The conversation of baffled pilots tracking 'super bright' UFOs 'moving real quick' above their planes in Texas has been revealed.
The short audio heard flight crews on American Airlines and Spirit planes speaking with air traffic control (ATC) on the night of November 30, as they were both flying into the Dallas-Fort Worth airport.
The American Airlines pilot was the first to contact ATC, saying: 'We are following these two lights that are up above us that are kind of jogging back-and-forth, left and right, for the past, like, half hour.'
A Spirit Airlines pilot was then heard describing a similar experience, noting their flight crew was 'watching them for about an hour or two in the northwest sky.'
He continued to explain that he saw the same phenomenon a week earlier.
ATC relayed that nothing was showing up on the radar, adding more mystery to what was seen in the skies above Texas.
The American Airlines pilot, flying from Louisville, Kentucky to Dallas-Fort Worth, said that the odd lights were above his cruising altitude of 34,000 feet.
'The lights were quite a bit above us on the horizon,' the pilot later explained.
'My first thought was satellites, but they kept getting super bright and [going] away over and over.'
Fort Worth ATC checked in with the US Air Force about possible activity over two, nearby 'military operations areas' (MOAs) — at the pilot's behest — but neither MOA had craft in the skies that night, as confirmed on radar.
Baffled pilots with American Airlines and Spirit tracked two unexplained, 'super bright' UFOs 'kinda jogging back and forth, left and right,' over Dallas, Texas. And at least one motorist in the Dallas-Fort Worth area also noted the UFOs that night, posting video to TikTok (pictured above)
The video (screencapture above), taken near Dallas Fort Worth International Airport on November 30th, appears to corroborate the two aircrew reports, based on the poster's independent account. 'They would disappear and reappear in different formations,' the TikToker wrote
'It's gonna sound a little weird,' the pilot about the American Airlines aboard flight ENY3413 can be heard telling Fort Worth air traffic control (ATC) in real time, 'but [...] they get super bright and then go completely dim also.'
While the pilot for the budget passenger airliner Spirit on flight NKS1757 did not mention a change in brightness, he did report getting a much longer look at the two mysterious aerial lights up to two hours of flight time.
And, he explained, the UFOs were moving 'real quick' and about '100 miles out in space.'
The Spirit pilot also added that the odd lights appeared to be independent of each other, not fixed to one object, whether it was terrestrial aircraft, alien flying saucers or something else.
'They split positions,' he told ATC. 'It's the first time I've seen them change relative position.'
The American Airlines pilot explicitly asked ATC whether or not the US military had activity in the Rivers, Oklahoma 'military operations area' (MOA) to the north, which is used by the Air Force's 138th Fighter Group.
'I asked if the RIVERS MOA was hot and they said 'no' with nobody on radar,' the pilot told the YouTube flight-tracking channel VISAviation.
'Do you know if the Rivers MOA is hot? You got anybody messing around over there?' the pilot of AA flight ENY3413 can be heard asking on radio.
'It is cold,' ATC replied. 'I am curious why you ask?'
The American Airlines pilot, who was flying from Louisville, Kentucky that night, said that the odd UFO lights were above his own cruising altitude of 34,000 feet: 'The lights were quite a bit above us on the horizon [...] they kept getting super bright and [going] away over and over'
Another Tik Tok user in the area, who posts as @godandtruth777, might have also captured the UFOs on film (above), commenting: 'Seen in DFW! And they didn't look like planes!'
The pilot also enquired about Shirley MOA north of Little Rock, Arkansas, used by Arkansas Air National Guard's 188th Fighter Wing, but this MOA was 'cold' that night as well.
'Nobody on the radar,' the pilot noted. 'It was super odd because they were high and fast and kept with us for a long time.'
'They kept the same 1-2 o'clock position on us for about 250 miles,' as he wrote in his email to VASAviation.
'And would be moving in formation, sometimes really fast on the horizon.'
After their half-hour long UFO encounter, this American Airlines flight landed in Dallas-Fort Worth around 9:42pm local time.
A third passenger jet, American Airlines flight AA2800, was also nearby in the sky that night but it is unclear whether anyone on board also caught a glimpse of the strange, blinking and fast-moving lights.
And at least one motorist in the Dallas-Fort Worth area also captured UFOs in the sky that night, posting video to TikTok under her handle @laurenallison45 — and claiming 'No they arent airplanes. Positive of that!'
'I've lived here my entire life, and I have never seen anything like this,' Lauren Allison said in her post. 'What is that?!' she can be heard wondering in her clip.
The citizen video, taken near Dallas Fort Worth International Airport on November 30, appears to corroborate the two aircrew reports, based on the poster's independent account.
'They would disappear and reappear in different formations,' the TikToker noted, identifying a distinct feature of the UFO lights that were also reported by the American Airlines pilot flying in from Louisville aboard flight ENY3413.
