At 5:30 it was still 42 miles west of the coastline. You were partially right. At 5:31 it was crossing Santa Catalina Island. Which is about 25 miles from Long Beach and almost due south. Airport Monitor
And who says it was leaving a contrail when I crossed the coastline?
That is the point. It magically stopped creating a contrail at 5:19 while it was at 39k ft. even though it continued to maintain 39k ft. until 5:27. The following pic will show you when the contrail stopped.
What are you talking about? Dropped by who? Do you think there is some official panel discussing this issue?
The people discussing it are the people discussing it. If you want to stick to the old worn out theory about altitude you're free to.
YOU who believes something based solely on a picture.
Video. Video vs. graph.
"You were partially right. At 5:31 it was crossing Santa Catalina Island. Which is about 25 miles from Long Beach and almost due south."
No. I'm completely right. At 5:30 (the time you referenced), it was at 33.33N 118.63W. Plot it out on Google Earth yourself. It was moving at 606MPH ground speed, which means 10 miles per minute. At 5:31 it was probably 10 miles closer to the coast and directly over Catilina Island.
"That is the point. It magically stopped creating a contrail at 5:19 while it was at 39k ft. even though it continued to maintain 39k ft. until 5:27. The following pic will show you when the contrail stopped."
That is awesome. Can I assume you now agree that the photo you reference is of the object Leyvas was filming? And at 5:23:47 (the last image in the sequence) the object is still producing a contrail. Unless you believe that dark line is an aircraft or missile body.

Thank you. As you continue to prove it's validity, I will.
"Video. Video vs. graph"
Riiight. You mean the 52 seconds of spliced pieces of out of sequence stills and zoomed in shots? That video? Like I said, I prefer to reference all the facts.
