Thanks for the post, Kered:
Several of the NUFORC reports in February, 2007, pointed to strange and unusual lights being "chased" (I'll use that word loosely here) by military Jets, on two separate air bases, in the midwest, all within hours of eachother, heading in an eastward direction. Later that evening, farther south down the Eastern coastline, a witness observed jets and unusual lights over the Atlantic Ocean heading from the North to the South. now this is difficult to understand without graphics, which are posted in my journal, but it all corroborates. The Atlantic Ocean is to the east, of course. Did I mention, all these UFO reports occurred within hours of eachother?
This is significant to your point, because all of this was happening during a "flap" of sorts, of black triangles and rectangles, over the midwest US in 02-07. So, what I'm saying (in a rather wordy and lengthy fashion, sorry...) Is that black triangles are definitely associated with airbases. I don't know what that means, exactly. Said another way, that could mean a great many things.
As to your observation of the lights, I have a couple comments. First, one of the Shiloh police officers described the lights in such a great way, in that they shimmered like glass. Again, there's a link in my journal to the actual quote (don't feel like looking it up), but it fits well with your description in many ways...You are both attempting to describe something very hard to comprehend. Grabbing at adjectives, grasping for concepts to fit the observations. I love it. There's no one, right description. They're all meaningful in trying to understand these lights.
In addition, I'll make one more observation: Black Triangle sightings happen, exactly like yours: Over populated areas, following interstates, appearing somewhat ambivelant about being seen and/or noticed. It's hard to imagine these things drifting around up there without the rest of us noticing, but apparently, they do. Some of us notice. So, that you saw a black triangle near an airport means it's either a misidentified airplane, or you really did see a black triangle. You'll probably post back saying, it absolutely was not an airplane, right? Please do. That would be a good point to clarify. That would mean it's a black triangle? If so, then it fits. Its not hiding. It's deploying itself in an "open, brazen" way.
Okay, well one more point: I've also seen different descriptions on the matrix of the lights. Describing them as running lights, reminds me of Shiloh.
Sincerely, Tom

I agree with the sentiments made concerning the behavior of BT's. I have seen what I beleive may be a BT at night (near a major airport here in theUK)but only because of it's "running lights".Quite an unusual but in my moribund existance exicting experiance!
Being something of a Techi nerd I fixiated on what these "running lights" could be, one idea I'd like to share is that it could be one moving (rotating?)source of light as it appears behind some kind of venting ducts (from my perspective), this would fit neatly into the description I've seen found of the TR-3B, "astra" aircraft. In my sighting the lights were "running" left to right with the craft in a forward direction, this should mean the rotation of this source of light is actually anti-clockwise unless I'm seeing some kind of "wagon wheel" strobe effect ? and confirmed my theory and brought some closure to the experiance.
However the behaviour of these aircraft as in my case is very strange, why be seen at a major airport (although closed due to fog at the time) built up area ? now I know psychological wargames are a well attested form of covert operations but this seems quite arbitary. I've also noticed a trend in the posts concerning BT's accounts one is where witnesses notice "running lights" and one where they do not, are there perhaps 2 types of BT designs, ours and "theirs"? I would guess that the craft I saw or at least the lenghth of the running lights was 100 ft -150ft while accounts of BT's (belgium phoenix lights) displaying 3 white & one middle red light configuration, which I did not see perhaps becasue I was seeing the craft side on? are the size of football fields.
