Remarks Appeared as if it was a headlight of a plane at first with cone of light behind it with rays of light occasionally, eventually light went out and left trail, just small object with red/orange ‘C shaped’ faint light visible in front of it. The Smokey white trail/light persisted for a number of minutes. Gorgeous sight - sorry I didn’t film it!
