| Remarks | A huge round, bright white/yellow, with orange and red edges lit up out of nowhere, then zipped to the left, from east to the northwest. The explosion lit up the yards and trees, etc. As if a police car with it's lights on were right next to me. So cool! I thought a plane exploded mid air! I also did see small aircraft very close. Contact Sportys pilots for more information. Clermont County Airport. |
