1
00:00:05,269 --> 00:00:02,869
this video cropped up on reddit it shows

2
00:00:07,030 --> 00:00:05,279
a white cigar-shaped object being viewed

3
00:00:09,270 --> 00:00:07,040
from the window of a plane it's

4
00:00:11,990 --> 00:00:09,280
described as a tic-tac and the location

5
00:00:13,749 --> 00:00:12,000
given is in eastern kansas

6
00:00:15,669 --> 00:00:13,759
now you'll probably recognize this as

7
00:00:17,109 --> 00:00:15,679
being just another plane the low

8
00:00:19,029 --> 00:00:17,119
resolution and the lighting mean you

9
00:00:21,269 --> 00:00:19,039
only see the white fuselage not the

10
00:00:23,590 --> 00:00:21,279
darker wings and even most of the people

11
00:00:26,390 --> 00:00:23,600
on ufo twitter and ufo reddit seem to

12
00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:26,400
agree it's probably just a plane

13
00:00:31,269 --> 00:00:28,880
but which plane and can we prove it's a

14
00:00:32,950 --> 00:00:31,279
plane

15
00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:32,960
it was shared on metabunk yesterday

16
00:00:36,310 --> 00:00:34,000
evening

17
00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:36,320
firstly the plane type was identified by

18
00:00:41,910 --> 00:00:40,000
flaky as a united airlines embraer e175

19
00:00:43,830 --> 00:00:41,920
based on the image of the wing i then

20
00:00:46,069 --> 00:00:43,840
found the original report in the mufon

21
00:00:47,910 --> 00:00:46,079
database and extracted the precise time

22
00:00:49,029 --> 00:00:47,920
of the start of the video from its exif

23
00:00:54,069 --> 00:00:49,039
data

24
00:00:56,069 --> 00:00:54,079
2007 31 utc on september the 1st 2022

25
00:00:59,430 --> 00:00:56,079
then easy muffin found two planes that

26
00:01:02,709 --> 00:00:59,440
seemed like a great match skywest 5553

27
00:01:04,710 --> 00:01:02,719
flying for united and delta 982 they

28
00:01:06,789 --> 00:01:04,720
also identified features in the terrain

29
00:01:08,950 --> 00:01:06,799
where the planes crossed paths that

30
00:01:10,469 --> 00:01:08,960
perfectly matched the video it turned

31
00:01:12,870 --> 00:01:10,479
out that the location in the video

32
00:01:13,910 --> 00:01:12,880
description was off by over 300 miles to

33
00:01:16,070 --> 00:01:13,920
the west

34
00:01:18,550 --> 00:01:16,080
flaky downloaded the kml files letting

35
00:01:20,950 --> 00:01:18,560
us look at the adsb gps tracks in google

36
00:01:23,590 --> 00:01:20,960
earth and jar my identified some more

37
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:23,600
matching features in the terrain finally

38
00:01:27,350 --> 00:01:25,680
i took those adsb tracks and the start

39
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:27,360
time of the video and drop them into my

40
00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:29,600
new version of the sitreck simulator

41
00:01:33,990 --> 00:01:31,360
that shows the view of one plane from

42
00:01:37,350 --> 00:01:34,000
another it was a perfect match proving

43
00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:37,360
that these were the actual planes

44
00:01:41,749 --> 00:01:39,520
sitrec allows me to recreate arbitrary

45
00:01:44,230 --> 00:01:41,759
situations in a variety of ways i

46
00:01:47,109 --> 00:01:44,240
originally set it up for gimbal go fast

47
00:01:48,870 --> 00:01:47,119
flare one aguadia and others

48
00:01:51,350 --> 00:01:48,880
but i recently extended it to do these

49
00:01:53,109 --> 00:01:51,360
plane from plane ufo sightings and it's

50
00:01:54,710 --> 00:01:53,119
been very useful in proving that what we

51
00:01:56,389 --> 00:01:54,720
see is a plane

52
00:01:58,230 --> 00:01:56,399
here's another similar case near lake

53
00:02:00,789 --> 00:01:58,240
michigan

54
00:02:03,030 --> 00:02:00,799
lessons learned

55
00:02:05,030 --> 00:02:03,040
firstly if you take a video from a plane

56
00:02:06,469 --> 00:02:05,040
then note your flight number that will

57
00:02:08,790 --> 00:02:06,479
save a lot of work

58
00:02:10,790 --> 00:02:08,800
also note the exact time down to the

59
00:02:12,949 --> 00:02:10,800
second including what time zone that

60
00:02:14,869 --> 00:02:12,959
time is in if possible share the

61
00:02:15,830 --> 00:02:14,879
original video file direct from your

62
00:02:16,949 --> 00:02:15,840
camera

63
00:02:19,350 --> 00:02:16,959
also

64
00:02:20,790 --> 00:02:19,360
tools are a great time saver it takes a

65
00:02:22,550 --> 00:02:20,800
lot of work to program them but if

66
00:02:24,309 --> 00:02:22,560
you're doing the same manual process

67
00:02:26,309 --> 00:02:24,319
over and over again then you should bite

68
00:02:27,589 --> 00:02:26,319
the bullet and automate it with a little

69
00:02:29,589 --> 00:02:27,599
code
