Flight of 9 to 12 amberish lights traveling south to north in a 3 chevron formation with wandering companions.

I am a Security Systems Sales Engineer. I design surveillance, access, and intrusion detection systems. I have been a security professional for 13 years. Before that I had a number of experiences. One of witch was being in Tehran in 1976. This was totally different.

Standing on Hempsted Hill, Patterson Park I was looking for Taurus on an unusually clear night. As I found Orion and started to look north a flight of lights entered from my left.

Three perfect chevrons of 3 lights each and some meandering, looping lights, maybe 3 or 4 just looked loose, unco-ordinated.

I thought it might be some sort of reflection but off my glasses, but I had to swivel my head to watch, and they maintained a straight line of flight, as I observed them.

Freaky, It's rare I see something that I cannot explain.

Contact me anytime.
