How a private plane could cross Spain, France and Germany, apparently without being piloted? The device caused a small movement of panic, Sunday, September 4. The French authorities even sent fighter planes and Rafales to escort him. The device ended up being damaged at sea, off the coast of Latvia.

Already four hours that the private jet no longer responds. The pilot of the fighter plane escorting him sees no one in the cockpit. There is no movement in the cabin. This ghost plane was filmed by a resident on an island in the Baltic Sea, minutes before crashing into the sea. The plane left from Spain. A few minutes after takeoff, the pilot reported a drop in pressure then, very quickly, no one responded to air traffic control in the aircraft.

The French Air Force decided to escort him during his visit to France. No activity was detected at that time. According to the flight plan, the plane was to stop in Germany, more precisely in Cologne, but it continued on its way. He was escorted by German fighter planes. According to the flight report, there were four people on board, an entrepreneur and experienced pilot, his wife, their daughter and her fiancé.
