Do they fly an angled straight line - or a triangle formation?

I hope that other people here who have seen NOSS satellites more
often will chime in with their take on that question, but as I posted
in my report a couple of nights ago, the geometry of the triangle
changed considerably during the pass.

When I first spotted them (not long before their maximum elevation),
they were in an elongated right triangle. By the time they disappeared
several minutes later, the triangle was very flat.
