Cigar over North York, ON · Canada

The report, as filed

We saw a cigar shaped crafted that was tanish in colour. My 86 year old mother saw it in sky as we were waiting to make a left hand turn onto Van Horne Ave. She asked me what it was and I looked and answered I think it was a plane. My mother said "It doesn't look like a plane to me". I looked again and said to my mother "I think it is descending". I could not see the wings or tail and figured maybe this was why I couldn't see them. I also noted that there was no trail behind it but that is not uncommon with planes so I didn't really think much of that at the time. The traffic light turned green and I proceeded to make my left hand turn and didn't think about it again till later that night when I was telling my husband about what we saw. It was during that talk with my husband that I realized that even if the plan was descending and might have been on a slight angle away from me that I would still be able to see the tail and or at least one of the wings. That's when the light went on and I realized what I saw was a UFO not a plane. I also noted that I didn't remember seeing it moving because I was to busy looking for wings and the tail. The next day I was out driving and saw another craft which was a plane and it was actually tilted a slight bit and I could clearly see the wings and the tail so I know what I saw on Wed was a UFO.
