” Exotic UFO craft are wayyyyy beyond the flight characteristics of a blimp”

Not trying to embarrass you, but have you ever seen an exotic UFO except on TV? I’ve seen craft that didn’t do what they should, but I’m not sure what the origin was. And with the description of what they gave, for our capacity, they described the shape of a blimp. How they got it to go that fast, is above my pay grade. And this one Bright Sky can’t write it off as a weather balloon or swamp gas. I have no suggestions other than an updated Skybus. It looks like a blimp.

We are not so easily embarrassed. No biggy.

... And with the description of what they gave, for our capacity, they described the shape of a blimp. How they got it to go that fast, is above my pay grade. . . .

Sorry, but that strikes both of us as too much of a grope.

There are abundant reports of oblong craft doing exotic 'impossible' maneuvers at super high speeds etc. etc. etc.

Occham's razor in this case would require accepting those abundant reports over the more illogical blimp explanation. Blimps simply do not do what that craft was seen to do.

And, blimps are shaped differently. The oblong UFO tends to be like a supersized Tictac. A blimp is more like a stretched out sphere or bloated elongated tear drop.

There are many claims that the super speeds involved super high tech propulsion . . . and in many cases, warping time and space.

Don't recall if I answered you or not. Both of us were returning home after a Colorado trip. About 30 minutes before twilight, we looked off to the South and saw what initially looked like a balloon too far away to see the gondola.

We pulled over on the side of the road and got the binoculars out. It was not a balloon at all. It was a standard issue, very typical triangle craft--3RB or some such designation in the literature.

It was very high up and quite a long ways South and a bit West of us. It hung motionless in the sky. A balloon at that height would not have been motionless.

But it was clearly the typical 3RB triangle craft with lights on each corner and a larger light in the center on the underside. We watched it for about 20 minutes. The latter part of that, we pulled into a relative's yard and he, wife and neighbors all saw it. Eventually it 'drifted' off higher and further South, out of sight.

It is described as a 'tic-tac' or 'tylenol' shape by the pilots. No visible windows, nacelles, wings or propulsion systems. Not a blimp.

It moved with blinding speed - particularly a DESCENT from above 80,000 feet. Not a blimp.

It was not ever picked up by F-18 or E2C radar, even at visual ranges. Not a blimp.
