Looked like an airliner (but too many lights), banking then dropping down ( about 1 mile out).

What I could see clearly were three brilliant white circular disc shaped lights about 4' in diameter forming an equilateral triangle about 4'-6' apart 2 leading and 1 trailing center. A single bright red circular disc of lights approximate 3' in diameter located in the center of the 3 white lights. View full report

cigar shaped just hovering there - pinpoint lights alongside of it enough to show that it was a cigar shaped. At the ends of the cigar shaped object there were slightly larger red lights. It never moved, made noise, it just hung in there the whole time I watched it. Then suddenly it just took off upright toward the sky so fast and but it seemed like it just disappeared as it zoomed off. View full report
