Filled out at mufon headquarters with witness on the phone by field investigator l. flechtner #18809 on march 2nd, 2017 ---------------------------------------------------------------- while looking out my bedroom window, in the morning, i saw a bright white light two days in a row. it was a perfect white sphere and it was the size of a pea at arms length. it didn't move, just hovered, and after a while when i looked again it hadn't moved, a star would have moved a little across the sky. i looked again and it was totally gone. not like a star. it was overcast but the sighting was below cloud level. the light appeared to be about 2,000 feet in the air. it was about a mile away and over the bare trees, a clearing, and the mountain. in the summer i would not be able to see ii because of the leaves of the trees. i have experience with small aircraft so i am aware of the flight path from the local airport and this was not an airplane. two or three nights later i was looking out my back window in the evening and i thought i saw an airplane coming toward the house. it was the size of a 182 cessna. then i realized it wasn't a plane. the bottom of the craft was almost totally lit up. from just a foot in from each wing and the fuselage. the craft came towards the house and then turned around and passed overhead again. it came from the south to the southeast. the lights on the craft were unwavering and white. after this sighting i called nick redfern to discuss it. i worked with bud hopkins for many years and hadn't had a sighting for twenty years. thought i was done with the sightings.
