I didn't see the lights but am curious as to what they are now that I'm reading the news. Any insight?

Well I opened up the article (it was kinda click bait on their website) I was thinking it was going to be more of the mysterious loud booms that people heard a few weeks ago. But this is pretty interesting and I am quite curious.

Interesting. One time in my life I saw what I considered to be a UFO and it was also a line (actually a "V") of red lights. It was a uniform V that got more narrow as it flew over head, just like if a plane were folding it's wings in to hug against the fuselage or something. No sound, didn't seem high altitude, lights too far apart to be a fighter jet, but too close, and too uniform, to be different aircrafts. Over Golden, heading East, and about 15 years ago on Christmas Eve.

Supposedly it's a few .mil jets practicing. So far no one (according to the media) has said they heard jets flying overhead, just the lights.

I know it's far fetched but I like to think that Nellis AFB and/or Area 51 are testing some interesting new and secret aircraft. I remember seeing weird flying opjects/lights in different patterns and turning dramatically when I was a kid and would always think the military is testing something cool.

"That was a UFO, beamin' back at ya. Me and Eric Tysman was down in Mexico two weeks ago, we seen 40 of 'em flyin' in formation. They've got bases all over the world now, y'know. They've been comin' here ever since 1946, when the scientists first started bouncin' radar beams off of the moon, and they have been livin' and workin' among us in vast quantities ever since. The government knows all about 'em....."

That was also what I suspected at the time.

Based on what I see in some of the videos, they look like aircraft following in a line. Wouldn't surprise me if they were military due to their proximity to each other.

Maybe some new kind of stealth aircraft going to pay North Korea a visit. [Coffee]

What if they WERE US AF but some kind of new stealth "spooky", and they had so many of them to intercept all communications in the Denver area to unveil the posters in this thread...

GAAAAAAH

Kay: Damn, what a gullible breed... I'm serious, fellas, you're lucky to be alive after a blast like that.
INS Agent Janus: What blast?
Kay: Underground gas main, genius! You fellas need to exercise a lot more caution before discharging your firearms, I'll tell you that much right now. Especially you.

12 aircraft for HALO? That’s a lot of jumpers. Train up for N Korea?

I was thinking it was a lot of aircraft, but I was never HALO certified so I don't know.

12 aircraft doing HALO makes no sense. HALO is for covert insertions and there's nothing covert about 12 C-17's.

May be that HALO was part of the operation (like scouts or pathfinders HALO'ing in to set up the DZ) but the rest of the drop was S/L (Static Line.)

HALO sounds sexy and cool like a video game (you know, like HALO :rolleyes: ) but any mass airborne insertion would be done with S/L jumpers. The person reporting it simply might have chosen to ignore the S/L part because nobody ever created a video game called "Static Line." ;)

Possibly an EDRE (Emergency Deployment Readiness Excercise) for the 82nd?

I was never in the 'Deuce but my understanding is that the "Division Ready Brigade" had to be on 12 hour standby and that sometimes they would alert the standby unit, have them draw weapons and equipment, load onto aircraft and fly to a location, jump in and practice seizing an airfield or something similar. They'd fly to places like Eglin AFB in FL, Fort Polk, LA, or sometimes even all the way across the country to the NTC at Ft Irwin, CA., jump in, do the excercise for a few days and then fly back.

Right, my thoughts too. When we lived in the neighborhood just south of the airport/Peterson, I could hear those 17's warming up on the tarmac. Loud. Very, very loud. Covert status = not.

The updated article said "The large aircraft went cross-country to Nevada for a training exercise involving HALO drop--high altitude military parachuting. The exercise was done in coordination with multiple air military installations and groups, including the 82nd Airborne."

So the large number of aircraft was needed for a large training exercise involving multiple bases and groups. It just said HALO was involved, not that the entire exercise was HALO -- and THAT assumes the reporting on the webpage is accurate. I don't think KDVR is MSNBC or CNN (with their deliberately false reporting) but my experience has been that reporters and copy editors frequently get details (sometimes even major points) wrong even when they have the best intentions.
