Light over Bogia on Escambia River, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Driving home from a hunting trip on escambia river to pensacola i saw a series of perfectly level lights hanging maybe a thousand feet above the ground. At first I thought they were stars, but then noticed they were moving spatially with the car and they were much too close to be stars. I remained looking at them for about 4 or 5 minutes until they were no longer visible behind the curvature of the road. The elderly gentleman with me was looking at the road as he was towing a boat and refused to look over. I tried to get a picture but they were too far away; I was able to catch a brief glimpse on video nothing is really visible.

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.
