American Airlines not denying possible UFO spotting, says: 'Talk to the FBI'

An American Airlines passenger jet traveling from Cincinnati to Phoenix encountered an apparent UFO over northeastern New Mexico Sunday afternoon.

The pilot on flight 2292 radioed around 1:00 p.m. CST and said that the unidentified object was flying right on top of them, according to a transmission recorded by Steve Douglass on his blog, Deep Black Horizon. American Airlines verified to Fox News that the transmission is from flight 2292.

"Do you have any targets up here? We just had something go right over the top of us," the pilot said in the radio transmission.

"I hate to say this but it looked like a long cylindrical object that almost looked like a cruise missile type of thing moving really fast. It went right over the top of us."

American Airlines confirmed that the radio transmission is authentic, but did not give any further comment on the possible alien encounter.

"Following a debrief with our Flight Crew and additional information received, we can confirm this radio transmission was from American Airlines Flight 2292 on Feb. 21," an American Airlines spokesperson told Fox News in a statement. "For any additional questions on this, we encourage you to reach out to the FBI."

The FBI did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday.

Flight 2292 was around 37,000 feet at the time of the sighting, and Albuquerque Center did not respond because local air traffic interfered, according to Douglass. The flight went on to land in Phoenix, Arizona.

That’s your problem. You’re too perfect and they are only looking for Hillbillys and such who know one will believe about their 4th encounter. Guess I’m safe, also. Who needs an anal probe?

It was aliens coming to witness the circus show.

Alb didn’t want to get involved and have the FIB interviewers and press hounding them, so they lied. It is the zeitgeist of our age, lying openly.

Well...Roswell is in New Mexico.

Could it be aliens are searching for the ones who crashed and died at Roswell back in the late 40’s?

When flying a B727 20 years ago from MIA to LGA at FL 330 went through a cluster of white lights flashed all around the aircraft and Center said it was a rocket that fell out of orbit and had broken up on reentry we barely missed being hit.
I’m positive that’s what the crew saw. Seems there was a bulletin issued. Surprised NASA hasn’t cleared that up since they track all space junk. Maybe NASA has but our very truthful news media needs news to sell since President Trump isn’t around.

Looks like a duck, walks like a duck, talks like a duck.

It sounds like a missile to me.

Note that both China and Russia are supposedly ahead of us on hyperfast missile technology.

Why should anyone doubt the government/military are testing these and do NOT want to acknowledge that?

In fact, from an OPSEC point of view, it makes sense to let people think it is aliens.

Yup. Straight answers from the feebee. Like “what happened to hunter niden’s laptop?”, and straight anser is mostly “what (insert missing item, anomaly )?”

Hi.

A suggestion. Don’t talk to the FBI. If the last 25 years is not enough evidence, then...

Pretend every day is “Shut the fu@k up,” Friday.

Probably not a good idea to test them near passenger aircraft flight paths.

Clearly the decision to call the FBI was based on the UFO’s main hatch was operated by a rope, garage door kinda thingie. They’ll put at least 15 agents on this ASAP.
