Triangle over Dixmont, ME
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I looked out my window to see what the weather was going to be and see a fast moving object , moving to the left of my vision looking to the south west. At first I thought it was an eagle with prey. But it had triangle shape wings on top and some thing hanging down under the wings, like a large barrel shape. It was bright red on half of the right side of it. With my line of sight I would say it was a few miles in front of my window. About the size comparison of a dime, in distance, within my view. As it banked to the left ,the top of the wings got bright white because it was sunrise here to the south west. It kept moving to left and disappeared from view because of the trees. It never went any further to the left of the tree line. It was lost from my view.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #125239). 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.
