I am not certain about the date, but I know it was during the week, mid-July, 2016. I woke at about 3:30am-4:00am, and as I was trying to go back to sleep, I heard someone in my home walking around (I lived with my parents, at the time, and this was normal). I heard someone disable the house alarm, walk downstairs, and out the front door. By the sound of the footsteps, I knew it was my father. When I heard him open the front door, I became alarmed and I went outside to see him standing outside, looking east towards a nearby small municipal airport. The airport, at the time, was closed as it is not a 24 hour controlled field. There was a steady, blinking light on the horizon line toward the airport. It was a very steady pulse, like on a timer or similar to a beacon on an aircraft. I have spent many years studying aircraft and it was not flying in a normal flight pattern; it was too close to the horizon line. My father was alarmed, thinking it was a plane that was going to crash. So, we got into our vehicle and went toward the light, trying to find out where it was going to land (or crash). We were parallel with it, and it was several miles away from where we were. The light was still blinking, pulsing, and it was steady. We were passing through some brush, and we lost sight of it. Then, we saw the same steady light in front of us, way up in the sky, behind some clouds. The pulsing light mixed in with what appeared to be lightning. At no point did I feel alarmed, scared, or anything else. We did not lose time. However, I find it peculiar that my father woke up in the early morning to some strange, pulsing light. It was over 4 years before he spoke of that incident. I cannot believe that it was a normal aircraft, and like i said, at no point did I ever feel threatened.
