A strange encounter over the New Jersey coast in Atlantic City was caught on video by a pilot of a plane apparently being "mirrored" by the drone-like device.

The incident reportedly occurred back on September 16, 2018, and has now been brought to the public's attention by TheDrive.com.

There is video of the incident, plus audio of a call between the pilot and someone with air traffic control.

Take a listen to the conversation with the pilot:
