Some time ago, a Boeing 747 passenger plane was flying from Saudi Arabia to Nigeria when its two pilots noticed a UFO flying nearby.
This object was not detected by their radar, but it was clearly visible and flying very close to the plane.
It appeared as a small white sphere. The pilots described it as “extremely bright and freely moving across the sky.”
According to Captain Ruud Van Pangemanan, the UFO appeared about 30 minutes after the plane reached cruising altitude. Ruud managed to capture the UFO on his smartphone (video below).
“This is my experience of observing something strange or a UFO. What we see remains a mystery. At first, we thought it was a light aircraft, but it didn’t show up on our radar. Then we thought maybe it was a star, but the other stars weren’t moving. The glowing UFO shone for a long time and moved around.”
Then, a second similar white and brightly glowing sphere appeared near it, followed shortly by a third.
The brightness of the spheres would dim and then increase again. It’s possible that the spheres were simply moving away from the plane and then coming back.
The pilots also considered the possibility that these were drones, but again, drones should have been visible on the radar, and there was nothing there.
Captain Ruud is a very experienced pilot with 32 years of flying experience. He works for Max Air, a Nigerian airline operating domestic and international flights.
