BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS

Observer watched three brilliant lights in a V formation travel toward the western sky. It was like a mass of 'brilliant lights'; tops were red, and the bottom was orange. It was about five miles between the lead object and the trailing objects. It looked like orange droplets fell from the tail of the one object.

A test aircraft was on the crew at the time of the sighting. The aircraft was equipped with a glass bottom and fitted with TV cameras and a high intensity infra-red light. This flight was conducted at 2000 feet and the light would have been visible from the ground. The nature of the light combined with clouds in area would produce an eerie effect from ground.
