The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating after a business airline pilot reported seeing an object that resembled a jet pack close to LAX.
The sighting occurred round 2:45 p.m. Thursday about 15 miles east of the airport.
It’s not the primary time the FAA has been alerted about attainable jet pack sightings close to LAX. A number of sightings have been reported since October 2020 and there have been continued reported sightings each few months.
The FAA has labored with the FBI to analyze every jet pack sighting, and thus far none, together with Thursday’s reported sighting, have been verified. Actually, again in November 2021, the Los Angeles Police Division launched video of some unusual trying balloons that they theorized may very well be chargeable for the jet pack studies.
The video, captured someday in November 2020, reveals a skeleton-like balloon, presumably an inflatable Jack Skellington from the “Nightmare Earlier than Christmas” movie.
It stays unclear at the moment what the reported jet pack sightings truly are, however some consultants have stated it’s unlikely to be an individual as a result of excessive altitude of the sightings. One other idea that has been floated, apart from balloons, a high-powered drone with a model hooked up.
Maybe we’ll by no means know for certain what’s behind the jet pack sightings at LAX, but it surely’s at all times enjoyable to theorize.
