Triangle over Abergele, CONWY CO · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Whilst outside in my garden I was looking at the stars and a meteor caught my eye, so I decided to look in that direction for more. After around a minute I noticed 3 dark triangles in formation, 1 in front and two to the rear travelling at speed from the North East direction headed Southwest. The speed was amazing and no with no sound they travelled most of the visible sky in around 5 seconds, I live below a flight path where planes fly at cruising altitude and they can be heard. I estimate them to be at a quite low altitude around a few hundred feet as they seem to be lit from street lights which made them harder to see. None of the them had lights.

Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
UK sighting reports were handled by the MoD's UFO desk until 2009; later records answer to the Freedom of Information Act 2000, earlier files sit at the National Archives. 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.
