That (or something similar) is what I saw in late October 2005. I was sitting on my balcony in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. There was an odd weather phenomenon- low clouds that came down to about the 15th floor on the beachside condos. A more-or-less full moon rising above the ocean illuminated the cloud cover like an old style rear screen projector. I watched for several minutes a delta shaped black object fly south along the coast. It looked like this TR-3B. There were no lights showing and the only reason I was able to see it was because of the odd lighting.

I was familiar with flights patterns there. Navy helicopters flew low so that my view of them was cut off at times by the condos.  The commercial airliners flew much higher so my view of their paths was cut off by my porch overhang.  This thing flew on a path in between.
