Did anyone read the news article after answering the pole? Towards the end, it mentions a government simulation to explain the muzzle flashes seen on the FLIR photography, which showed that the flashes were due to sulight.

Is this possible? Anyone know of this study? According to the FLIR expert in "Rules of Engagement", reflected sunlight would not possess enough energy to show up. Whats going on???
 
Mr. Pink,

The assessment is correct. I worked in the IT dept. at FLIR Systems Inc in Portland, OR in 1990. I leaned about the device and its operation from the VP of mfg, who was a total engineer-type.

IR is impervious to "reflections". The only thing it sees is HEAT. However, the FLIR is so sensitive that it can show the trace outline of your shoe print on a tile floor, and you can see individual hairs on your head.
