A B-36 aircraft was in flight in the vicinity of Spokane,

0913Z time. The light was
at an altitude of approximately 7,000 feet on a southeast course
circling and rising as it proceeded. It was visually observed for
a period of three to five
minutes. The B-36 made 180 degree descending turn toward the light
