Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

I was smoking a cigerett and saw a sesna (small airplaine) flying . I looked up to look at it as it was flying low. I then noticed a very bright light high in the atmosphere. Moving very quickly then turned off at a 45 degree angle and picked up speed then disappeared. It was a clear morning with the sun shining. There was no visible object (airplaine, or metal) it was just a bright light in the southern sky and as bright as it was it looked as if the light should have been bouncing off of whatever it was , from the north...it was super weird. No sound, just a bright light ..
