The Big Black Delta of the Farallones

In the UFO community, there are things spoken of known as "Big Black Deltas". While this sounds like something of Southern provenance rendered hopelessly un-p.c. in 21st century America, it actually refers to a specific type of UFO. 


The typically "Big Black Delta" is a large (600' to 1 mile) long triangular aircraft, completely silent.

Think of a giant black scone, a thousand feet or more long on the two equal sides, gliding silently through the air. Decorated with lights, like an airplane, it is sometimes so low you can throw a rock and hit it. 

And then suddenly, it accelerates so quickly that it's gone from view within ten seconds.

Sounds fantastic? Yet it's been seen by hundreds of eyewitnesses across the United States and abroad. Including off the Farallones.

Publicly, Mysterious SF says: If legit, this proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that "BBDs" are actually government craft. How many aliens have called someone "idiot"? (Doubtlessly more than one UFO observer has deserved it.) Mysterious SF believes that 75% of all sightings of unexplainable aerial phenomenon are actually of government craft.

Privately, Mysterious SF says: If it is a government craft, which part of the government operates it? Mysterious SF theorizes that the craft are flown by private contractors, much like Evergreen and Southern Air Transport did during the Cold War, to give the government cover. "Of course we don't have BBDs!" the denial would go. The unfinished part of the sentence is, "...someone else flies them for us." 

And how does it fly, anyway?
