Triangular Object, Fast blinking lights, Austin, TX 23:50 03-29-05

Outside my home haveing a smoke, Facing west.

I very familiar with aircraft and navigational lighting. I used to pilot UAV planes at night, this was done with the navigational lights.

I see alot of planes in my area, So when I first saw the lights I didn't really pay to close attention. Well that changed when the lights started blinking like strobes.

I was still thinking it was a plane due to the lights being red, blue and white. Then craft started making some manuvers that where not normal, not even for an arobatic pilot. This lasted for about 5min, the object apperaed to have a triangular shape. The lighs continuned to flash rapidly, same colors but multiples of each color not normal.

The flight patern seem to be up and down and continued till it was out of site.
