No height finding equipment was available at point or observation, but the
observers estimated the altitude at loco' from the radar returns. Weather
conditions at time of sighting were: inlimited, with
moderate winds from the west.
II. Discussion of Incident
The possibility of the reported object being a balloon was checked by the
reporting officer. The nearest balloon n launch station is at Waukegan, Michigan,
which is l40 miles from Port Austin. A piball type balloon was released from
Waukegan at 0300Z. It is nc likely that this balloon caused the sighting
because the object in questi S 0304Z.
Both the visual and electronic sightings were made by the same personnel,
consisting of two officers and three airmen. All of these men have three or
in nndon Arado to inetalled hut wme
on a radar scope.
Further analysis this sighting awaits adiabatic weather cherts for
the date and area of sighting. Until this information
is carried as unknown. DOWNGRADED AT 3

SECTIONAL CHARTS
The sectional aeronautical chart series provides complete coverage of the United States. An additional ehart covers the
Hawaiian Islands. These charts are designed primarily for piloting, which is also known' as contact flying. They contain a
maximum amount of cultural topographie features ineluding important landmarks.
Sectional charts are revised at six-month periods to insure that the airman has the latest information available, and are sold
through authorized agents located at ais ports and principal cities throughout the United States. They may also be obtained
In the lower rizht-hand corner is printed the date of the chart. Below this the next scheduled printing is indieated. If the
date of the chart is more than six months oid, users are advised to check with the notices (Dates of Latest Prints) on file
with authorized agents. Charts that carry older dates than those shown in large type on this list of dates are obsolete.
