"Ghost Rocket?" Strange Object Seen Over New Mexico Wasn't the First

   ...   
   On Sun afternoon at approximately 1:19 PM ST, pilots aboard AAL   
   Flight 2292 were overheard asking air traffic controllers at   
   Albuquerque Center whether they had "any targets up here?  We just had   
   something go right over the top of us."   
      
   "I hate to say this, but it looked like a long cylindrical object that   
   almost looked like a cruise missile type of thing," one of the pilots   
   stated, "moving really fast right over the top of us."   
      
   The transmission was overheard by veteran photojournalist Steve   
   Douglass, an investigative journalist and technologies expert who has   
   for years operated as a self-described "Stealth Chaser" in his spare   
   time, searching for possible advanced classified aircraft. The story   
   was covered by Tyler Rogoway at The Warzone, who wrote that he is   
   currently awaiting further details about the incident from the FAA.   
      
   Over the years, a surprising number of incidents involving   
   unidentified missile-like objects, primarily reported by pilots and   
   aviation professionals, have surfaced. Arguably, one of the most   
   striking incidents of this variety occurred in March, 1997 near Snow   
   Hill, Maryland. The incident involved the flight crew of a DC-9 who,   
   along with other traffic flying in the area at that time, observed a   
   missile-like object ascending through the sky near them.   
      
   The Captain and First Officer aboard the DC-9 provided the primary   
   report of the incident, which they described as "a rocket or missile   
   climbing through our altitude off our left wing." The crew aboard the   
   aircraft said they watched this object for close to half a minute,   
   which produced a light bluish exhaust trail as it passed them. The   
   object was close enough that the plume it produced, according to the   
   Captain, covered a third of the visible area out his window cockpit window.   
      
   "The object was moving extremely fast, was highly visible, and was   
   sighted by other aircraft," the officer's report later detailed, which   
   he initially filed with the nearby New York Air Route Traffic Control   
   Center as he witnessed it. The Captain described the incident as "a   
   very serious matter that needs immediate attention."   
      
   The circumstances of this incident were similar to another case that   
   occurred 2 years earlier in 1995. ...
