Observer
NameBrooke C
Experience Level1/5
RemarksI distinctly remember thinking to myself “that airplane is going way to fast”. Moments later I spotted an airplane in the sky and realized this was 100% not a plane. This object was going so fast it made the plane seem like it wasn’t moving at all. I was going south on 170 and I thought the object was going to hit downtown St. Louis by the direction it was heading.
