NUFORC Sighting 156622

Occurred: 2020-05-20 19:00 Local
Reported: 2020-05-21 18:53 Pacific
Duration: 45 minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: West Sacramento, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle

Shiny triangle the size of a jet aircraft flew from cloud to cloud; watched for 45 minutes by retired Park Ranger and 2 others.

My husband's friend was with his granddaughter and her boyfriend flying his drone when they saw a triangular shaped craft in the clouds at a very high altitude; higher than normal planes fly while approaching Sacramento Airport in the area. It was reflecting the sun as it flew from cloud to cloud in a circular pattern. They watched it with binoculars for about 45 minutes and could tell it was not a jet although it was about the same size. I jokingly asked him if he experienced any missing time and he said no. Altitude was much higher than the drone's 1000 feet. I have urged our friend to make his own report; I'm a MUFON member and this sighting was too good not to report second hand.
