Two pilots were caught during an interesting exchange after a reported UFO sightings over Irish skies occurred in the early hours this morning.
UAP was spotted over Irish airspace shortly after midnight on Wednesday (May 29), with the sighting reported to air traffic control.
Some of the exchanges between the pilots and ATC were shared online by online aviation journalist Shaun Dunne – Shaun’s Aviation on Twitter (X) – with the sighting taking place towards Northern Ireland/Scotland.
The pilot described seeing the UFO as ‘an object’ [that was] there and then it went,” he added at air traffic control “it was almost like it was standing still, but it happened very quickly.”
While the exact description of the object was now known, Shaun’s Aviation managed to catch a witty exchange between two pilots – with one saying: ‘I’ve never seen anything so amazing’, prompting another pilot to say: ‘ You clearly didn’t see my landings.’
The first pilot quickly replied, “You didn’t see mine either,” before both planes continued to their destinations after the UFO sighting.
