If I see an insect on a plane with an iphone, I'll....An insect inside the aircraft would be my bet
A large plane flying that low over Texas is probably kicking up a lot of hillbillies.

I also wouldn't rule out a reflection in the window or the camera lens right away.
Yeah, the fact that it's outrunning the plane makes my bird theory kind of dumb, unless the Mythbusters are at it again with their frozen chicken cannon. Given the general blobbiness of the image, I'd say a reflection or other optical artifact is probably a pretty viable theory.
A bird or insect will easily "outrun" a plane if it's closer to the camera than the plane.

Reflection from inside the plane.
This is my bet. It doesn't seem to have any defined shape and in a couple of frames is just a streak. I'm thinking someone walking up the aisle of the plane with something shiny on their belt, an iPhone maybe.
In Fort Worth, that would be goat ropers.
