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 outside the front door and saw lights dripping down like molten iron. Just dropped down and the stopped at an abrupt halt. They then formed a single file and head off 90 degrees to the north east.

Thought at first I was viewing a shooting star, but the trajectory of the ufo was too linear, and it seemed to be moving from high to low elevation, instead of across the sky. It had a long white/yellow tail and a glowing red head but then once it got to a certain elevation everything went dark and there we’re a series of green and red flashing lights in a triangular pattern that remained and moved slowly away from my viewing point. The lights hovered over Mt. Mansfield for 20 minutes and I could clearly make out a blinking triangular pattern. Then the lights vanished, as if a switch had been flipped, and the ufo was gone. Witness does not indicate a date for the sighting. We have attempted to contact him, and have requested a correction for the date. We have written in an assumed date for the sighting, and will amend that date, once we've heard from the witness. PD
