Drones "Spying" on New Jersey.

Am I wrong to conclude that you're semi-intelligent?

No - sadly you can't. I also make wild assumptions when I see things I don't understand. But fortunately my friends will calmly correct my misguided adventures and life goes on. If they don't make the correction, in time I usually ferret out the facts... but during the find-a-solution phase, all bets are off.

Keep in mind with all videos and images and their lack of quality.

Most people are using cell phones with small sensors. They take goo to incredible images and video in good lighting.

People are trying to take an image of a moving object in a black background at night, that has lights on it.

Your phone wants to bump up ISO making it grainy.
The lights on the UAP now make it hard to see detail on the UAP body.

Images will be incredibly tough.


But there are plenty of reliable sources from eyes on these UAP that can't be easily discounted. These range from military personell, police officers, drone pilots, pilots, etc. Ocean County Sheriff chased them and the USCG also saw them.

I know in today's age we need to see images and video, but keep in mind how hard the target is to photo or record on a cell phone.

For me, I was absolutely skeptical about these UAP.
A police sergeant in our drone program saw one with the moon in the the background and was able to say it was 100% a VTOL type drone, 2 to 3 blocks away and under 200 ft AGL.

I personally saw unexplained lights to the north of me that did not line up with any aircraft transmitting on ADSB and were flying very low at the same time he saw the drone. Another sergeant to the north of that area saw the same lights which were south of him.

I saw those lights in that general vicinity Thursday, Friday and Saturday night 6PM to 8 PM.

Its too far from me to say anything other than, I saw lights from something flying, low to the north of me. They flew back and forth, were very low and did not correspond to any aircraft on Flight Radar 24 or ADBS Xchange. For me the event that changed my view is the sergeant's personal sighting against the moon of a drone.

Unfortunately most people will have to go by other's accounts, most of the time stangers. I too would be skeptical.

How did @Berf's honest, civil attempt to back up his POV justify this sort of schoolyard garbage?

How about if he actually read the story he posted on his "civil attempt" ??

Who cares if drones are flying over NJ at night? If the officials that are in charge say that they are aware of any activity. And they say that they are not concerned. Then, by extension, I am not concerned.

I don't need others to know what I'm doing at every given minute when I'm operating UAS. So, in turn, I don't need to know what others are doing.
By all means, stress yourself out if you need to for some reason.

Many reports are manned aircraft, and some are even stars according to some debunkers. Others are drones that are apparently of no concern according to the authorities. So, you have to decide if the authorities are lying, or, the activity is actually of no concern. I grant you, lying is not in short supply these days!

Not stressed out at all. Just asking you to engage the community in a more civil manner, and abandon the name-calling.

That's not possible?

 

[Dave Pitman]

abandon the name-calling.

Relating behavior to that of "chicken little" is probably more civil and kind than asking them to be less hysterical, for example.

Is it wrong to find humor in knowing that the people who act like they're tough are the ones most afraid?

I'll never understand these wasteful meme or whatever posts of images and videos that are somehow supposed to convey meaning or be some form of communication. Can anyone translate this for me?
