Leaving to phone,

Object was viewed thru @nower binoculars, All that could de seen wis a
circular light one to 2 feet in diameter. It hed the intensity of a Ramp
Floodlight and wis so bright that it blanked out any silhouette (if any)
when sighted in binoculars. In size it was comarable to one of Fairfield-
Suisun AFB's hizh-intensity runway lights. Wo sound was hesrd nor was

any exhanst trail observed. The light was clearly seen with the naked eye
It was brilliant but by no means blinding. Observer APae wai) ... ;
convinced it was not an aircrart navigation light. The nizht wis clear,

No. 215s Very high winds 60-70 ,P.H. from SW at all lovels,
definitely would have prohibited any balloon from making any southerly
motion. Also, last scheduled released time was thres hours prior to
sighting at 1,000 feet. No time in sight given so cannot compute rate

of slimb to 20,000 fest. Fairly conolusive, not a btalioon of any kind.
