Look what I found flying almost over my home town

38*30*26.29N   89*06*32.83 W

Ever see an airliner have a rainbow reflection?

It's an artifact of the fast moving object.

Hijack/Offshoot Alert!

Speaking of Google Earth,

Last year I made a KMZ file that shows where 200+ of my Anchorage Alaska high school classmates from 1984 now live.  We’ve spread out throughout Alaska and the US.  We even have classmates in Norway, Sweden, Singapore and Cananada.  It’s kind of a cool sociology experiment.  Here’s the download page:

I also made one of the 28 places that I have lived in: Alaska, Oregon, Hawaii, Colorado and Ohio.  Here’s the download page:

I'd just say it's 2 swa planes on the same airway at different altitudes going the same direction on their way to Chicago MDW.

J71 runs N/S right there past the ENL VOR.  There are the blue and orange schemes so you know it's two separate jets.  Here's a high-altitude chart overlay over the area.

All of the mid-air shots of high-speed aircraft have this artifact.  It is not two planes flying the same VOR.

There's one in Hermann, Missouri that I'm too lazy to look up right now.  Was a wtf moment when I first saw it though.

I don’t know.  Look at the direction of the shadows from the row of trees; it’s the same direction as the rainbow plane above the real one…  Also look at how the stripes on the farmland cut through the plane, especially through the tail.  I think it’s a shadow on LSD.
