Other over Silverpeak, NV
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
It started with one fairly large light in the sky, we thought it was a drone. It had moved to the northwest of our location and almost crossed paths with another one of these objects. The sighting had ended once the first craft had moved over the mountain to the northwest, and the second craft had moved more west away from our location. Mind you all crafts that were seen were moving very very slow and were identified by me as a U shaped craft. 5 to 10 minutes after the first sighting there was a formation of crafts flown over our location, the formation was a 3x1 formation, they were all in a straight row from north to south formation, one flew directly over us while one flew, on the south side of the craft directly over us and the third craft in the formation was north of the one over our location. We thought this was the end of it. After ending the call with you, there was one more craft following up behind them, still moving slow, and no sound at all. It was very strange. Also on 11/16/17 there was another strange light in the sky more to the south of our location on what we call the "Salt Flats" we believed it to be a ufo and not an airplane because of the unusual flight pattern. It seemed to move east then move back west but an airplane wouldn't be able to do that flight pattern.

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.
