With the existing information, I cannot make a judgment on what these people saw.
Their home is nearly under the final approach for Runway 27 at Stewart AFB and
their descriptions sound like aircraft in a landing configuration with landing lights
on. The family is convinced that they did not see an aircraft and there was no
air traffic reported at the time they say they observed the object. The exact time
and duration is questionable. If it is unreliable, then a landing aircraft becomes
a possibility. a possibility.
