While this phenomenon was moving, they saw a triangular shape with blinking green and red lights. No noise was heard, and the estimated speed was 80 to 100 km/h. During the investigation, it was established that training flights of 25 minutes each, in the same area, had taken place with a CESSNA type 150 aircraft.
