Oval over Fife (UK/Scotland) · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
The weather was very cloudy, with intermittent light rain showers, the object was noted above the line of trees in the sky. This may be easily explained away but upon increasing picture size the object appeared to have an unusual shape with an array of white lights. No sound was noted during its presence or upon its disappearance. (i have not included my full details as no doubt this is something you can easily explain away however my email address is included)
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #120496). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

UK sighting reports were handled by the MoD's UFO desk until 2009; later records answer to the Freedom of Information Act 2000, earlier files sit at the National Archives. 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.
