I saw blue glow while flying?

Question

was in my dads private jet, when we saw a eerie blue glow all around the plane...what was this???

Answer 1

It could be st elmos fire, but thats more like little fireballs.

I think it was a cloud effect. The reflection off the aircraft from light though or off clouds at night is pretty blue sometimes, and even during the day I bet you could get that effect. You dont have to be in clouds or even near them, and a polished aircraft accentuates it a buttload.

Answer 2

Talking about prop planes here: I've seen it many times.  It happens when flying in clouds sometimes, but not every time.  It is really neat when it is glowing around the windshield and you can put your finger up close to it and the blue sparks will flow off it.  It doesn't hurt at all.  It's just really eerie.  I've never known it to do any damage to an airplane either.  Even more eerie: if the paint at the ends of the propeller is worn off, the blue shows up in an arc.  Quite a show indeed!

Answer 3

Sounds like St. Elmo's fire; a static electricity phenomenon.

Answer 4

The blue color indicates evil. You are now possessed. Bad luck will follow you, all the rest of your days.
