The object was spotted by the pilot of Olympic Airways flight 266 from Athens, and the sighting was corroborated by staff at Athens Airport and a nearby Greek air force base. Pilots of two other passenger jets also reported seeing the body.The eyewitnesses described it as looking like a large star, although it was moving erratically and constantly changing shape.Two fighter jets were sent to investigate the sighting over the Greek capital in November 2007 but the object shot up into the sky and vanished before they could get a clear view.

Those who write UFO stories as distraction propaganda may be affected by generations of interbreeding in the families that pay their way.
They’re comming to get me, da dum, da dum.
What? No Quig yet to add his transparent attempts at wise talk?
You seem to imply that UFOs are not real. Do you think there is no such thing as UFOs?
It is just that when identified they turn out not to be alien in origin.
I believe that during the 80s and late 70s some of the tests of the F-117 prototypes and operational craft, as well as the B-2, could easily have been mistaken as alien UFOs. Maybe people see experimental craft, and being UFOs (since they are not identified) and of strange construction (maybe for radar-signature minimization, or maybe trying to optimize performance at hypersonic speed leading to unorthodox shaping), and assume they are ALIEN UFOs.
As for Alien UFOs, the crazy thing is that people automatically scoff at the idea. Say 'I saw a UFO' and people immediately think you are crazy. Say aliens may exist, and you are a kook. It's not the disbelief ....it is the total and utter derision, the almost spring-loaded need for people to mock the person saying that. Which is quite interesting ...and for the most part only for aliens (someone can come and say they saw a lake-monster in Lake Tele or at Loch Ness, or they saw any one of various abominable/yeti/sasquatch/wendigo etc hairy-man monsters ....and they will get a keen, though skeptical, audience. However, mention aliens, and you'll be luck not to get an insult before the sentence is concluded). Again, weird. Almost brainwashed.
Personally, I don't buy into that UFO mumbo-jumbo (I'd have to freaking see one, and then wait 10 years to see if the craft I saw will not appear in some flightJournal magazine as some secret military prototype super-jet) ....but I find no reason to mock people who do, and I also know that the universe is ONE --- BIG ----PLACE.
Thus;
that the exist = that they exist
you'll be luck not to = you'll be lucky not to
etc etc etc. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
I don’t.
Those who write anti-UFO propaganda in an effort to decieve people as to what is really going on should be..............
Oh yeah, whatshisname’s name is Quix not Quig.
Great illustration.
Where’d you find it?
I saw too many “lights in the sky” when I was stationed out west to say that there isn’t something going on. What it is, I couldn’t say, but there is something out there.
This Wednesday, the “UFO Hunters” show will talk about the O’Hare Airport UFO and other pilot reports.
Just DARPA doing some joyriding before their funds dry up...
