Oval over Surprise (75 miles north of), AZ
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was in the back county taken picture of jeeps coming down a hill. When I enlarge the picture there was a dot in the cloud I enlarge the dot to see it was a large disk in the sky and has a white aura around it and a flat bottom. I would like some one to look at this picture. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #119942). 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.
