An account in Corrèze, France

On January 11, 1979, at around 6:45 a.m., a witness spotted from a window an object that intrigued him. Above a road, an oval object was moving without making any noise. This object had, on its lower part, six fixed lights, red and green in color. In the center, a yellow light emitted a strong glow. This object moved from east to west at a reduced speed. According to the investigation, the witness had seen a twin-engine FBOOM airliner that landed at 6:42 a.m. and took off again at 6:59 a.m. from the nearby Brive airfield.
