I use to see this a lot when I observed outside San Diego. If the plane is coming towards you, it will appear motionless. If it is far away, you won't hear anything. George Zay >>"In more than 40 years of looking at the sky, I've never seen anything like it," << I always get a kick when people express their sky observing experience this way. Does he mean he's been looking up for 40 continuous years? Or perhaps mean he first looked up at the sky 40 years ago and maybe looked up once each year since? I wonder how many clear moonless nights there are each year over England?
