Large triangle craft flies over my house, loud

It was approximately 11:28p.m. on March 09, 2011 I was inside my house playing WII that I heard a loud engine of some kind, and it sounded like an aircraft. I walked outside didn’t see anything but heard it. I walked down my front porch and into my yard and looked over and in the distance saw and thought it was one of those dual helicopters that have two propellers and it was flying west from a south easterly direction. So I thought no big deal, and went back inside. 5 minutes later I hear d a sound of a louder lower something. So I went outside expecting another helicopter and looked up and saw a triangular craft. It had one green light on one tip, a red light on another tip, and white light on another tip, and somewhere on the outer rim was a red light which I assume was the cockpit. It flew over at 11:31 central time. It was flying low. I went back inside thinking I had seen the last of it, and it proceeded to fly over my house, an additio! nal 5 times. At one point I watched it fly up near a commercial craft high up in the sky, and it was at least 10 times bigger than the craft from my vantage point. I was on the phone with the Highway Patrol seeing if they could get a patrolman out on Hwy 72 to see this thing. The last time I saw it it was going back east and following a large what I thought was a helicopter with a huge red light, back towards Salem. I watched this thing for an hour. It was dark metallic, and loud
