Name | Catherine L |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | The bright light caught my eye, so I turned my head to the right as I was driving and saw what looked almost like a bright green flare ‘falling’ at speed through the sky. There was no real smoke trail that I saw (which in my mind discounted the possibility of it being a flare - well, that and the fact that the Midlands are completely landlocked! Plus we are close to Birmingham airport in that direction so it is very unlikely that flares would have been set off over there). |
