Saw 3 triangular lights fly up in unison and hover for hours in the same spots. Saw the same 3 lights two nights ago and when they disappeared, they all 3 flew up at the same time and disappeared.

Buford, GA

I was driving to work one morning about 7:30 AM, driving South on I-85. I looked up in the sky toward my right and saw a Tic-Tic style of aircraff. It was flying not far from a passenger airplane. I watched for a few seconds as I was driving, and looked back at the sky and the Tic Tac had disappeared, but the plane was still flying. The next day I called my son, who had been an active Marine and asked him if we had a flying machine that had no visible means of flight. He said he didn’t know, didn’t think so. I also asked him how this cigar looking flying object could fly with no wings and no engines? He said he didn’t know. And I didn’t know either. After that I heard about the Tic Tac style of UFO’s and realized that was exactly what I had seen in the sky that day. It looked sort of white, but I realized it could have been metallic with the sun shing on it reflecting a white look to it.
