Hi John;
|
||
|
|
This sounds very similar to a sighting I had in Hartselle a few months ago. I
|
||
|
|
'ran it up the pole' by writing to some Hartselle Users here on the Frontier
|
||
|
|
but nothing came of it and I dismissed it as an aircraft. Now I'm not too
|
||
|
|
sure.
|
||
|
|
The date, unfortunately, is unknown since I had dropped reporting the object
|
||
|
|
but probably occured 2-3 months ago. Kathy was driving South on Hwy 31
|
||
|
|
through the town of Hartselle in North central Alabama. I was reading a mag
|
||
|
|
in the passenger side when a metallic reflection directly in front of and up
|
||
|
|
caught my eye. I glanced up at it and saw a fairly small object vigorously
|
||
|
|
reflecting sunlight and shaped somewhat like a 'crooked, bent finger'. I
|
||
|
|
went back to reading when it dawned on me that something wasn't right. It had
|
||
|
|
no tail section and wasn't going quite right for a normal plane. Too much
|
||
|
|
reflection like it was rotating, spinning, etc. I looked back up just to see
|
||
|
|
the object apparently turn. The metallic reflection was replaced by a small
|
||
|
|
dark circle which in a space of 2 seconds closed in on itself and the entire
|
||
|
|
object disappeared.
|
||
|
|
This occured app. 3pm. Sky was sunny with some high Cirrostratus in the
|
||
|
|
Western Sky. I estimate the object height at 2500 to 3000 feet. Jet aircraft
|
||
|
|
contrails was observed at app. 10000 ft. + where the condensation level was.
|
||
|
|
This object created no contrail and was certainly no small light plane. The
|
||
|
|
object was observed for a total of perhaps 10 secs. The sky was clear and
|
||
|
|
blue in the background and when it disappeared it left without a trace.
|
||
|
|
Jerry.
