Location of Sighting: Edinburgh
Date of Sighting: 26 December 2009
Time: 2000
Witness Name: Lynne and Stuart Smith
Witness Statement: So glad I found this website as I thought me and my husband were going mad. On Boxing Day we saw what we thought was an aeroplane on fire as there was a huge orange glow in the sky, on the flight path making what seemed to be a routine landing. It looked as though there were orange flames and bits dropping off the underside. My husband who is a plane buff opened the patio doors looked at it again and said hand me phone to call the police there is an aeroplane in trouble. On further observation this object started doing manouvres that no aeroplane or helicopter could do, i.e. sharp left/right turns. Watched this for 3/4 minutes and the object then sped off to the centre of Edinburgh heading for Fife. There was no sound whatsoever. Did anyone else see this in the Edinburgh area?
