Other over Spangle, WA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was in the back seat of my friends car and caught a craft out of the corner of my eye. When I looked over I saw the craft for a few seconds then it zoomed away. It was probably 50 feet from us. I didn't say anything to my friends but was terrified. I mentioned it on the drive home and they both started crying hysterically because they saw it too.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #173514). 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.
