side, at about a 45 degree angle from the aircraft, about 200 meters away (large passenger aircraft never follow this closely), and traveling at the same rate of speed.
We could not identify the aircraft following because it didn’t have any wings, a tail plane, or flashing lights.
It was oval/cigar shaped, and it was shiny like a mirror.
The jet airliner flew into a small cloud and then reappeared out of the otherside continuing on its path.
The unidentified aircraft flew into the small cloud and disappeared – did not appear out of the other side of the cloud.
This event happened over a period of about 30 seconds and we couldn’t understand what we were seeing. Unfortunately we didn’t have a camera available to take photos.
I am a commercial helicopter pilot and quite familiar with aircraft laws, rules and protocol. The following craft we could not identify as any type of conventional aircraft.
Thanks to Ufo Casebook and MUFON CMS. Airliner photo is a rendering of the event.
