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 attended the Annual Atlantic City Air Show on Wednesday August 24th, 2022. The air space was restricted for the show. I took 5 photos in succession of the F/A 18 Super Hornet Demonstration. A few days later, when I was reviewing my photos, and pinching them on my iPhone to enlarge the image of the jet, I noticed a UFO Anomaly in the fifth and final photo of the series. The Anomaly appears to be above the FA18 in approximately the 11 o’clock position. The Anomaly does not appear in any of the previous photos in the series, and all five photos were taken within a couple of seconds. The F/A 18 was the only craft in the air during the time of the demonstration. Because I wanted to include the screenshot of the 5th photo enlarged to illustrate my findings, I’ve omitted the first photo in the series, since I was limited to uploading 5 total images. All photos were taken by my iPhone 11 ProMax. I subsequently contacted Bill Davenport of the National UFO Reporting Center via phone on Saturday, September 3rd, and he instructed me to file this report. Thank You,

The objects closely resembled the swarm of objects depicted in the 2008 Mexico City video on YouTube. There were other unknown objects that flew through and or close to the 50 + sphere's that had red white and possibly blue running gear but no visible wings. I observed the objects from the 20th floor of the Oceans Casino and from the Oceans beech front area. The objects were observed directly overhead at times. Oceans Casino is 735 feet high and the objects appeared to be 3 to 4 times higher based on my 2 different view points The sighting was 4 hours long and ended when I we t to bed at 2:30 am.

First sighted couple of lights above the ocean, but I thought it was TV reflection on hotel windows, but was wrong. After 10 minutes saw couple of lights above some hotel rooms. They moved around, then flew away in different directions. After 5-6 minutes, bunch of them came back, brighter, faster, made some formations. Took couple of videos through the window.

While driving on AC Expressway towards marina tunnel exit, I spotted this cloud like worm shape floating over the Bay Area Casinos. It was large & bright white floating horizontally in a clear blue sky. I only had a few minutes to observe it and watched it dip downwards but kept its long shape, this object was a solid mass and not a cloud or jet trail & it was gone a few minutes later by the time I came thru the tunnel.
