Exploding Chinese Balloon Thread

Lot of fuss, but I think it will end up a load of hot air.

About the size of a small car, they say, but what type and was it reasonably priced? They’re keeping very quiet on that.

I think they were just trying to get round the new ULEZ

I think that the UFO took a wrong turning

The balloon was 60 metres in hight, its the flying small car that was the size of a flying small car.

Are these flying machines recording better images etc than satellites are ?...
or, is this just a smoke & mirror exercise to take attention away from Sy Hersh's latest controversial revelation ?

Scally got it shot down because it had a get out message on it.

Three bus size -well, American school buses or proper buses like Atlanteans or RLM’s, there’s a big difference, and what Americans call a small car, I mean, I think we’re none the wiser.

Probably just from a big birthday party. Does it say Happy 40th on the side?

It all sounds fantastically unlikely but I'd love for it to be true. Low tech, slow moving blimps drifting across the skies hoovering up information unseen by hackers, AI and all sorts of high tech cleverness. Are the Cubans still taking over the world with magic rays

If the Chinese want to know what the Yanks are up to they should just ask the woman 3 doors up from me. She seems to know f@#king everything!

What ever happened to Sadiq Khan's giant balloon of Donald Trump in a nappy?

This is chinas great answer to the us totally encircling them with us bases and full satellite and spy plane coverage.

Latest rumour.
The balloons are a joint chinese/amazon/ebay/santa initiative to help move the millions of $ of goods the us requested china to manufacture lol.

You’ve got a Chinese Junk in your garage ?
How on earth did you get it in there ?
I’m impressed.

Most came from B&Q

Its all part of the circular economy init.
Australia digs stuff up sends it to China who turn it into low quality cheap stuff that we buy and stick back into the ground a few months later.

Followed what I thought was a Chinese spy balloon today, for 200 miles. Then I realised it was just bird shit in the windscreen!

148th National Guard Fighter Wing F 16’s based in Duluth brought the last one down with an AIM 9X -go Bulldogs- although twin Vickers with Buckingham ammunition would have been cheaper.
