My wife and I were driving home from a trip to Maine. As we drove over the top of Tory Hill on Kearsarge Mt Rd we observed a round white light above and to our left. I'm guessing 800 to 1000 AGL.It appeared to be on an easterly heading but turned to the NE. When it did so, what first appeared as a round light the size of a pencil eraser, became two vertical rectangles side by side 3 to 4 times as high as wide, with a small divide between them. It also appeared to be climbing in altitude at a 5 degree angle. We lost sight due to the tree line. There were no strobes seen during the event. Continuing homeward I stopped after turning into our driveway to let my wife out to get our mail from the mailbox. At that point a thunderous roar as if a 4 engine piston powered aircraft was illegally low overhead. So loud that everything seemed to shake from the vibrations. I have many hours flying in such aircraft in the Air Force with over 400 in the last of the B29's. The proximity to Kearsarge Mountain in the dark would have been a foolishly low flight for anyone qualified to fly such an aircraft. I hold a commercial pilots license with flight instructors rating now retired and I can assure you the light/lights were not a conventional aircraft.
