Light over Whitecourt (Canada), AB · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
As we entered Whitecourt from the North, we noticed two lights in the sky. One was very obviously a helicopter as it moved slowly through the sky. The other we thought was a helicopter as it had a bright white light and smaller flashing red light. The bright white light changed to bright green and the object moved quickly through the sky circling in front of us. The smaller flashing red light at times swung out quite far from the main light and at times disappeared completely. As we entered the city, we lost sight of it, but then it reappeared and again circled around at various speeds.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #115185). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

Crystal clear evening watching the stars when right above me a translucent triangle type something with about 6? Lights, emitting zero sound and moved so fast i only saw it for about 2 seconds. Flowing colors, faint but noticeable. May have been about 500 meters wide. Wow. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
