Watch this. This is an interview with the "tic tac" UFO pilot. There is lots of detail in that video and it is very interesting. So much more information than what you get from the MSM five minute short coverage. This will answer your question.

Interesting that both Fravor and Corbell suddenly believe the Mexican Air Force IR junk from 2004 (debunked a generation ago) is a genuine video of a UFO rather than what it actually was - eleven oil platform burn-off flares that were NOT moving
(rather the plane was encircling them - obvious from the footage itself).

Agreed.

We need to quit living in denial and except we're not alone. We don't need to search mars for life it came to us.
He's changed his story now, listen to him on the Joe Rogan interview I posted in my thread:

The Navy pilot explains in the video that at one point the 'tic tac' left the field of view in less than a second.....the field of view was at least 50 MILES.....in less than a second.
So we finally get a good video along with a credible witness explaining how it's not ours and you guys are like..."oh its ours". I think I'll take the word of the experts over you guys.

Here is a quote from David Fravor from time 12:30 in the Joe Rogan episode youtube video embedded in the OP when he's making his final approach and closing in on what he sees:
"as I'm pulling up it's kinda starting to cross my nose and it starts to accelerate, and within less than a second as I start to pull right on to it and it crosses right in front of me it just goes "poof" and it was gone."
The "poof" is mimed with a magicians hand motion suggesting an object magically disappearing.
But if you don't think that means "disappeared", Fravor says about the same "poof" thing again, then gives a second-hand account that the pilot in the other aircraft who was observing events below from a position above at 20,000 feet said "it just disappeared" at 17:10 in this video:
So I think why he might have previously suggested it left at high speed is that if he saw it one second but not one second later, then his mind might have assumed it flew off faster than he could see it, but in this description he doesn't really say he can see it fly off. The unofficial "official" report George Knapp obtained, without attributing any quote to any of the pilots it says the tic tac left the area at supersonic speeds, so I can see where people might get the idea that it flew off at high speed, but apparently there was some chatter about this not agreeing with radar data that never saw the object leave that point. So I speculate Fravor has more recently been telling a story more compatible with the radar data, which may be the way he actually remembers it.
There may be a tendency for the mind to trick us into thinking an object must have flown off at high speed when we see it disappear. I've seen this in another video of a pilot who saw a light disappear and he said that it flew off really fast. The reason I know it didn't fly off really fast like the pilot said is that he was looking at a flare tied to a balloon and the flare just burned out, but I bring this up to illustrate how the mind works. If someone sees an object vanish, they may think more in terms of it flying off than of actually vanishing, even if it actually vanished as when the flare burned out.

First contact? They don't want to have any contact with a species that murders its own children. Destroys its habitat. Makes wars, has massive crime, oppression, and starvation and does nothing about it.
Fravor doesn't know what he saw, so interviewing him won't help us get to the bottom of it.

No, at that speed it is alien.
Sounds like you are searching for excuses. The difference between "puff" and "less than a second" is negligible. Not a difference at all, except in spelling. These UFO's, and specifically saucers, have been doing this disappearing act since the 1940's.
But even though I disagree with you, I would like to see you interview Fravor on film and get to the bottom of the details of this whole incident. Maybe ATS management can sponsor an interview between the two of you.

No there is testimony from navy pilots seeing things that defy all known psychics. They don't pick idiots to be navy pilots. It's not just one or two pilots seeing these things. The navy is encountering these things all the time. These things are under intelligent control and not earthly.

I have seen the videos and heard the testimonies. Chances are it's hidden technology utilising drones or some such.
I have probably watched and read every available piece of information on UFO's over the years.
Drones that can travel at 5000mph and make a 90 degree turn? Or travel from below the ocean surface and up into space in seconds?
No sir, I think the pilots would know about those.

You have? So you think we have had this anti gravity wingless tech since the 1940's? Where is the exhaust plume? Oh that's right, there is none! Please explain how you think that thing is propelling itself. (The Navy "Tic Tac" UFO video)
he isnt..thinking. It's a just a token identification, one which will prevent heads from exploding. To suggest it's "our" tech would be far more unreasonable then to suggest ET.
But your average scientist is stopped at the great "it's such a long way, they cant travel here" wall of China. Insurmountable.

I am quite sure that if aliens were real and have been coming and going from here for who knows how long. Well, not only would they not be interested in communications.
But if you wanted to they could tell you when we all will go extinct, and also what you had for breakfast this morning, if they cared to that is, it would be no more harder to gauge then it would be for you to tell me what do ducks do.
And since they didn't or don't stop to say hi in there comings and goings, well that says it all. Doesn't it?
Or.
Aliens don't exist, and we are the only species out there in that ocean of stars. Or any number of other explanations. Take your pick. Its all you will get.

If they are here, they know that we know that they are here because our primitive aircraft try to chase them, we try to shoot them down so we probably seem to them to be aggressive and afraid so they just choose to play hide and seek with us .
If they are here.
And these things are from here it's not like they would show off the technology, remember when the public found out about the stealth fighter, people thought it was the latest and greatest thing but it was really technology from the 50s or 60s that they just unveiled.

If there were aliens visiting Earth and wanted to make contact they would. They wouldn't have to use light pulses and maths.
I doubt aliens are here though. Those navy videos are more than likely something we have created using advanced technology of some sort. Why, who can say?
