Wow, this is really interesting that similar things are cought by separate pilots!
My first inclination is that it is something real close to the camera giving the appearance of speed by being smeared across separate camera frames. But I don't think that is a good explanation.
There is a technique where you copy paste little sections of each frame showing only the object and you over lay them on top of each other which enhances the contrast of the object and gives and averaging of what it looks like. That sometimes can give you a better picture of what it might be. It's often used for UFO sightings that are moving and appear to be blinking or glinting. However I don't see that the resolution of the frame grabs is good enough to apply there. But with some patients and a photo management program you should be able to try that technique. But it takes patience and work. Also switching to black-and-white and inverting color of the image can sometimes bring out details that are otherwise missed.
