Two Planes Spot ‘Bright Green UFO’ Soaring Over Canada – Military Jet Ascends 1,000 Feet in Pursuit

Two pilots over Canadian airspace reported seeing a ‘bright green flying object’ that flew into a cloud and ‘disappeared’ over the eastern part of the country last month.

The incident occurred on July 30, when a Canadian military plane – flying between CFB Trenton, a military base in Ontario and Cologne, Germany – and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines flight KLM618 – traveling from Boston to Amsterdam – saw the mysterious object.

According to a post on the Canadian government’s flight incident website, there was ‘no impact to operations’ on either plane.

However, logistics expert and consultant Steffan Watkins looked at the flight data information and tweeted that the Canadian military plane, a CC-177 Globemaster III, ‘made a change in course and had climbed 1,000 ft when they reported seeing the UFO.’

‘So, I would like to know if the [Royal Canadian Air Force] pilot changed course to avoid it, changed course to see what it was, or if the swerve-like course correction was completely routine and just a coincidence,’ Watkins added.

Watkins added that the object could have been a meteor, given it took place at the early part of the Perseid meteor shower, which started July 14 and peaked earlier this week.

The government report is perhaps unsurprisingly, tagged ‘weather balloon, meteor, rocket, CIRVIS/UFO.’

‘The crew saw something in the air, and reported it to NAV Canada as per standard procedure, before carrying on with their mission without further incident,’ the spokesperson said in an email. ‘While it is not known what they saw, there was nothing to indicate that it posed any kind of security concern or posed a safety risk to the aircraft.’

The RCAF spokesperson disputed Watkins’ comments, adding that the craft did not take any evasive action and the 1,000ft climb was done ‘simply for the aircraft to reach its oceanic entry point and altitude, which are a routine aspect of trans-oceanic flights.’

A spokesman for NAV Canada, the company that operates Canada’s air traffic control, pointed DailyMail.com to the Civil Aviation Daily Occurrence Reporting System (CADORS) website.

‘This Canadian incident case is fascinating, not least for the light it sheds on how sightings are categorized not as UFOs, but as aviation occurrences,’ Nick Pope, a former employee and UFO investigator for Britain’s Ministry of Defense, told

‘Part of this stems from historical reluctance on the part of pilots – civil and military – to report UFOs,’ Pope added.

‘Instead, these objects are described in terms of unidentified aircraft or drones, as potential air safety issues. What this means is that one has to trawl through all sorts of aviation occurrence reports and then read between the lines to find details of possible UFO encounters.’

Vice News was first to report on the incident with unidentified aerial phenomena.

Though Canada’s Department of National Defense does not track UFO sightings, a department spokesperson told Vice, the US’s neighbor to the north is acutely aware of these incidents.

In April, Canada revealed dozens of UFO reports made by commercial airline pilots, kept in the CADORS database.

Two months later, DailyMail.com reported that the Canadian military has ‘dozens’ of UFO reports that date back 70 years, with some reports describing ‘bright’ objects moving at speeds twice the rate of an F-86.

In 2015, former Canadian defense minister Paul Hellyer made the wild and controversial claim that governments are hiding aliens, many of whom ‘walk among us.’

The incident over Canadian airspace comes after the US government released its report on the subject earlier this year that did little to settle the matter of what these objects are, one way or another.

The long-awaited report from the Pentagon on the subject of ‘unidentified aerial phenomenon’ (UAPs) offered no explanation for 140 of the 144 observations dating back to 2004.

The declassified June 25 report, which came from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, added that it lacks sufficient data to determine the nature of mysterious flying objects.

‘In 18 incidents, described in 21 reports, observers reported unusual UAP movement patterns or flight characteristics,’ the report reads.

‘Some UAP appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft, move against the wind, maneuver abruptly, or move at considerable speed, without discernable means of propulsion. In a small number of cases, military aircraft systems processed radio frequency (RF) energy associated with UAP sightings.

‘The UAPTF holds a small amount of data that appear to show UAP demonstrating acceleration or a degree of signature management. Additional rigorous analysis are necessary by multiple teams or groups of technical experts to determine the nature and validity of these data.

‘We are conducting further analysis to determine if breakthrough technologies were demonstrated.’

The term UFO has been more recently replaced by unidentified aerial phenomenon, especially in light of the U.S. Pentagon declassifying three videos in April 2020.
