“An unidentified object with green lights passed 2 to 3,000 feet above us. Then it disappeared all of a sudden. We are guessing that it was a UFO,” the two pilots told the Air Traffic Control Center at Istanbul’s Atatürk Airport.
Green flashes and green rays are optical phenomena that sometimes occur right after sunset or right before sunrise. When the conditions are right, a green spot is visible above the upper rim of the disk of the sun. The green appearance usually lasts for no more than a second or two. Rarely, the green flash can resemble a green ray shooting up from the sunset (or sunrise) point.

Not to discredit this post as I am a advocate of the unknown and wish to know more.
I did find once however about spposdly green flash that can be seen when the sun reaches a certain point you can see a green type light, not sure if it is a flash like light but maybe it is natural occurrence.

Sounds like you and the flight was talking about day however not sunset or sunrise.
