A veteran Gulfstream pilot with over 20 years of experience reported a series of repeated UAP encounters that have increased in frequency since 2020, with sightings now occurring almost nightly, according to both pilots and air traffic controllers.

The most recent detailed event occurred while flying westbound in a Gulfstream V at 51,000 feet. The pilot and copilot observed multiple glowing orbs launching from the ground near their 1–3 o’clock position, ascending rapidly above their altitude, and then vanishing into space. Later, during approach to Van Nuys, they witnessed another luminous orb hovering above fog covered clouds around the 10–11 o’clock position before losing sight of it in cloud cover. Both events were filmed on the pilot’s iPhone.

The witness describes these orbs as cloudy/milky/translucent, often brightening when stationary and dimming when in motion. They appear to perform coordinated or fluid movements, sometimes forming geometric patterns such as triangles and rotating around one another “like dolphins playing.”

The witness and fellow pilots report these UAPs are most often seen over open water in the Atlantic, Pacific, Scotland, Iceland, Guam, and Wake Island, and only rarely over land. They exhibit rapid acceleration, extreme climb rates, and apparent interference with aircraft radar and navigation systems, which recover after the objects depart.

While flying westbound in a Gulfstream V at 51,000 feet, the pilot and copilot observed multiple glowing orbs launching from the ground and ascending above their altitude before disappearing into space. Later, during approach to Van Nuys, they saw another orb hovering above the cloud layers for several minutes before losing sight of it while descending. Both events were captured on the pilot’s iPhone.
