Former student pilot sees an object that he can't explain.I was in my back yard with my son flying a RC airplane when I just happend to see a cylinder shaped object above the clouds. I tried to keep an eye on it but I didnt want to crash my airplane so I had to switch between the plane and object while I landed the plane. I observed the white colored object go behind the clouds and reappear. The thing appeared to move very slow and made no noise. I can't really say as to the size of the object with nothing else in the sky to compare it to but if I had to guess I would say the length of an airliner but twice the diameter. The object had just a dull white color, no markings, and nothing that would suggest control surfaces or engines.Once I landed my RC plane which was about 30 seconds after I spotted the object, It had disappeared. I did not see it vanish nor did I hear anything. There were only a few clouds in the sky that evening so I dont think it could just hide in a cloudbank.
