The Chilean Air force has issued a statement that the lights were an air force display corresponding to the graduation of trainee pilots, however some are less than convinced of this explanation.

'Chile is in fact a hotspot for UFO sightings, as are many of its South American neighbours, and the Chilean Air force has a specific unit set up to investigate UFO related phenomena' one ufologist told us. 'If you look at segments of the video in question, well some of it simply doesn't look like anything resembling a squadron of acrobatic planes: some of it looks remarkably like one disc shaped UFO type object'.

What is for certain is that if indeed this is not footage of Chile's finest, this might well be one of the most remarkable UFO events captured on Video. Of course it is entirely possibly that the Air force and Aliens are both captured in the video.

Is the grand prize in Chile for graduating as an air force pilot getting to fly together with alien visitors?
