| Name | Glen L |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It came from above like a burning flame coming out of orbit as I was taking a selfie from about a 60 degree angle. It went from east to west and burnt out in front of us. It was closer to us than an airplane i flew today on an introduction to flying lesson. |
