Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | I was watching phoenix sky harbor's air traffic, as the flight path was right over my house that evening, and while watching an aircraft the streak appeared with a flash with fragments in front and higher altitude (assumption). I know the precise time because I called the local news station two minutes after witnessing the event and they had no other callers. |
