| Name | Kim M |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I’m not sure did I correctly placed where I saw this fireball. I’m hopeful I will be able to see it before I click end. There was no tail and the shape of it through my windshield made it appear as if it had wings on either side. It did not have a precisely defined shape, but it almost looked similar to the visual of looking at a hang glider or a flying bird straight on, but with less thickness in the center. |
