White high-speed tik-tak seen in night sky.

Watched a silent bright white tic-tak fly silently by at high-speed, possibly 2,000 knots, heading approximately 200° I would estimate the altitude to be 6,000 agl. The skies at the time were clear. Visibility about 50 miles. About the size of a small plane.

I’m a 10,000 hour+ commercial pilot and know this wasn’t a shooting star, known military jet, commercial drone or optical illusion. The craft had well defined borders. No sonic boom.
