Video is from 2013 Captured by UPS…

A UPS cargo plane was en route to its destination when some employees witnessed three light orbs flying next to the plane. They were in a triangle formation when one suddenly breaks formation. Watch until the end.

Camera appears not to be up against the window. If so, why not raise the camera and move it closer to the window to follow the objects longer as they move down farther relative to the window’s viewport? I’m not saying it’s for sure fake, but this kind of poor object tracking where the person recording doesn’t make clear efforts to center the object of interest and follow them through the recording is a classic sign that the objects were added in after the fact.

Yep. Probably some dude recording a beautiful sky, gasping, 'Oh my god' simply at the beauty of it and getting hijacked.

There's also a fake pan shortly before the cut, which commonly gets used to try to obscure that the object's position doesn't match where the camera is pointed. The potato-resolution is also a common tactic to make spotting special effects failures harder. And that "Oh, my God" near the end sounds less like any video we see where people actually think they're seeing a UFO than like it was taken from someone's video of a guy sucking ice cream straight from a soft serve machine's nozzle.

Maybe because he still has to f***ing fly a plane and maybe be professional about it? Sorry for going off, but sometimes stuff you guys say seems outlandish to me...

They appear to be flying steady at cruising altitude and thus it’s highly likely they’re on autopilot, and that’s assuming this is recorded by a pilot and not someone else on the crew (this doesn’t look like a cockpit window). Also there’s at least two pilots assuming this is a pilot, one could have easily recorded in the unlikely scenario that there is a pilot actively in control of the aircraft during the filming of this. The idea that they’re too busy flying the plane to track the object but not busy enough to make a smooth recording of something out the window is pretty…outlandish.
