Henry, both 47th Fighter Interceptor Sq on the ground, saw a circular brilliant white object with smaller 6 pale green lights on its perimeter move slowly at constant altitude at 8 mins first then make fast pivoting turns, maneuvering radically SE to NE (from azimuth 150° elevation 45° to azimuth 75° elevation 65°), disappearing in a rapid steep climb. Radar tracked for 3 mins by CPS6 ground ADC site. (McDonald list; Jan Aldrich) |
