Daytime sighting of three objects, in formation, moving across the sky, VERY VERY high compared to other aircraft. No noises at all.

AT dusk, approximately 5:50 PM, I was in the front yard, letting my dog snoop. I was therefore wasting time, As I happened to look up, I saw what I originally thought were three helicopters approaching from the west. I kept waiting for them to get closer and bigger, but even though they finally flew over, they never got bigger, I never hard any sounds, and they were MUCH higher than jetliners flying over either, into or out of the airport. And even as they leave the airport, they are much higher than a helicopter. When an actual helicopter did actually fly over, then is when I realized these three items were WAY too high to be helicopters, as I had originaly wondered about. One item, the front one, looked as if maybe it was a large rectangle item, and did turn 90 degrees a number of times. Their fomation stayed consitent. In the past, others have reported the "sighting" over Phoenix at night, and the lights. This time, there were no lights, but the sun had not yet gone down.

I am a man, aged 64, sane, and have never before believed I've ever witnessed UFO's. This sighting was way too weird, and I can be certain they were not normal aircraft. Even very high aircraft, you hear some noise, not this time, and no vapor trails. Movement across the sky was steady, and rather slow.
