There wore eight or ten of egular intervals towards
the front o the objeot an these lights perfect semi-circls. As
it passed overhead, I could see the outline the object. Itwas very
definitely circular. I could see the underneath shadow o the hull. I
would say that the objeet was as large as a
feet across. It seened to be very high and yet it was very plainly visible.
It was absolutely silent, no sound at all. In fact, that was one of the
first things that struck me as being so peculiar, that an aireraft that size
could be so clearly seen and yet not make a sound. It was moving in a
straight line on definito course in a north easterly direction. I would
estimate the e at least three hundred miles per hour, very wuch
faster than a conventioral plane of this size could travel. I had it in
view all together at least twenty or thirty secords. Then I ran through
the house and called my wife in hopes that she could see it from the back
the time we could get a clear view, it had disappeared.
notieed was that a thin vapor, almost lik cloud, appeared t form under
ths object. I couldn't see the color of the object itsslf, it looked dark.
However, the forward part the object was illuminated by the reflection of
the lights and could describe it, I would say that it was
dark gray.
I certify that this statement is true and correct the best of my
knowledge:
