I've seen lights in the sky that I can't explain being made by conventional aircraft out at Banff. It was a single light, very high up, and it would hover, sprint ahead, hover again, do sudden reversals, zigzag, etc. I've never seen an aircraft that could move at the speed this light did, and do sudden stops, reversals and zigzags. It was definitely a UFO.
What's important to remember though is what the acronym UFO stands for ... Unidentified Flying Object. By that definition what I saw certainly fits the criteria. But that doesn't provide any quantifiable evidence about the birth planet of the pilot. It was an unidentifiable flying object, but there are many explanations aside from a license plate that's not from our solar system ... experimental aircraft, light anomalies, optical illusions, hoaxes, etc., etc. It's fun to think they're alien aircraft, but being a born skeptic, I want quantifiable evidence.
Good explanation and pretty much what I saw, except it followed me from Castlegar to Princeton on a late night drive. My passenger also watched it and when I stopped for gas the attendant also saw it. I don't know what it was or where it came from, maybe just a weird light and it was the Kootenays.
^^^ Actually Foo Fighter is the full name for UFO I believe, not the ones fighting them. If they were fighting them they would be foo fighter fighters.

The above is a typical example of an encounter with a "foo fighter." Toward the end of World War II pilots began reporting seeing strange glowing balls flying around their aircraft at night. The objects seemed to maneuver with great speed and the Allies began to worry that the German's had developed a new weapon with startling capabilities.
EDIT: That's right Dion, the pilots (Japanese I think) called the UFO's 'foo fighters'. They themselves were not 'foo fighters'.
Better definition.
The objects were dubbed "foo fighters." because of a popular comic strip at the time, Smoky Stover. Smoky was fond of saying "Where there's foo there's fire" and the objects seem to be fiery, rounded shapes.
trust me dude. The Foo Fighters were the secret government funded organization that were meant to study and defend against those cylinders and they got that name from that comic reference in your definition you provided
