neil,

furthermore, not only do Balloons or weather balloons not have a tendency to out run drug patrolling lear jets but they are rarely used by drug cartels that is unless they come equipped with the latest in invisibility technology...

and before you start, i'm afraid your not the first "Neil" i've had the misfortune to encounter, the other son-of-a-bitch (and i mean that quite literally) grew up to be a psychotic-pathalogical liar and cleptomaniac as well. i don't know whats to be gained coming here and dropping ridiculous explanations like that but....

...your explanation, is "Rank",

and no i don't think your really a cia agent, they'd have to be pretty desperate to have someone like you...

thanks for playing

I did a lot of info pulling to try and get to the bottom of it, Had to
pretty much throw out the pilots testimony and concentrate on just the
images and location.

someones mind)

For those of you that can't be bothered to check out the thread (since that
happens occasionally)
Simply the Video and a few still frames concluded that Hot Air Balloons were
in fact the mysterious in Identified craft.  On March 5th 2004 It was the
last day of the Business Aviation Show at Toluca, Mexico.

It's possible to look at the footage and identify a mountain top (by the
looks of it) and the readout can give you a basic idea of the direction they
were looking in relationship to their location on a map.

It would be possible for Balloonists to fly up to 10km-12km altitude or
higher to get into the Jet Stream that on that particular day was at it's
centre 170mph.

Feel free to look at if further, but I definitely think it's Identified.
