Formation over Winchester, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Driving through the neighborhood north/northwest we saw approximately two dozen lights, in formation, slowly descending. It’s possible the lights were connected to one craft or several different crafts in formation. They were similar to an isosceles triangle with a wide base and short sides. We also noticed what appeared to be several aircraft heading toward the object or near it. I made my girlfriend stop the car (in the middle of the road) so I could snap a photo. She, a pragmatist, could only explain the phenomenon as a “drone show”. I snapped a photo but failed to realize the flash was on, and the photo does not do the sighting justice.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #150216). 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.
