Reports Report 2789a (Event 2789-2017)

Observer
Name Dave W
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks This one was VERY FAST and had a fire trail, almost like a burning aircraft, but it was moving at such a high rate of speed that no structural craft could have possibly endured such speed and remain in one piece, it would have broke into several pieces (in my opinion).
