Triangle over Fredrickson, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was at work on 2nd shift at the Boeing Fredrickson plant on 2-18-2020. And we heard helicopter fly very low above our building. I ran outside to see if it was landing at our emergency helicopter pad. As soon as I opened up the door to go outside the loud noise abruptly stopped. As I looked up above me I witnessed a large black triangle with 6 lights around the edge with a small flashing red light in the middle edge of the trailing end. It quietly and slowly flew south towards The Army/Air force base “Joint Bas Lewis McCord”. I make airplanes for a living and grew up in the Air Force and I’ve never seen anything lit this craft.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #153488). 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.
