Oval over Peintures (Les), Aquitaine · France
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Un témoin rapporte plusieurs observations de phénomènes lumineux ovoides se déplaçant en va et vient dans le ciel. Toutes ces observations ont lieu entre 2h15 et 3h50 du matin. La réception très tardive du PV de gendarmerie ne rend plus l'enquête possible entre autre pour la recherche d'avions ou d'hélicoptères éventuellement présents à cet instant sur zone. [GEIPAN classification C — Manque d'informations fiables]
Held as-reported from GEIPAN, Centre national d'études spatiales (record GEIPAN 2009-02-02407). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
