I was looking for the location of the same landmark, checking every plausible spot that could be seen from the presumed flight track in the next few minutes after the last identified landmark in my previous post. I have come across the above spot...
Agree. The camera can be readily turned forward or backward, and, on the half empty flight like this, relocated to another window.
I have had a hobby dated from about the same year as this video. I took zoomed photos of the ground to identify...
I think the images of Corfu Airport are pointing rearwards behind the wing, rather than forwards towards the engine nacelle and leading edge, which is why it appears after the Albanian coastline. I haven't seen anything that suggests the video...
Which (unless I am mistaken and something weird is happening with zoom levels) means that the video is not in chronological order. We see the Albanian coast, seemingly from a point above Corfu, and then some mainland mountains, before we see a...
Looks like this was the route for most of the flight....
Assuming the plane followed standard flight waypoints, we can work them out and produce a Google Earth KML file from https://skyvector.com/
Route: DINOB KRK G12 YNN MIK ODIKO M987...
Not if I am reading the OP correctly, and the shot of the cabin monitor, showing a position over the Ionian Sea was at 11.15am, and the "UFO" was half an hour later, at 11.45am.
If this was 11.15am:
then half an hour later the plane would be...
This is an out of focus sky lantern.
A defocused aperture-shaped highlight. Not primarily a diffraction effect.
The lantern is, more or less, a point source. The image is badly out of focus. The lens maps the light from a point source into a...
I'm not sure much can be done with this, as it's nearly 20 years old. Even if one wanted to try and replicate it, how? These old cameras can be found for $50-$150 here in the US. While this particular model was introduced in 2005, the underlying...
