Disk over Tilene, KY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
i snapped 2 pictures of a Cessna 150 type plane going overhead. first picture had the ufo in it. second one did not. when i was pointing the camera straight up, i didnt see anything else in the air. just the plane. the cessna is the tiny pale white object in the upper middle of the picture. the ufo is to the rite of it. the sun is shining on the object from the rite side of the photo. the shape of the object is like a disk on its side, with a cone stickin out of one side of it, and a dome on the side towards the sun, complete with shadows. the cone is pointing towards the west. you have to really zooooooom in one it but its there. and a lot bigger and clearer than the cessna. the time of day was about 3:30 pm labor day. i tried to send in the picture but the process got too complicated .

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.
