Christian Van Heist, a Dutch captain who flew 9500 hours, captures a UAP / UFO in the form of TicTac - January 23, 2010 - Spain

The following statement was provided by /u/manwhore25 :

The captured object in the form of a TicTac and the original photo are currently being analyzed by professionals. 

The observation occurred during a flight on a Boeing 737 from Amsterdam to Malaga in the late afternoon of January 23, 2010. We noticed an object far ahead of us, having a rounded-rectangular shape, as if we were looking at the reverse side of the contrail.

But we were flying at 41,000 feet, and there was almost no movement above us at those altitudes. We flew on the "direct route" from Pamplona (PPN) to the FIR of Madrid to Malaga (thus not on the official air route) and all the time we saw an object far, far ahead of us, without changing direction. 

We could not estimate the distance to it, so it was almost impossible to determine its altitude, but in case it was another commercial airliner, we assumed that it could be 100 (nautical) miles ahead of us, and possibly much further. Bearing in mind the distance of 100 miles, it flew much higher than any commercial vehicle, so our curiosity increased.

Original news

Christiaan Van Heijst a Dutch Captain 9,500 flying hours captures TicTac shaped UAP/UFO - January 23 - 2010 - Spain

The following submission statement was provided by /u/manwhore25:

TicTac shaped object captured and original photo being currently analyzed by professionals. More info and original photos and story: https://jpcvanheijst.com/uap

Sighting took place during a flight with a 737 from Amsterdam to Malaga on the late afternoon of Jan 23 2010. We noticed a certain object far ahead of us showing a rounded rectangular shape as if we were looking in the rear side of a contrail.

But we were flying at 41.000 ft and there is hardly any traffic above us at these altitudes. We were on a 'direct route' from Pamplona (PPN) in the Madrid FIR to Malaga (thus not on a formal airway) and saw the object far, far ahead of us all the time, not changing direction. We were unable to estimate its distance, so judging its altitude was near impossible, but in case it was another commercial airliners, we guessed it might have been 100 (nautical) miles ahead of us, possibly much further. With a 100 miles distance in mind, it was flying much higher than any commercial traffic so our curiosity was spiked.
