driving home, i saw a massive plane just hovering close to the ground. it was dead still once i saw it, and it stayed there for at least 10 seconds. it wasn’t until i turned my head away and back and saw the end of it turning away at a stop light.
from a perspective, my speed was around 40 mph.
super freaky, i thought it was a new piece of architect or a balloon, but it was not.

Large jet planes (I assume that’s what you’re talking about) cannot be still in the air – it just appeared that way to you. It was an optical illusion resulting from the angle of your eyes to the plane and the ground. Smaller planes *can* actually be airborne and stationary over the ground if they’re flying into a strong headwind.
