This is a very true and testimonial event that happened in the town I lived in for 3 years. On July 13th or the 14th 2003 around between 8-8:30 pm in Licking county, Ohio, I walked outside my home and the very first thing I did was look up into the sky like I always do to see anything out of the ordinary.This time I got my wish! As I walked down my porch steps,I looked up. Then I turned to my left towards my dog,I pet him everytime I go outside.That's when I looked up again as ususal,This time I saw an airplane up in the sky.It wasn't one of them small 4 passenger but one of them huge airliners that carry abut 100 I suppose?...Anyway,I have never in my life seen an airplane fly so low to the ground before and that alone caught my attention right away.If I wanted to I could have counted all the windows on one side if I felt like it but seeing it so low below the clouds and closer to the ground was more interesting than that. As the plane was flying on by,I noticed this tiny white dot come out of nowhere up from behind it.As the plane was moving south bound this white dot came into better view for me.To make a better description what I saw, This white turned into a 3-layer grey oval shapped ball of light.It literally followed along side this huge plane for about I'm guessing 10-15 miles?I estimated how long a mile is on the ground then took that measurement in the sky and calculated there.I watched them both fly off till I could no longer see either of them.This grey oval shaped ball of light,I'm guessing very hard here,was about 1/4 % size of that plane itself.Uusually I can hear airplanes,helicoptors in the sky,even many miles before they are even close to my area.This plane that was side-tailed by an unknown flying object was about 2-3 miles from the ground up.And I heard NO sound what so ever period.The only reason I even happen to witness this event was bacause I am always looking up in the sky dan and night for anything out of the ordinary,if it wasn't for my interest in ufos and aliens,I would have probably not seen none of this. This grey ball of light never moved out of track while near the plane.It stayed in a very straight line all the way along till out of sight.the distance between the ball of light and the plane was probably between 70-100 feet.neither the plane or the object made any sound.My strong opinion that the grey ball of light wasn't a missle cause the object would have smacked right into the plane therefore causing an explosion,There was no impact and the object was like I said a few good feet away.It wasn't no cloud cause I have never seen in my life a cloud so round,grey or actually move so perfectly in a line like that,plus at speed? I don't think so.Not to mention that day there were hardly no clouds in the sky to begin with.Myabe a couple here n there but that's it.It wasn't no shadow cause there was no ground to bounce off from and the plane was no where near the shape of this object. Basically that day I saw for the first time an actual ufo.And there was even an airplane right along side with it to know for sure that object wasn't an airplane!((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate.
