Oxtord, Ohio
Dear r
We have checked our recorda or Novenber 5, l9o5 and find we have no
informtion unusual type activities in the Dayton Area that
evenias.
Cur control poaitions norally sean the area within 33 nautical miles
of Patterson Fiald. As Oxtord is slightly beyond thia dstance 1e
would not noraally be looking at that area unless for some special
reason ie vere ccerating on extended radar range. Another factor whieh
makes the post identification of a particular aireraft or cbject cuite
dirfienlt is the conaiderabls amount of alr trarfie cperating in and
traversing the Dayton Area, a large percentage or which we bave no
inforaation. Cur controllers would not normally be coneerned vith
trarrie of thia type except to issue it as trarfis adviaory informmtion
to the aircrart
I am forvarding your lattar
be able to ahed a some further liaht on this for you.
Sincerely,

Dear Sir:
My name is a student at Miami University in
Oxford, Ohio. Last Friday, I spotted three redish-white objects flying in a
not you might have picked
them up on our radar. his event is given on the next page.
I would really appreciate it, if you would reply whether or not an
airplane or some other aireraft flew over Oxford, Ohio at 7: 46 P.M. I did
my best to give you an accurate report. I hope that this will be of value to
you in anyway possible. This observation of mine took place Friday, November
the 5th, 7: 46 P.M. of this year, 1965.
Sincerely,

The objects were more reddish in appearance at the outer
re whitish in appearance at the center. There was no
sharg differentiation between red and white. It was a blend of both colors.
These three objects moved in a southwestern direction flying in perfect for-
mation with no deviance whatever. The date, which I forgot to mention earlier,
was Friday the November 5th, 1965. The following is a drawing of the forma-
tion of the designated objects:

The object designated B appeared to take the lead with A behind it,
they were at a 6 eangle fr where I stood. They moved at a
slow
from my sight at 7: 50:P.M. The intensity of light was the same for all
three objects and was about twice as bright as a star. They looked to be
approximately 600 feet from the ground and in size appeared like a softball
100 feet from the ground.
