Velson Noord (Netherlands)

Sighted on Wednesday 22. August 2007
Reported on
Shape: Light | Duration: 10 minutes
Source:

2 bright orange lights followed by a 3rd, heading south to north then disappearing into the sky. Velson noord, Netherlands.I saw 2 bright orange lights (followed a minute later by a 3rd) coming from an approximate south, heading north along the same route as the airplanes landing at Schipol airport. Once they had just passed overhead they seemed to stop moving in that direction and slowly started to fade, so I assumed that they were going straight up into the sky. The 3rd one did exactly the same. Whilst they were still clearly visable at least 2 airplanes came within quite a close range. They were all a bright orange colour with no other lights that I could see. The time of the event that night is an approximate estimation.
