[STAMP:] FTD Slip 43 O-329 (TDE) Previous editions of this form may be used.
Observer watched a bright white light that at first appeared to be stationary but then moved off toward the southern sky. The light was compared to a white light on a pole about one mile away. It was also brighter than the bright star in the western sky in the early evenings (Venus). In view of these facts, KC-135 aircraft operated Blytheville AFB and KAFB in the area; that the KC-135 aircraft has a record of causing this type of UFO report; and that the aircraft departed to the south would indicate that the witness could have seen this aircraft and reported it to be a UFO.
