Shape: Changing | Duration: 3 seconds
Source:

Never saw a shape ,just three bright large lights .Clear skies no moon, Spotted three bright yellow orange lights approx. 30to 35 degrees from horizontal. Lights changed postion from a slight v shape to a sharp v shape. As if they were like building blocks changing postion. The lights looked large not like any strobe type light from a plane,more like landing lights. My husband said "what the hell is that" we watched and then it disappeared. Shortly after we noticed alot of aircraft moving fast across the sky.The area we were at was in the country away from a town , on top of a hill.
