Pilot witness in Pyr�n�es-Atlantiques, France
The witness observes an airplane making a U-turn in mid-sky, followed very closely by an object positioned between its left wing and its tail assembly.
Air traffic control was consulted on this case: it is indeed an airplane that the witness observed, but a particular airplane, since it is an Airbus A350 from Airbus Industrie, on a test or demonstration flight, following an atypical trajectory: two loops over the Pyrenees until its landing in Toulouse at 12:50. It is noted that Airbus is preparing the delivery of its first A350 in the coming month. The point observed by the witness is a smaller airplane, a Corvette, carrying out in-flight filming (information obtained from Airbus Industrie). It is noted that the position of this escort, to the south of the Airbus, is well placed relative to the sun for photo and video filming.
At the time of the observation, the airplane is flying at around 10,000 meters altitude; the aircraft escorting it appears to the witness very close to the Airbus, but it is probably significantly higher than the airplane, in order to see it from above. GEIPAN classifies this case as A: certain observation of a large-capacity airplane on a test or demonstration flight, accompanied by a light airplane carrying out filming.

Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.
If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
Nothing is tracked back to you and nothing is sent on your behalf. The link is just the page you are reading.
