Pilots in two separate planes have reported seeing an unidentified flying object (UFO) passing above them in the US state of Arizona.
On February 24 this year, pilots radioed in to Air Traffic control to report an unusual sight.
The flights were both following a similar path north of Tucson eastwards between 3.30pm and 4.15pm that day.
"It wasn't an airplane, but it was flying in the opposite direction," a Learjet pilot is heard saying in an audio recording published by The Drive.
A few minutes later, the pilot of an American Airlines flight from San Diego to Dallas spotted the UFO.
"Something just passed over us," he said.
"I don't know what it was, but it was at least two-three thousand feet above us."
"I couldn't make it out if it was a balloon or whatnot, but it was just really beaming light or had a big reflection and several thousand feet above us going the opposite direction."
The UFO did not appear on radar and did not communicate with air traffic control.
