Other over Ennis, MT
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
As we were watching the light there was a commercial jet tracking from south to north leaving a vapor trail behind it. We first dismissed the light being a meteor because it was stationary at first. We dismissed it being a star because it was still too light out for them to show along with the light started becoming brighter and it started to move tracking the jet that was above and to the right of the ufo. The light was moving at a speed of double to triple the speed of the jet, gaining on it significantly, when all of the sudden, it instantly changed directions, shooting straight up in the sky to about 70-75 degrees over the horizon and its light went out. In its place was a very distinguishable dark boomerang shape with two light colored round objects at the tip of its wings. It stayed hovering for a few seconds and then completely disappeared!

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.
