So I was just out walking the grounds and heard a very, very low rumble in the sky and looked up to see a monstrously large, silver plane flying maybe 20-25K above me seemingly attached to a much smaller, yet still big, silver plane. If they weren't attached they were flying directly together very closely. Never seen anything like it. I live under a Europe - Montreal/Toronto/Detroit/Minneapolis flight path, and these two planes were heading due east towards Europe. What the hell did I just see? Something military, I assume. For reference, I see transatlantic flights all the time, and those flights are higher (guessing maybe 10-15K feet higher) and the planes are notably smaller, though I'm sure that has something also to do with the higher altitude. Post itt strange things you've seen in the sky.

I actually saw that too (maybe 10 min ago)- did it have bright lights like a rocket engine instead of a jet?

I was drunk one time and I thought I saw a UFO and then my friend pointed out that it was actually a satellite. pretty sure he's a reptillian.

So I'm clear, this was a smaller but still large (maybe like a 747) plane directly above the front nose of an incredibly larger silver plane.

FYI Europe, there's a super plane due to arrive on your shores in approximately 6 hours.

I believe the plane, upon further research, was a Consolidated PBY-5a Catalina OP. Does that sound right? No idea why it had rockets on it. Maybe it was firing JATOs mid-flight?

You know that scene at the end of air force one where the presidential jet is refuelled mid-air by the army fuel plane? you probably saw that exact situation occurring.

hmmm. nope. i can't think of any type of flight maneuver where a small plane flies up behind a larger plane and attaches its nose to it. why would they do that it just sounds dangerous and there isn't anything that a big plane could have that a smaller cooler plane wouldn't

when a plane loves another plane very much sometimes he can stick his penis in the other planes vagina

P sure I've seen pictures posted on this very forum that depict similar acts being done by two consenting planes.

probably something like this OP? in-flight refuelling; the jet probably making the fuel plane seem larger than it is? e: nevermind, just saw that you said the small plane was infront

It was almost certainly swamp gas, a weather balloon, or a Samsquanch. If you saw a Samaquanch, then happy days! Stay safe, Samsquanch ghost

Sounds like one of the older models of the 9-10 Brezhnev IV series utility carriers.

Has anyone said the planes were having sex yet? They were UFO planes full of aliens having plane sex.
