The following event occurred on wednesday, april 4, 2018 at approximately 3:00 pm arizona time. for around a half an hour i heard a fighter jet flying around the lake havasu city area. after around 20 minutes i was able to spot it directly overhead at an altitude much higher than 30k feet. it was barely visible and i only spotted it for a few seconds, but it was definitely identifiable as a fighter jet. it appeared to be flying in a tight circle. i can’t remember if it had a contrail or not. i lost track of it after just a few seconds, then heard it flying out of the area. after about a minute i heard it come back and again spotted it again flying in a circle and in just about the same spot. i lost track of it again after just a couple of seconds, and shortly afterward it left the area for good. having already seen two unusual incidents in this area in the past couple of months, i bought a canon vixia hf r800 camcorder with 32x optical zoom, which arrived just over a week ago. it’s impossible to track objects on the display when they’re high in the sky in broad daylight, so i just kind of pan the camcorder around the sky in the general area of what i see and hope for the best. the focus was set to infinite and the zoom was set to 32x optical (no digital). hopefully i can improvise some sort of crosshair on it before long. after the second sighting, i went inside and downloaded about 10 minutes of video to the pc and was able to catch something. this first video is of a white object. i don’t know what it is. the perceived direction of flight is probably not the true direction or true speed because i was panning around slowly. a few seconds into the video you see a commercial jet that was flying either to or away from la. i can’t remember which. the clip between the white object and the jet is unedited. it will give you a real good indication of their relative sizes. for most of the day, i thought maybe the small white object was the afterburner of the fighter jet. later on, i realized that if it was afterburner, then the jet maybe should have been bigger in the film. either way, i don’t know. i’m not an expert. one thing i do remember, though, both times when i saw the jet i don’t recall seeing any afterburner flame. i also know that when i twice observed the fighter jet it did not look anything like the white object in the video. it just looked like a fighter jet flying way up high in the sky. also attached is a screen print of the white object and the commercial jet side by side so you can compare relative observed sizes. list of attachments: ufo1 - short, real-time unedited video of the white object and a commercial airliner. ufo1-slomo - edited clip showing white object in real-time then slow motion with orientation changed to fill the video better. jet-sizes - picture of jet and white object side-by-side for size comparison.
