I think it is not a meteor- it is going way too slow.

I thing someone tossed a rock out of the plane

My thought also.

I would also think there might be sound associated with something traveling as fast as a meteorite going by.

I think you’re right. I can’t imagine a meteorite slowing down to terminal velocity.

I’m sorry, but you are incorrect. The meteor has just been slowed by atmospheric drag to terminal velocity... somewhere in the 130 - 170 mph range I suspect.
