You may have been right - except that the object as it passes the contrail is clearly behind the trail, not in front of it. Watch the video.
Huh?
I don't get what you are saying.
I watched the video,
Its perceived that it starts behind and ends up in front, the object in question
a Few are saying its above or level with plane making the contrail
Logic tell me its lower and only seems faster because of perspective.
If the UFO is below the aircraft leaving the contrails, one shouldn't be able to see the contrail between the camera and the ufo.
Are you saying we necessarily CAN see contrail between the object and the camera?
I've looked closely, but don't think this video is high enough quality to be able to discern that contrail is visible between the "UFO" and the camera. I can't tell which is closer, but if I were to guess, I think the one not leaving a contrail is closer.
So, It still could be two planes: one farther away from the camera leaving a contrail, and one closer to the camera and not leaving a contrail. And if the two planes were far enough away from each other (which I think is the case), the closer plane would appear to be moving relatively faster because it is closer to the camera.

I don't think the shaped of the object as it appears in the OP's video when they zoom in is not relevant. The zooming + resolution +overexposure of the object would artificially create geometric shapes from the pixels.
That is to say, the shape we see in the zoomed part of the video is not necessarily the true shape of the object.

That was a digital zoom.
Since when does digital zoom increase image clarity?
This is at least a viable clip for discussion. If it's fake they did a good job of not going too crazy with the special effects.
It didn't. It created a lens flare.
No - there isn't lens flare - but in the video it looks like when they edited the video, they zoomed in on just one frame and paused it briefly so you could see the detail. Unless both the UFO and the Aircraft both paused motionless in flight.....
I did see the digital zoom and the still portion.
I also saw a lens flare and heavy pixilation.

My thoughts:
If both have human operators, which is what I suspect, the one in the UFO was displaying his knowledge of the blind spot right behind the jet in its exhaust which another jet cant do. Not unless its a tanker with its engines on the wings that spit their exhaust away from whats behind and below the tail.
The lead aircraft was probably not a fighter. I think you can see it banking and 4 engines are visible. I doubt those were missiles on a smaller jet. They were really far away.
If the UFO was extraterrestrial, then it is on friendly terms with us and practicing war exercises with our conventional aircraft.
IMO if thats the case, then this might be some sort of refueling of exotic tech using mercury or some other metal (just a guess could be anything) sprayed into the air as a kind of floating gas station in the atmosphere itself.
It does seem like both aircraft were aware of each other.
It could just be a conventional areal refueling of an exotic black aircraft operated by humans tailing a large tanker.

The incident was caught on camera by a local resident of New Hampshire in the US, and appears to show what looks like a flying saucer chasing a jet, before it catches up, overtakes and speeds past the plane.
Hmm, Unless it's military dudes playing around, I'm not exactly sure what to make of it.
Thoughts?

It was a brief flash during the zoom.
Perhaps I'm using the wrong terminology.

Looks to me like simply another aircraft at a different altitude. Lower altitude wouldn't produce contrail. They happened to be on a similar track (airways are defined and followed by ATC) but the lower plane looked to be going faster due to the ground perspective.

The problem is, if the lead plane was a passenger jet, a passenger jet cruises at around 550 MPH. The object following is only going slightly faster, hence the time it takes to catch the lead jet up.
Conclusion. It was another jet on the same flight path but higher or lower. Or it was a geriatric alien that hadn't put the pedal to the metal. Your choice.
