Vaucluse, France · 1993-07-02 · from the GEIPAN archive
On July 2, 1993 at around 10:45 p.m., two witnesses observed white luminous balls forming 2 V shapes. These shapes remained stationary for a few seconds before disappearing at very high speed. These observations were confirmed by the witnesses' spouses. No noise was perceived, the weather was clear, and the observation lasted about ten seconds. No other information could be gathered about this phenomenon. This case, previously classified as D, was re-examined: observations with similar characteristics were investigated and classified as A in August 2009 as the observation of the Patrouille de France flight: /geipan/actualites/13082009-Des-PAN-en-formation-dans-le-Vaucluse-en-Juillet-2008.html This case is classified as A as the observation of the passage of the Patrouille de France.
