So it was probably a model rocket, not a missile.
Investigators say a flying object that narrowly missed a Continental Express plane last month may have been a large model rocket.
Pilots potted the object at roughly 16,000 feet. It was about 5 feet to 7 feet long.
Still, 16,000 feet? That wasn't one of these
these.
