Triangle over Walpole, NH
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Two gray fighter jets were chasing a dark gray or black triangular shaped craft headed west. I’m unsure the elevation they were at but looked to be about 1.00” long. I would guess they were 5000-8000’. They were doing slalom like maneuvers which is what caught my attention. They were moving so fast it caught me so off guard I didn’t even notice the black triangular aircraft at first. The triangular craft was seemingly just moving, if that makes sense. As in, there wasn’t the expected movement like the jets. Almost as if I was blinking very quickly as it would move, but I wasn’t blinking. It definitely seemed like the craft was easily outmaneuvering the two jets. Unfortunately I couldn’t react fast enough to get pics or video.

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.
