Triangle over Washington, D.C. & Baltimore (between; on I-295), MD
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Hovering aircraft with white lights at the wing tips and red lights in the center. It was dark in color but looked like it had wings like a plane but was stationary in the sky. There were many vehicles on the road at the time so there should be other reports/sighting. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #125716). 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.
