Triangle over National City, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Later I realized it reminded me of the scene in close encounters of the third kind, where the ship was directly overhead, expect for the shape and the many lights.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #116081). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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 driving home, going North on the I-805. In the sky ahead I saw 3 lights, 2 bright ones and 1 not as bright, maybe further or just smaller than the other 2. I first noticed the 2 bright lights then the smaller one, it may have detached from the other 2 or have been there just didn't notice it at first. The 2 brighter lights didn't move and the smaller light did, but then they all remained mostly stationary. I questioned if they were planes but then I saw what I knew was a plane, and the plane just flew past the lights, on what seemed like a normal route to the San Diego airport. I kept my eye on them since the moment I noticed until I arrived home. Due to a big tree in the way I don't know what happened to them.
