An account in Seine-et-Marne, France

A person reports, in 2009, successive observations from their home. They testify to the presence and movement of balls of light seen near Charles de Gaulle airport. The witness filmed their observations between 11 p.m. and midnight in the first days of summer, late June 2008 (the date of June 21 is given arbitrarily). The videos show yellow-orange points of light slowly descending toward the ground. Since the witness claims to be observing in the direction of the airspace of Charles de Gaulle airport, these points are probably the landing lights of aircraft approaching that airport. These headlights are visible facing the aircraft up to about 30 km: because of this, on the one hand their color can vary from white to yellow-orange depending on distance and atmospheric turbulence, and on the other hand one can observe simultaneously several aircraft whose distance cannot be estimated, even relative; with the effect of perspective, these points can seem to approach to apparent contact or move away. GEIPAN classifies this case "B" probable observation of aircraft head-on, close to landing. Since the witness gives neither precise dates nor precise observation directions, GEIPAN could not refine the investigation.
