Reports Report 3638vs (Event 3638-2014)

Observer
Name Pete B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Although I have indicated the "fireball" was as bright as the moon, it appeared to have a distinct blue halo. I live near Trudeau International Airport, but this was no aircraft. I am very familiar with aircraft takeoffs and landing patterns. Had this been an aircraft it would have been in very serious trouble.
