NUFORC Sighting 42565

Occurred: 2003-06-14 21:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2005-02-28 09:43 Pacific
Duration: 1 minute
No of observers: 2

Location: Wilmington, NC, USA

Shape: Light

Two bright lights came into view as we were sitting on our back porch. They appeared to be fairly far away - like bright stars. No sound.

They hovered side by side for a few seconds. Then one of them quickly moved horizontally - and then shot straight up into the sky and disappeared (an L-shaped path).

The other followed the first one's path exactly and also disappeared.

We are near a Naval base.

Can planes do this?
