AnomalyOn November 5, 2012 at around 7:30 p.m., two witnesses observe for 1 minute in the sky, a red luminous object with two blinking white lights of hexagonal shape. Given the objective elements presented in the investigation report, namely the light signaling observed and the noise consistent with that of an airplane, the trajectory in line with two nearby airfields in the context of a landing or takeoff near a light aircraft, and the existence of an airfield housing a flying club with light aircraft approved for night flight, we can conclude that the UAP observed by the witnesses is probably a light aircraft. This case is classified as "B" as a probable observation of a light aircraft shortly after takeoff or shortly before landing from or to a nearby airfield.
