and I was just out looking at a house yesterday and I
know I hnd this appointment at six, so I know it was a
e house - and
NBiUSA Ita3 on and I was standing - this would be
about 180° position when sighting by hand - and this
thing was
CAPTAIN NAYLOR: about due south
MR I was about due south and the first time I stood on the
sidewalk and I seon this thing it wns coming,I would say,
pretty olose 3 wway fron me wway fron me
CAPTAIN NAYLOR: It was 1 It was bearing of 32o from your position?
M2. MR. It was bearing from about 320 320 the first time I seen it.
It looked It looked like it was going like it was going in for about, I would say in for about, I would say
about 30° or something like that. But anyway, I was
on the sidovalk and I sed this and took on a definite
shape. It was pointe Lengular - it had like a
glov over it - it lo a glow on tho outer edges
of it and the insid It kind of sparkled like maybe
a star dropping. It was very, very bright - tho whole
definite shape to it, and when I
ran to the street it was going aoross - and from my
perception it looked to me like it would go juot sbout
over the big runway at Pattecson Field.
CAPTAIN NAYLOR: Would you estimate that it was traveling parallol with the
horison or
It was pretty low. It was on parallel with the horison,
yes, but it was dowm low, it wasn't too high.

AR No, it was bright. It was so bright that it almost took
on like mngbe a bluish cast like,
CAPTAIN MAYLOR: Could you distinguish a definlte shape to it?
1, * Yes, it was triegular.
CAFTAIN NAYLOR: Did it have any outline other tban light?
. The light by itself was triangular on it and this glow
all around the edge of it. It looked like it was baok of
an overeast.
CAPTAIN NAYLOR: Could you make any estimate on size?
It wes like I ney, first I thought it waa a shooting star,
then I got this sacond view of it and it definitely had a
triangular shape to it, I would uay it was pretly fair -
with the little overoast it would be prettyhard to estimate -
but it was definitely not a star becauge it was not a
parallel with the ground.
CAPTAIN NAYLOR: Did you hear Did you hear 8 any sound or any noise?
11, . MR. There was no nolse, No.
CAPTAIN NAYLOR: CAPTAIN NAYLOR: I'll pass this on the Intelligencs people I'll pass this on the Intelligencs people
