Am I Losing it?

Featured Replies

Am flying over St Lawrence seaway eastbound of CYMX at 41,000 ft. Just seen what looked like a satellite/meteorite re-entry directly ahead of aircraft at elevation of + 2 to +5 degrees. Three white irregular fireballs moving left to right, very fast, trailing about 5 - 8 degrees. Duration about 1.5 seconds +/-.

Does our scenery (P3Dv4.5) have these programmed in? Never seen anything like this before except in real life.

Or am I losing it?  😲

They are visible in 4.5 yes, very random though

Thank you for that - I wasn't hallucinating, then!

I haven't seen meteorites since the days of FSX, but then I don't fly much at night.  I'm glad to see they're still around.

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

I saw three meteors at dawn the other day when preparing to depart EGPL Benbecula in the Western Isles, Scotland (P3Dv4.5HF2).

Sceenshots would be helpful.  Otherwise I'm leaning to you're losing it.🤣🤣
