Pilot narrative
Verbatim, de-identified by NASA. Placeholders: ZZZ,
X, Y.
During TEJAS 5 arrival, at 6000 ft over HOWLN waypoint, I saw a flying object that was presumably a drone. Approximately 50 inches wide, and similar length carrying some sort vertical "load" (rectangular shape ) both grey color with a green light on it. The object was around 50 ft or less away from the right wing tip. I will appreciate if you can share any findings regarding this event.
