The report, as filed
I heard a low flying small jet, military. Which fo not fly in this area. Coming from the ocean. Heading towards RAAF Amberly Base. Flying low and slow. Here is the really crazy bit- No nav lighting I could hear it BUT - I could not SEE it. Yep, thats right, not see it. How do i its military. Im ex RAAF. It was F18, or F22 Raptor or Stealth F17 or something secret. This plane was invisible to human eye. How bizzare is that. True account of happened, swear it in court.

Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
Australian aerial sighting records answer to the Freedom of Information Act 1982. 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.
