Hah, they say it happens several times during the week, right around lunch time.

Duh, it's a guy with a foamie airplane on his lunch break.

thats what i thought, but they keep saying it moves very fast.

but if it's tiny it only needs be be sort of fast to not been seen easily.

i know of a flying pizza that will make you think twice, but this one's a bit odd.

plus if it's small, even if it's metal it won't show up on radar.

Could be a popwing or something like that... they're incredibly fast with the right setup.
The video reminded me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=M28KLI5DMvQ
