Reported: 2019-08-21 07:28 Pacific
Duration: <1 minute
No of observers: 1

Location: Tonkawa, OK, USA

Shape: Cylinder


Cylindrical object moving against the wind, no visible control surfaces

Monday August 19. Around 4:35 p.m.

Saw a cylindrical object just east of Tonkawa, OK flying north to south. Object appeared to be like an aircraft fuselage but without wings or tail fin.

As I observed the object move to the south I got a view down it as well, still showing no wings. The object was grey; a little reflectivity but not much. Altitude would be a guess but I’d say under 10k ft. Speeds appeared like an airliner would have.

No contrail, no noise. Could have been a balloon but it would have been trucking it on a calm wind day. Winds were from the south as well.
