NUFORC Sighting 149151

Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Newburgh, NY, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

Driving west on I-84 I drove adjacent and under a massive aircraft with 3 white lights and a central red light.

I was driving west bound on I-84, a few miles from the Hudson River crossing bridge into Newburgh NY and I noticed a massive (maybe 500ft) aerial vehicle, that had three white lights on the corners and an offset central red light. The lights were a bit brighter than an airplanes and as I drove past it towards the east, it seemed to be gliding, fairly slowly towards the west along I-84 on the westbound side. As my car was even with it I could see the underside of the craft and realized that it wasn’t a typical airplane, but my first impression was that it was a dark metal and looked like a “mother ship”. It was fairly low in altitude (I approximate less than 800ft AGL, using my skills as an FAA licensed UAV Pilot). After passing the craft, I was searching in my side view mirror for it, but couldn’t find it again.
