observed Angel Hair type UFO

On or about October 11, 2004 at 2 pm I noticed a UFO flying over head about 30,000 feet AGL above my avocado orchard. It was flying north at around 200 to 300 mph in a northerly direction which stayed in view for less than a minute. A 747 was flying near by, leaving a long contrail and heading south parallel to the UFO. The UFO didn’t make any sound as it passed over. The UFO was round and bright and gleamed like the suns rays were bouncing off of it. As it flew over I could see that some type of white mass was protruding from all around the UFO in a clockwise position at a very slow spin compared to its speed. The UFO was too high to determine if it was shedding the white material or not. It was hard to believe what I saw until I got my October issue of UFO magazine a few days after the sighting. On page 63 Ann Druffel tells about Angel Hair and Fluorescence.

This I believe is what I saw in the sky that day.
