I have just gone out to bring some fresh milk from our garage . It is very dark with no street lights visible . I noticed what I thought was an aeroplane coming towards our area (we are on the flight path for both Leeds Bradfrod and Manchester airport) so thought nothing of it . It had a mixture of green and red lights but there was no immediate noise . As I came our of the gargage after getting the milk the "aircraft " had got closer but when I looked it was flipping over so my immediate thought was that it was in trouble especially as there still wasnt any noise. as it flipped over a row of really bright white lights became visible and the whole think changed direction very quickly and at this point I realised this was no ordinary passenger plane. As it turned there was a very loud wooshing sound and beams of white light were now coming from it with a bit of a lazer like affect . it moved away at quite a speed but seemed to be flipping over all the time . ! The whole think happned very quickly and I am writing this straight away as I have not seen anything like this before . There may be some military planes in the area but that is not common here and there may be some other explanation but the noise was like nothing I have heard before ...and the lights were extremely bright
