On November 3, 2019, numerous users of the FLIGHTRADAR service were very surprised by the behavior of the Israeli Boeing 747-458 airliner, which began to paint very strange figures in the air on the way from Rome to Tel Aviv.
So it looks like the Boeing 747 pilots decided to draw their plane in the air.
From time to time, at various air shows, planes do something similar, however, the drawings are relatively small and are intended for the audience watching the show:
In this case, the drawing turned out to be hefty, and visible only on the service, where the trajectory of the plane is displayed: if the plane was drawn with smoke and exhaust, then it should have dissipated during the drawing. In addition, there are only fish in the Mediterranean.
Another interesting point is the saturation of traffic in this area, where at the time of drawing there were sometimes up to 10 aircraft in the air. And this already creates a certain collision threat and unnecessary workload for dispatchers.
Now the world's conspiracy theorists are actively thinking what it was. The following versions are expressed for explanation.
a) According to the website of El Al Israel Airlines, the last of the airline's Boeing 747s is preparing for retirement. In an updated timetable for the airline, Israel's flagship airline detailed plans to retire the last of its 747s in early November.

According to the air carrier, the last flight of the aircraft is scheduled for the period November 1 - November 3, and the plane was just supposed to fly to Rome and back. Hence the version is expressed that the pilots decided in this way to mark the last flight of the aircraft.
However, the question arises: why is there no information about this from the airline? If this is a show, then the show must have an audience. In addition, there must be some coordination of maneuvers with the dispatch services of the entire region, since a sudden turn of the airliner in the air for pilots on a collision course may look somewhat unexpected.
b) The Israeli plane was hijacked by some hackers / terrorists, and now, when they play enough with aerobatics, they will take the plane to ram an object.
d) Back in 2001, during the debriefing of the liners that crashed into skyscrapers, the conspiracy theorists discovered that if the side number of one of the planes crashed into the WTC was written in the Wingdings font, then a picture would appear where Israel appears.
Hence, some suggest that all this has something to do with the upcoming new 9/11 with planes.
e) Boeing 747 aircraft are assembled at The Boeing Everett Factory, that is, in the city of Everett, Washington. And the city of Everett is part of the metropolitan area of Seattle. Perhaps this is somehow connected?
f) The pilots of the plane are under the influence of some strong substances and do not fully understand what they are doing.
No one knows the exact answer to all these questions, so everyone is waiting for official explanations from El Al Israel Airlines, watching the development of events and watching the plane: what if he draws something else?
