An account in Corrèze, France

On May 11, 1977 at around 11:20 PM, a person notices the presence of two enormous luminous balls located to the east of their house. At 50 meters above the ground, they are motionless and strongly illuminate the ground. After one minute and before the complete disappearance of the phenomenon, the witness will hear a sound of helicopter blades and will see a very intense yellow light illuminating the area. No other testimony will be collected on this phenomenon, for which we lack information.
