RAW VIDEO: Mysterious Contrail Off Calif.
Lorrie LaibleI find it intersting that no one “claims” to know about this. Yesterday we were returning from Honolulu on Hawaiian Airlines with an arrival time of 3:25 pm at LAX. Approximately 270 miles away our pilot came on the speaker and told us we would be rerouted over Big Sur California due to military maneuvers in our path. Maybe they should speak with the pilot of our flight.

Yeah that's the post...thanks TigersEye...:o) The link to the other article here
quote from article: "At the very least, according to this source, it was a missile. As to whether it was ours or theirs, he does not know. But he said “they do,” a reference to the brass. The rumors circulating “within the [Pentagon] rings” suggest that it was a deliberate launch of a missile from “Chinese property at sea” intended as a warning to the U.S."
So like I said...either these people are flat out lying or something more than a contrail is going on~

Listen for yourself what this man Gil has to say:
Cameraman: “You could tell that the object, whatever it was, was spiralling in the sky. It was spinning.”
“As I zoomed in on it and got tighter, you could tell it was spinning, and going in a WESTERLY direction.” (Away from LA.)
Sound like an airplane ?
Missiles spin, don’t they? (I don’t know so I am asking, hoping for info not ad hominem attacks.)
The corkscrew smoke plume going right to the base of the object can be very clearly seen in the post of the still image I made previously.
This, from a man who saw it, with a 2x telephoto zoom lens. No one here has seen it. No one.
“Saw something similar a week before.” Well, many missile launches are made off of LA and Catalina, but they are announced before hand by the USA. Not like this unannounced one.
I quote the cameraman further:
“At one point it seemed to separate”: Booster fall off? As can barely be seen in one of the earlier versions of this report (not sure if still up or not).
“And then continue further up into the sky, and then finally disappear.”
Well, what can I say? This is what missiles do, this is what a missile launch looks like, this was a missile launch.
“Spectacular” said the cameraman and the former Under Secretary of Defense.
“This is a submarine launched missile” said the 3 star General on Fox News.
Solid propellant missile launch said Doug Richardson, the editor of Jane’s Missiles and Rockets, examined the video for the Times of London and said he was left with little doubt.
“It’s a solid propellant missile,” he told the Times. “You can tell from the efflux [smoke].”
Richardson said it could have been a ballistic missile launched from a submarine or an interceptor, the defensive anti-missile weapon used by Navy surface ships.
Gee folks,
what do you think?
Solid propellant missile launch, or have the 4 angry FReepers arrayed against the above experts solved it from their keyboards ... ?
We inform, you decide.
