Further Description of Sighting: The object was tailing a passenger Jet. The jet banked left toward Newcastle airport (for landing) the object then veered right and crossed the sky east toward the sea at immense speed (I’ve never seen an aircraft move at this rate) There was no noise from this (only from the passenger Jet) no contrails, nothing. in a matter of a few seconds it vanished into the clouds.
