Reports Report 919a (Event 919-2015)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Amar P |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Flash that slowly faded and shrunk in size. Between being in the middle of a turn, the dark sky, the low altitude and buildings and lamp/telephone posts, I was unable to observe it beyond it's fading and apparent dissapearance. The flash was quite large, possibly twice or more the size of any plane/jet, and oval shaped, stretched in the horizontal direction. Here was no flashing to indicate it being a plane, and it was much to bright to be one as well. |
