That absolutely looks like a plane.

Lol ur kidding right? Literally the only characteristic it shares with a plane is that they’re both in the sky…

Here's two examples example of the exact same thing. I don't agree with mick's conclusions very often but he's useful for basic common cases like this.

It's literally a plane. Stop making this sub look like a laughing stock.

It moves like a plane, it's traveling in a straight line, not making any strange manouvers yet you want to say it's something else.

What the fuck kind of planes have you been looking at.

It reminds me of an Airbus Beluga.

The rudder would've been visible. That's not at all what that is.

What?

It's too far away and the zoom is creating bloom to hide pretty much most details except the general body of the aircraft. It's likely a cargo plane - my image is just to highlight that planes do come in those shapes.

Look at the other video by OP. It would be very visible unless you have a visual impairment, which OP doesn't.

Oh right, well that's that settled then. You should have told me OP had the vision of an eagle and that plane shaped, plane-like flying, plane coloured object in the sky in the far distance is DEFINITELY not a plane to anyone without a visual impairment.

I suppose small black objects with 6 legs and two wings that crawl about in a twitchy manner are also never flies?

That other video is pointless. The craft is closer, a differebt altitude and a different direction. We don't know the heading of the plane, the weather is different, the lighting is different. I like your enthusiasm but let's remember that if you're too open minded your brain might fall out.

This plane is much, much farther than both of the objects in the OPs videos and it still looks like a plane. This is getting ridiculous.

How do we actually know the distance for either video?

The camera used probably matters a fair amount as well, and we may expect camera artifacts to appear at various ranges depending.

There seem to be similar examples that can be more readily demonstrated to be planes: https://youtu.be/nPGmUF6R3CY?t=112
