Flash over West Chazy, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were driving on the Highway 87, going north, and we noticed a bright white light behind us. It would flash white every second and seemed to be following us. The object looked like it was flying close to the road, as we saw it pass over a bridge. We thought about a plane on an emergency landing, but it stayed behind is for too long. We where driving at 65 miles/hour. The object was flying close to the trees and was following the curves of the road (left to right). We were 5 in the car and everybody saw it. We are all sober, as,well. It got really close to the car (100 feet), and then got further.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #136771). 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.
