Wow, Freaky. Maybe The F-15's Were Just Escorting Some New Prototype. Or Just Seeing How It Performed...

Hmm, i don't know about the UFO. I really don't know what to say about it, prehaps it was just a trick of the light the guy saw. But i found the *pop* up ad very entertaining .

They don't test fly ANY Prototypes over DC Airspace.. that is usually done at 'area 51' where they have 300 square miles to fly.

Did you know that the base called 'area 51' has the worlds largest landing strip? You could land a shuttle at each end at the same time and they wouldn't hit. amazingly large! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Up until a few years ago you could take pictures of the place from a near by mountain, until the gov. extended the security line to stop this from happening. Alot of security for a non-existent base.

[/QUOTE]Ah, Black Country they call it isnt it? The area bigger than switzerland around Area 51? The place where anybody not authorised to be there can be shot on sight? Where american law does not apply? Definatly the best place to test a new prototype.

With the lack of pics and a vague description its not easy to say much about what it is, but it dosent sound like any aircraft ive heard of.
