Triangle over Plainville, CT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Was driving past Tunxis Community College, on my way back from Bristol Walmart, and happened to catch a glow of light as I looked up. I proceeded down Plainville Ave. past Tunxis, when I looked in my rearview mirror and saw a very bizarre irregular black craft, low flying in the sky. I pulled my car over to get a better look when I noticed a very bizarre shaped craft with two red blinking lights one on top and one on the bottom of this object. I have never seen anything quite like it in my life. Perhaps it was a drone of some kind? It proceeded very slowly to move west towards Bristol and out of view. I could not estimate size of object other than it appeared irregular in shape, with two blinking red lights.

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.

As I got closer the lights flew over the Trumbull Ave. neighborhood and then headed near the YMCA along Rte 10 North bound, over the cemetery and towards the area of Robertson Airport. This object seem to change shape to a butterfly with colored lights when it was near the YMCA, but went back straight line of white lights. Lost view of it as it flew North.

Me and my friend were sitting out side having a smoke. We are on the approach for Boston Airport. The last few nights we have see lines of jets flying to Boston as always. Tonight, we saw the flights as always but with a twist. There were 2 saucer like disks, a bit larger than the commercial flights going along abreast, a lot higher than the planes. No sound or lights, just a reflection from the setting sun. It passed 2 airlines like they were traveling 2 times there speed. We have had a bunch of sightings in the last 2 months!

I was getting in my car to go pick up my Daughter from work. I sat in my car and started it and closed the door. I am a smoker, so I put the driver side window down. Looking up at the stars and noticed a big orange/pink light coming out of the South West. I got out of the car to get a better look, and it had a bright orange/pink glow all around it when it was approaching and when it was departing. As the first one passed at a slow speed, I looked and about 5 miles right behind it was another one. The first one had no sound at all. I alerted two young kids of about 13 and told them to look up. They were freaking out. I ran in and grabbed my camera and got a shaky video, but you can clearly see the 2 crafts one in front of the other. Really cool. I will upload the video in its raw form, if I can. Going out to look a little more.
