The report, as filed
Saw a UFO sighting this time it was closer and higher up in the air. around 5am I abruptly woke up which I normally do not and went to the balcony (beachfront) and saw UFO with lights flashing and hovering in the same spot. after 30-40 minutes it started to disappear very quickly further out into the ocean. This was the second sighting the first one which was a few days prior had flashing lights white and a one red light and it appeared to be hovering over the ocean (NOT A SHIP) this was a night also.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #166437). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.
