I left the tavern last Tuesday night Kansas City, where he played pool in the pool league. My friend and I were in the alley behind the Quaff Buffet, near 10th and Broadway downtown. It was about 22: 00 central time. 

I happened to look up when I noticed what I first thought was a flock of geese flying over us in a V-shaped formation. There are nine in total, one leading and four trailing on each side. But then you could see a dark triangular outline. It was a black triangle. 

A few years ago, I saw a huge structure near McConnell Air Force Base in Wichita, Kansas. This one was much smaller, or much farther away. The headlights were also set up differently.

He was about to disappear from view over the building when I told my friend. 

"Look, it's a UFO," I said. 

He looked up when they floated to where the view was blocked by the building. Then he looked at me and smiled. 

"Did you see that?" 

"No, man," he said. "You're just kidding, right?" 

"Come on," I said, grabbing his arm and running to the middle of the alley. 

He saw that I was serious, and we ran about twenty paces and looked up. Of course, here it is. it was completely silent and drifted rather than flew. It was moving quite strongly on the yaw and was not going straight ahead, but at an angle of about 45 degrees from its front.

We could see it very clearly for another full minute. 

"It's a trick," my friend said. 

"Look how slow it's moving," I said. "It moves so slowly that it almost hovers. And you don't hear anything. It's a black triangle."

As others have already noted, stealth does not have such flight characteristics. I've seen them several times, and there were no lights under them either. There were no other messages. However, it flew right over the center of the city. 

I can't confirm the altitude, but it looks like it was quite small and flew at an altitude of 700 to 1000 feet. Why would they deliberately fly a secret plane over the KC center, where anyone looking up can see it? And everyone lights up? And how do they silently drift at an angle like them?

I can't believe how frequent these observations are becoming.

Original news

Last Tuesday night, I was leaving a Kansas City tavern where I was playing pool in a pool league. Myself and a friend were in the alley behind the Quaff Buffet, near 10th and Broadway downtown. It was about 10:00 pm, Central Standard time. I happened to be looking up, when I noticed what I first thought was a flock of geese flying over us in a V formation. Nine altogether, one leading and four trailing each side. But then you could see the dark triangular outline. It was a black triangle. I have seen a huge one in the past near McConnell AFB in Wichita, Kansas a few years back. This one was much smaller, or else a lot farther away. The lights were configured differently too.

It was about ready to drift out of sight over a building, when I mentioned it to my friend. “Look, there’s a UFO”, I said. He glanced up just as they were drifting where a building blocked the view. Then he looked at me and smiled. “Did you see it?”, I asked. “No, man”, he said. “You’re just kidding me, right?”. “C’mon”, I said, grabbing his arm as I ran towards the middle of the alley. He saw I was serious and we ran about twenty steps and looked up. Sure enough, there it was. it was totally silent and was drifting rather than flying. It had quite a yaw going, and was not going straight ahead but drifting in about a 45 degree tangent from its front.

We could see it very clearly for about another full minute. “That’s a stealth”, said my friend. “Look at how slow it’s moving”, I said. “It’s moving so slowly, it’s almost hovering. And you can’t hear a thing. It’s a black triangle.”

As others have already pointed out, the stealths do not have these flight characteristics. I have seen them a number of times, and they did not have these lights lit up underneath them either. There have been no other reports. Yet it flew right over the downtown area. I cannot validate the altitude, but the appearance was that it was fairly small and gliding at around 700 to 1000 feet at most. Why would they purposely fly a secret aircraft over downtown KC where anyone looking up can see it? And all light up? And how do they silently drift obliquely like they do?

I can’t believe how frequent these sightings are becoming.
