Observer
Name Hilary G
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was travelling south on A1M as a passenger just after Leeming Bar. I may not have got it exact on the map. It appeared on the left and I watched it through the passenger window then turned and saw it through the rear window of the car before it disappeared. It was really low.
