Circle over Mahwah/Ramsey border, NJ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was in the air force and know what craft look like in the sky day and night and can tell you which craft it is usually by its sound. This WAS NOT one of ours. Those moves do not jive with our basic understandings of physics. I do know that there was a commercial jet in the background id say a couple miles south of the sighting and am curious if anyone else seen this.

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.
