AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the ongoing phenomenon of Flying Triangle sightings in the United States, particularly noting an increase since the 1990s. These triangular aircraft are reportedly being deployed near populated areas and major highways, exhibiting behaviors that deviate from traditional covert operations of unacknowledged aircraft. The origins and intentions behind these crafts remain unclear. Some participants express belief in the existence of these crafts, citing credible reports, such as those from Illinois police, which suggest advanced technology. Observations indicate that these aircraft can hover silently at low altitudes and demonstrate significant acceleration capabilities. However, there is skepticism regarding the extent of their technological advancements, with some attributing extraordinary claims to exaggerated perceptions. Overall, the discussion highlights a blend of intrigue and uncertainty surrounding the Flying Triangle enigma.

NIDS Investigations of the Flying Triangle Enigma.

August 2004
Summary
The United States is currently experiencing a wave of Flying Triangle sightings that may have intensified in the 1990s, especially towards the latter part of the 1990s. The wave continues. The Flying Triangles are being openly deployed over and near population centers, including in the vicinity of major Interstate Highways. The behavior of these Triangular aircraft does not conform to previous patterns of covert deployment of unacknowledged aircraft. Neither the agenda nor the origin of the Flying Triangles are currently known. [continued]

A synopsis of recent events - 1990 through 2004. Included is a summary of archieved data.

I'm still not quite sure about the flying triangle reports. I am convinced that these are real craft that are often seen as reported, but some good reports such as those from the Illinois police - who chased a flying and hovering triangle while at close range - seem to imply a super-technology. This may simply be due to exaggerated memories since nothing beyond our imagination was seen in that particular case. It may be that we have a little technology here that would surprise most people. At the least, we must have a silent propulsions system capable of producing dramatic acceleration in a relatively large aircraft. This craft is also able to hover silently at very low altitudes such as 100 feet above ground level. I don't see many claims [relative to the total number of claims] of FTs zipping out of the atmosphere in the blink of an eye, as do other reported, alleged crafts.

Every day we learn new things. Sometimes it's just a small fact or realization. No matter how trivial or random, let's start recording our daily lessons. Please start off with "Today I learned". Keep commentary to a minimum and just LIKE posts. I'll start! Today I learned that you clean up a white hat by spraying some cleaner with bleach on it (rinse before putting it back on your head!)
