U.S. Navy drafting new guidelines for reporting UFOs

B.S.! Flying an aircraft requires a lot more skills from a human than typing code on a PC in your pajamas and talking about space. if you are a pilot who is flying for 10-20-30 years. You can tell. Now, this is not 1 pilot - 1 event we are talking. Many cases. Im not claiming its proving existence of ET or anything like that.

Just that perhaps there is something there.

SR-71 pilots complained about having trouble telling stars from fishing boats to the point where an additional artificial horizon was added for night flying. There were reports of pilots rolling the plane up to 45 degrees without realizing it.

The altitude the SR-71 cruises at is nowhere near where these sightings are occurring, it's practically in space.
