Unidentified Flying Object


Yeah so what do you think Jadis/Anne saw in the sky? Blinking lights and slowly moving. Aircraft, helicopter, alien spacecraft?

reply

Looked just like a passenger jet. There was a helicopter that flew by a season or two ago.
Maybe the rest of the country is back up to speed with civilized societies and infrastructure and transportation and these guys are stuck in the wilderness, like those rain forest tribes that have never had any contact with the outside world.

Drones maybe?

reply

That's what I wondered. I couldn't tell if it was a drone, or a helicopter at a distance. Past helicopter sightings lead me to believe it was a chopper, but it did kinda look like a drone. Made me think this is all being done by the power elite as a way to stop overpopulation or something; just watching from a safe distance with drones. Don't know if there is any endgame that was thought out ahead of time or not. It often feels like there wasn't.

It's got to be the chopper, since it's in the opening title sequence and a lot of their promo art. Jadis knows what it is because there was a landing pad at the junkyard.

reply

That would explain why she didn't say anything to anyone about it.

reply

Agreed, but it's weird how she looked alarmed by it;s presence. Rather suspicious.

I didn't think of it that way but that would make it more interesting. That means Jadis may not simply be a "teacher named Anne" like she said. We might learn a whole lot more about her past secrets.

I thought the helicopter might belong to a more advanced community out there, and that's where the older lady with the bookmobile figures into it. But that's just a wild guess at this point.

reply

Yes, it may well be from the Commonwealth.

reply

Ahh, so it was a helicopter. That's one high flying chopper, sheesh.

reply

It was a helicopter ... she said in her phone call she saw the helicopter, and in the subtitles there was a ( helicopter rumbling ) notation ... or something like that. Definitely a helicopter.
