If you think flying saucers man made, prove it. If you think Tic Tac's are man made, prove it.
do YOU believe the pilot [ and by inference believe that birds do not exist above 5000 feet ] or reality - your choice ?
So to the pilot, it's clearly not birds based on his experience. Not even accounting for the other aspects of the sighting which utterly rule out birds. To call out the pilot as some kind of fraud because he makes a statement like that is laughable. He is not a bird expert - he is a fighter jet pilot. He probably (like most everyone else on the planet) would not even realize birds could fly at that altitude. Him making that statement doesn't somehow make him less credible, which is what you seem to be stating.

what utter bollox
you can believe an F/A-18 pilot or you can believe an ignorant ape. Your choice.
utterly wrong
you can believe a " pilot " - who claims birds dont exist above 2000 feet
or you can bekilieve the entire scientific comunity - your choice
i " picked on " that paragraph - an entire paragraph that " explains " his delusion on birds - because - its so utterly retarded - one can only question his entire mental process
but hey - just for teh record - ATS member schuyler . a question :
do YOU believe the pilot [ and by inference believe that birds do not exist above 5000 feet ] or reality - your choice ?
its not my opinion - or claim - its the entire scientific consencus vs your hero pilot
my pithy last retort - do birds exist in colarado ? chad seems to think they cant . denver disagrees - who do you believe ?

It was not birds, dude. Come on now...you think a half dozen extremely experienced Naval aviators mistook a bird for a UFO that openly seems to defy the laws of physics?

The object in question was clocked in radar traveling at 24,000 miles per hour, they’d come down from space, then sit stationary at 30,000ft or 60,000ft and then drop down to sea level almost instantly .78 seconds, sometimes they’d drop into the ocean and be picked up on sonar while traveling twice as fast as the fastest subs know to man

Is there any actual hard evidence of those maneuvers or just several separate disjointed recollections ?
Genuine question as I'm not familiar with all the detail on this case.

irrelevant - he makes a statement - :
" no birds at < insert altitude > "
this is utter drivel
and as thats his " argument " - i am leary of taking anything else he says seriously
ETA - i do not claim it was " birds "
i am merely pointing out that his arguments are flawed

Cant believe people are still arguing about this. It's real, the need to disbelieve is too strong with some people...

Hard pill to swallow for you, but this is military tic tac tech. They showcase the pilot so other militaries can see how there’s tech out there that can completely bewilder the operators of more standard issue tech. The pilot isn’t any different than the monkey in a space helmet giving his reaction to seeing something unknown to him. But... but muh aliens!
