AIR CREW SIGHTING AT MEXICO CITY AIRPORT:

Salazar Mendoza reports via Ana Luisa Cid to inexplicata.blogspot.com that the crew of a Boeing 737-200 reported the presence of an unidentified flying object during descent maneuvers at Mexico City International Airport on October 27, 2008, at 9:00 p.m.

"According to flight mechanic Juan Jose Dominguez, the object was elliptical in shape, resembling an elongated teardrop, which crossed the airliner from the left. He added that the UFO moved at low speed, estimating that its frontal diameter was some 8 meters, roughly that of the airliner's cabin."

"The airliner was flying the Los Cabos-Mexico City route. There was good visibility and clear skies. Witnesses have requested that the airline's name be kept confidential."

SIGHTING IN HICO, TEXAS, USA:

The Hico News Review Publisher reports on October 30, 2008 that there were sightings of an unidentified flying object across north Texas again in the past week. In Hico, during the junior varsity football game at Tiger Stadium Thursday, October 23, Sonny Morrow looked up toward the western and saw a large object in the sky above and beyond the stadium pressbox. He said it was too dark to see what it was, but it had two rows of orange lights and a stationary disc shaped object: "It was dark, but you could see three lights on one side and when they went around you could see the other three lights. It was spinning like a Frisbee," he said. He watched it for about seven or eight seconds, then it disappeared. He added it was big and pretty far away. "It wasn’t hovering over the stadium or anything, it was pretty far back."

VIDEO TAKEN IN BRANDENBURG, GERMANY:

Someone published a video reportedly capture over Brandenburg, Germany on October 18, 2008, showing what is called "UFOs". The small lights, apparently slow moving, might of course just be thai lanterns, whereas the red so-called "laser beams" might just be video artifacts.
