|---|---|
| Name | Tom C |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | At first I thought it was a plane, but noticed it was traveling in an odd direction. It quickly brightened, and then winked out. Waited for sound, but didn't hear anything. It's still possible it was an aircraft, but seemed very high, and very bright. |
