Virgin Atlantic Flight Overtakes UFO After Taking Off From JFK Airport

This Footage Of A 'UFO' Overtaking A Passenger Plane Is Making Everyone Freak Out

This is the moment that a supposed UFO overtakes a Virgin Atlantic flight leaving JFK Airport in New York earlier in the month.

The shaky footage shows the plane taking off as normal and then just before it passes in front of some trees you can make out a small cylindrical object passing quickly on the right hand side of the aircraft.

Captured on the 7 July, the footage has only just reached prominence due to the unusual shape of the object that appears in the footage.

While some have suggested that this is nothing more than simply another plane in the background, UFO experts have suggested that the proximity between the plane and the object is just too narrow for it to be another aircraft.

Speaking to MailOnline, UFO expert Russ Kellett suggests that it could in fact just be a plane:

"It comes behind from the aeroplane's tail, you can tell it's behind but it does move sort of like a bird, when something's moving when the wings are flapping. If it's moving away, it will give that appearance."

Other experts including Scott Waring at UFOSightingsDaily however believe that this is clear evidence of an 'Alien Drone' observing the air traffic around the airport.

"Alien drones do investigate everything that flies, from planes to kites they shoot past to do a quick scan and satisfy their curiosity."

Waring goes on to cite an incident which he caught on camera in Taiwan just a year ago when he spotted a small fast moving object pass in front of a jet that was also taking off.

The phenomenon of capturing UFOs around airports is well documented but since the explosion of consumer drone it has become even more difficult to prove their authenticity.
