Three triangular craft visible for 5 min near I 540 on 2/27/2013

I saw three triangular craft over I-540 over a large patch of trees. I was at stop sign juncture of Macon Road and Ray Road. I thought at first it had to be three military planes flying in perfect formation and i was amazed at the slow speed and exact eqiudistance and how the planes maintained that exact distance but were also able to stay in air at such slow speed. I realized they were only at most 2 to 3 miles from rdu airport and i decided to try to take a closer look. There were 3 lights on each craft. Once i pulled over and looked back either the trees obscured my view or they took off. I never saw side view or any view other than complete triangle appearance which was weird.
