| Name | Andrew R |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | While near the rome airbase, this didn’t behave like any aircraft I have seen nor a solar reflection off a craft. It appeared suddenly, bright as a street light but way too high, seemed to dive straight down around 10 degrees of arc with a little bright piece coming off, and then winked out. |
