This Federal Aviation Administration record, released by the Department of Transportation in 2023, logs an unidentified aerial phenomenon report from 4 September 2023. JetBlue flight JBU278, an A321 flying from San Francisco to Fort Lauderdale, reported moving lights at its 11 to 1 o'clock position. The aircraft was southbound at FL400, 3 NM south of OAL. The FAA did not notify law enforcement, and the report notes no impact on the flight. It says the sighting appears to correlate with Starlink satellites.
