Duration: 2 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Highland Park, IL, USA

Shape: Light

When I got off the highway 294 on Lake Cook road I noticed 5 lights. At first I thought it was a one group, but very soon I realized that only one is a plane. It had distinct lights and strobe lights were blinking.

The rest was flying at 300-400 KTS in a formation, all in red lights. Not in a particular order, however they proceeded in one direction. Objects did not have any strobe lights.

I thought, maybe F-16 using after burners, but there wasn't jet engine noise at all.
