11. BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS Object was described as a jinking spot of light, moving across the zenith with rather incredible speed. Appeared a glowing white light, rather than as an illuminated object. It crossed from about ten deg apart the zenith to disappearance at 45 deg below the zenith due North, within 5-10 seconds. Object seemed to have tail feathers. It was overhead on a fast and generally an unusual combination of natural illumination of a jet's bright after-burner flame.
