The general spoke too soon, oops. Proven beyond any possible doubt that it’s a plane. Heck, as soon as I saw that zoomed video and the contrail being pushed to the side at the horizon, I knew that thing was in the air a looonnnggg time.
He needs to suck it up and admit that it was indeed a proven and identified commercial flight.
Despite your ardent comments this whole thing is still a draw and no clear winner has appeared in this discussion as I tend to find other experts like the General just as valid as your possibly pseudo-science.
Specially when photos of an ADMITTED missile launch in that area tend to be a close match to the one being denied.
Hard to say “this photo IS a launch” and “this photo is NOT a launch” when its hard to see a difference.
Speed still to be explained.
Relax, this is a discussion - sharing of opinions - not bowing to yours - or mine.
Specially as nobody is trying to grind their personal axe rather than have an interesting Saturday afternoon chat.
