"The FAA ran radar replays of a large area west of Los Angeles based on media reports of the possible missile launch at approximately 5 p.m. (PT) on Monday. The radar replays did not reveal any fast moving, unidentified targets in that area," said FAA spokesman Ian Gregor. "The FAA did not receive reports ... of unusual sightings from pilots who were flying in the area on Monday afternoon.
"The FAA did not approve any commercial space launches around the area Monday," he added.

This is how hysteria works.
So, it's a plane after all? I have to tell you, the video had me. I thought for sure it was a rocket of some sort, due to what looked like flame coming out of it. Ah well. Fun ride. Props to the weatherman.

Has anyone seen the whole unedited video taken from the news helicopter? Up until now they've only shown little snippets. I'd sure would like to see the whole thing from start to finish. I'll bet it would answer a lot of if not all the questions as to what this thing is.
OMG, we know what it is, they are even stating it was a missile launch. There is no debate as to the what, only the who and why. AGAIN: The pentagon has confirmed it was a missile/rocket launch.

It looks like a plane to me. I find it bizarre that anybody would think otherwise. I have seen lots of contrails at sunset that look like that.
Are you wearing a black suit and shades at the moment? Are you sure it's not Venus or swamp gas, the suits around this way must have read another memo, cos we got swamp gas from Venus - we all gotta be reading from the same song sheet on this sorta thing bruv,.
That plane is shifting man lol, I mean seriously the camera is quite a distance away and you can see that 'plane' moving at one heck of a pace - dude it's a missile of some sort, no 2 ways about it, if it was a contrail from a plane don't you think the Pentagon news office would be spending all their efforts today making a whole lotta news reads look very very stupid?edit on 9/11/2010 by Now_Then because: (no reason given)

An airplane did not take off 20 miles from Catalina.
An airplane flew across the Pacific and appeared over the horizon.
It's called perspective.
You guys are going to need loads of kitchen towel to wipe the egg of your faces. Its a PLANE. You should look up more then you would have seen this sort of effect before. I do and I have. As I said I bet 5000 ats points its a plane.

Look, it's all over the news. If it was a plane, we would know it by now. The radar didn't show anything, and no one knows what it is (supposedly).
So tell me, with all the measures to protect US air space since 9/11, how could a plane creating so much confusion NOT be identified by now.
Stop it now!
