I have not found any aircraft in flight myself, but it seems to me that someone posted a google shot on this forum about a year ago. I wouldn't know
where to search for the link,but if I remember correctly, it was at the north east end of the penninsula.

That's a bit abstract. I have seen images of airplanes, but have not seen the airplanes flying thru the images.

While working on the SF250 course, I found one southwest of San Felipe. I will locate it and post here - please stand by.

I looked quickly but couldn't find it - I seem to recall it was over the mountains north of Matomi - it's somewhere close to the SF250 course. I'll
look again later when I have some more time.
Here's a screenshot of it from a week ago - you get a plane, some sort of "shadow", and its contrail.

I spotted one east of the Baja 500 course that went down the La Rumorosa grade. The plane was south of La Rumorosa. I'll see if I can find it.

While you guys are at it, see if your search can find a UFO or two. The truth is out there!

Isn't it odd that now with almost everyone having a camera (in their cell phone), the UFO photos don't fill the Internet? If this was the 70's, there
were weekly UFO stories! Are there any cell phone UFO photos at all?

Too busy taking selfies or to bother to look up.

Reflections ?
Of some kind, but what ?
Looking at this same area in earlier photos and knowing where a lot of the panels were, I never saw the effect.
Roof Coating ?
