Triangular? That smudge could be anything…

I once took a photo of a bunch of Starlings overflying ATC at St Mawgan, however, when developed the picture appeared to show a weather balloon.

It couldn’t be one of those pesky single engined things that usually accompany PA474 to events, waiting for her to land could it?
Had the same thought when I saw the same picture in that fountain of truth the knowledge The Daily Heil. 😀

These photos always make me chuckle:) in this day and age and even go back a few years. Camera`s have progressed by leaps and bounds, in terms of resolution, focus ability, shutter shake, zoom capability, etc. You get the picture:D. but whenever they release pictures of a new sighting of a supposed UFO`, even new ones! they are like they have been taken by the bloke who had the camera where he had to hold the gunpowder tray above his head:rolleyes:.
Is this just me being cynical or what:confused:

I’d say dust lol. My Canon 30D was notorious for it. Don’t know why people are so quick to jump to UFO’s and Space craft lol

I saw this in the Telegraph this morning. Why is newsprint and peoples’ time wasted on these ridiculous stories?

Well, this is news to me. Had no idea RAF had more than one flying Lanc these days.
Picture is way too grainy to see conclude. Could be anything left to right.
