Reports Report 92kw (Event 92-2014)

Observer
Name Pam B
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I never saw anything like this! At first, I thought it was a plane crashing, but it had a blue/green tip and then it just disappeared. We live near Islip McArthur Airport on Long Island, NY, and this is not a trajectory that the planes normally would take. It looked more like a free fall at a steep angle. Please keep me posted.
