Formation over Lake Havasu, NC
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Several white lights in a rough line moved across the sky at a steady pace. It was after sunset but when the “lights” passed what would be assumed to be the recently set sun from the altitude of the objects, the lights were brighter. The brightness returned to how they were previously fairly quickly. The lights were steady and white. The first light seemed to have a headlight beam. There were several lights - about 5 in close proximity to one another, followed by a few more at a short distance. The spacing never changed. It was almost like a plane pulling an advertisement banner at the beach but with lights! Very high in the sky and eventually 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.
