According to an aviation incident report posted on 11 August 2021, both a Canadian military and a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines flight “reported seeing a bright green flying object” that “flew into a cloud, then disappeared” over the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, in a stretch of open water between Quebec and Newfoundland.

The KLM passenger flight (KLM618) was traveling from Boston to Amsterdam while the Canadian military transport aircraft (CFC4003) was flying between CFB Trenton, a base in Ontario, and Cologne, Germany.
Few other details were made available in the report, which appeared in CADORS, the Canadian government’s flight incident archive.
The Canadian military plane may have been travelling to Europe as part of a mission to bring Afghan personnel to Canada. Data posted to Twitter by aviation and shipping researcher Steffan Watkins suggests the Canadian flight even changed course and altitude at the time of the sighting, which might actually have occurred on July 31.
The Canadian military and KLM airlines did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the July 30 UFO report in CADORS. Nor did Nav Canada, the private company that operates Canada’s air traffic control system and whose employees would have received the initial reports. In all statements relating to its aviation reporting system, Transport Canada cautions the “reports contain preliminary, unconfirmed data, which can be subject to change.”
