On 27 November 2013 at 6:00 pm, two people intermittently observe a luminous phenomenon in the sky. The observation lasts 1 hour 30 minutes. This observation takes place in 3 phases: - an observation of a luminous point to the North-East (2 large yellow headlights with a red light in the middle) first stationary, then disappearing behind a building: this is entirely consistent with an airplane or helicopter seen head-on, with its landing lights on. - the observation by the witness's son, who sees a luminous point pass above the house that was "pitching." At 6:02 pm and 6:05 pm, two airplanes are noted flying over the area at high altitude (see Flightradar data, and military radar track on the Geoportail map, in UTC time): helicopter activity is also noted at that moment, between 6:12 pm and 6:30 pm above the high-voltage line located between Quinssaines and Nouhant, 7 km southwest of the observation site. The witness's description is not precise enough to determine which aircraft was actually observed. - for the end of the observation, a very bright point to the South-West, almost stationary for over an hour: this is without a doubt the planet Venus, particularly bright at that time (Magnitude -4.7). The variety in appearance of the photos taken by the witness is explained by inconsistent focus settings, and camera shake at the time of shooting. GEIPAN classifies this case "A": observation of Venus for the end of the observation, and probable observation of airplanes and/or helicopters for the beginning of the observation.
