UFO Seen Over Blazing Tower In London

The wings are significantly thinner. Unless the light hit them it would be easy to not see them in that video.

From an angle viewed from the ground?
Same thickness if not more..

From the side the wings are significantly smaller
. However the video is from a lateral view which should obviously blur the wings in SOME sort of recognition.

Too big, and as far as I remember they aren't allowed to fly in UK airspace except specific training areas.

That was some crazy triple posting.. sry for the glitch

I've spent decades watching aircraft of all types, and I've never seen one where the wings were even close to looking the same thickness of the fuselage. The only way you could conceivably do that is from a very specific angle. This is well to the side, which is going to make the wings harder to see. The only way you'll see them is light reflecting off them.

Thanks man, just speculating

Could it be any type of drone ? Leaving out the permission to fly in that airspace. a reply to: Zaphod58

Could be a London Fire Service drone.

It's not fake (CGI) for it was captured on at least two news videos.
What some are saying is it was a drone...sent up to get a better prospective of the situation.

But unfortunately to the viewers: drones are now the new 'Chinese lanterns' which took the place of 'swamp gas' so.....it all boils down to: Truth is whatever you want it to be.

It looks like something anomalous and not conventional. No protrusions of any kind like on conventional aircraft. Appears to be moving pretty fast, and is a tad blurry as if it is further away from the camera's optimal focus. And it might be pretty big because of that. Seems disk shaped. Hard to say what it is.

Could be a plane. Looks like the focal distance on the camera was near, and the object would then be at infinity. The difference makes things blur out in the background.

Also, it moved like a plane.

Same here.. my eyes are always up and ive had three different circumstances thanks to such diligence.

However.. there is NO distinction of wings. As a graphic artist with 20+ years of digital experience, this is not a plane imo.

Now that was a UFO. Looked like it was spinning

a reply to: CuriousPaddy

At that size, I'd say it would be more in the Global Hawk class if it was one.

a reply to: Bspiracy

I've seen many a plane that you didn't see the wings until the angle was right, or something reflected off them.

Now that's not a Frisbee is it?...Make us look like dam fools.

This is the original footage with the times showing.



Just a commercial aircraft out of focus in the background, in my humble opinion. The time on the BBC feed is 1219 British Summer Time. The clock on the TV appears to be fast and reading 1225pm.

Running back fight tracking software for 1119 GMT (1219 BST) shows that an Air Canada Flight was north of the tower block flying east to west.

You can also see that the area north of the tower is busy with commercial air traffic.

Track log of flight

Remember that the camera is focused on the fireman and tower. The aircraft will be out of focus and appear as an indistinct shape.

I had a look for the area for the filming location and found that it is south of the tower block in Avondale Park Gardens

From Euronews footage the match up can be made with the rooftops, aerials and trees.

Oh well it does look like somebody filmed their TV Set ? Looks like a plane thats on an angle though and yes being nesrbtwo major airports . How far is Gatwick?

Again.. the wings of a plane are similar in thickness of a plane. A cigar shaped blurred plane makes no sense.

Sheesh.

It's a plane climbing in altitude having just left Heathrow

Yes I see them all the time going past my house, near an airport . Other times I see wings.
