Description

I fly EMS and last night as we lifted from base under night vision goggles we had a very bright light directly in front of us that we assumed was another aircraft. With nothing showing on our ACAS we made radio calls with no response. The light accelerated very rapidly out in front of us and disappeared into nothing straight out in front of us (not falling and burning out like a shooting star). As we continued flying we kept having lights suddenly appear go side to side up and down. Commonly in groups of 2 or 3 but sometimes up to 6 at a time. I was able to get a not so great video but it does show 3 lights all slowly moving away from one another. We were flying at 1000’ AGL at 3am with -20F in a very sparsely populated area. I have a hard time thinking it would be drones considering they were also above us.
