Thats it


That is the exact one I saw here in Anchorage. It was in the winter and came slowly down the side of the mountains I can see from my office. It
appeared to reflect the color from behind it and you could miss it even if you looked right at it. If it had not been for the unusual lighting that
day I'm not sure I would have seen it. It exactly mimicked the color behind it.
One of my first posts was about this but got no interest. It descended to an area used for military training. It remained level and descended slowly
like a dirigible would except it was that shape and the same length as 737's that routinely fly by that area. They often change the flight patterns
putting that path off limits and they seem to do it more often on days when visibility is very low. There is an old landing field there that is
supposedly not used any more.
As a side note; One week after telling the local paper there were no Ospreys in Alaska, I saw one hover above the trees in plain site and then go back
down to land. Apparently even though the Osprey is not secret they felt it necessary to lie about testing one here.
The photo this thread is about is similar but is not as long or narrow. The photo link you posted is an exact match.
