At the time the UFO disappeared, I noted the time to be 1345
Local: (1245z). The total time of the UFO sighting was no more
than two to three minutes.

It is interesting to note:

a. During the sighting, all the clouds in the general area
maintained their relative positions and as the UFO maneuvered
as described above, it was easy to observe its relative position
in reference to these clouds and N-250.

b. The presence of these clouds and the haze layer had a
tendency to camouflage the visual sighting of the UFO.

c. The UFO maintained its altitude within the top of the haze
layer. Because of this I was not able to discern its exact shape

or substance.

d. It left no trail and flew through the atmosphere blending
well with the existing weather phenomena that prevailed at that

time.
