| Name | Matt M |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | A New York touch down is inaccurate. It would have actually touch down in Russell Memorial Field, Nashua NH if it didnt fizzle out 100 feet from ground. It was close enough that i could hear the fizzle, and light light reflections off the trees. It was very bright with a long flame trail. |

| Remarks | There was a trail of flames that followed the burning source that stretched across my field of vision. It was close enough to hear the fizzling clearly. If it didnt burn out 100 ft from the ground it would have landed in the field. |
