Classification of Distant Encounter is usually
an incident involving an object more than 500
feet from the witness. At night it is
classified as a "nocturnal light" (NL) and
during the day as a "daylight disc" (DD). The
size of the object or the viewing conditions
may render the object in greater detail but
yet not qualify the sighting as a Close
Encounter which is an object within
500'. |

7:30 p.m. Three USAF officers and two civilians
saw (two) white lights fly abreast at 100 mph. 15
mins. (Berliner) Project Blue Book evaluation:
UNIDENTIFIED.
Although this case is listed as a distant encounter
rather than sighting from an aircraft, two officers in
an aircraft preparing for landing saw the objects at a
glance. The details of the incident come from the
other three witnesses on the ground, all of which saw
the two UFOs off to the NW heading SE-NW.Fran Ridge: Detailed reports and documents reports/520916warnerrobbins_report.htm (Dan Wilson & Bill Schroeder) |
