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 witnessed 4 orange lights moving west. 3 in an inverted triangular pattern with another one following a short distance behind. After approximately 1 minute the pattern of 3 vanished while the single light continued on the same course for another minute before doing the same.

Rotating in sky while hovering up and down and a circular fashion, sometimes hovering almost motionless. Speeding off at a very high rate of speed, no sound. Emitting several different color lights. First green, then red, then white. Twinkling star? PD

Two triangle shaped UFOs were seen hovering about 4 or 5 stories above common (open city) area. The crafts were triangle shaped and had 3 lights at the tips and one in the center. They moved in un-natural flight patterns at very slow speeds and made no sound whatsoever. Crafts eventually went out of site, however, shortly after we lost sight of the UFOs the entire sky turned a blue/white flashing light and looked a lot like when a transformer blows only this much much larger. And towards the end of the flashing, the sky turned completely white for a solid 3 seconds, then all odd activity appeared to be over.

A friend and I were sitting at the cranes roost, In Altamonte Springs. We were just sitting there after having gone for a brisk walk and I noticed something coming out of the sky from the East. There were three red lights moving in a westerly direction. It appeared they were in a formation. Behind them was another three, and then another three. At first it appeared that there was a total of 12. The first 12 one by one disappeared into the night sky. Then there appeared another set of 12 coming in formations of three. Those 12 disappeared into the sky too. There was no sound, no motion, no flickering of light. There was just 24 solid red lights that vanished into the sky.
