Cigar over Molino, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw a UFO in the West sky around 620PM while we were porch sitting and above the clouds my husband spotted an oblong/Cigar shaped type white/iridescent UFO flying and it was going sloowww...so I grabbed my binoculars and my husband and I got a better look at it..it was drifting downward and then it stopped and hoovered above the tree line. We both couldnt really make out any discernible shape to the object by looking at it closer...then it just drifted out of sight. So about 5 to 7 min later in the distance we see something we think look like geese flying and so Im like oh let me look with the binoculars NO it was 5 Pensacola Navy Blue Angels flying in a formation from the direction that the UFO was!! That felt very confirming for us that something was going on.

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.
