Go to a racetrack and sit in the stands, watch when a car goes by you at 180.
IF you can even tell what color it was you are doing very good.

the other planes were going at the same relative speed....anyone 500 meters away or so could have seen the plane....anyone 1km away would certainly have seen it...anyone 2kms away would have certainly had time to watch it

you may not be able to freeze frame it in your mind...but i bet you can watch it come and go by you with no issues
