Sightings from Commercial Airplanes

Artist's rendition of the JAL's UFO encounter in 1986
Updated 25.1.2014 This page deals solely with sightings from within commercial airplanes - by the pilots and/or the passengers. There are many such sightings, and with today's mobile phones with good cameras, some good enough videos are taken as well. Pilots with their greater experience are of course the key witnesses, but the passengers on the other hand have seldom any pressure or reason to hide what they have witnessed.

For the sake of clarity place names are given here for the approximate location in the air. Private planes included as well.
