| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Samuel F |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It seemed to be falling almost vertically, I believe it landed within a couple of hundred yards of my position, I would class myself as fairly good at judging distance and airborne objects due to my job in aviation. It carried on burning almost to the ground, burnt out maybe 50 ft above the ground |
