2nd Sighting, Orange UFO East of Scottsdale Arizona 10/19/2012

As before, the UFO glowed a bright orange and entered the Phoenix area from the East over the Superstition Mountains and stopped over the Native American reservation which is East of Scottsdale Arizona. This second time, the UFO was a little North of where it appeared the first time tonight. As before, the UFO stopped in mid-air for some time and moved around slightly before performing an impossible 180 degree turn and quickly returning East from where it came.

I was able to call nearby family this time, whereas last time they didn't pick up the phone in time. They were able to see the UFO before it left this time, so I increased the number of witnesses to three.

If you can gain access to any weather, visibility, "sunrise", or traffic cameras that point toward the Superstition Mountains and look out across the reservation - you will find footage. It glowed brighter than any stars, and brighter than any aircraft. Specific times were 11:05pm and 11:25pm.

Additionally, the last plane to leave Sky Harbor International Airport in this direction was at 11:05pm. The pilot, seemingly upon seeing the craft, executed a tight turn South. I did not see another plane or helicopter in the air until about 11:45pm. Not even police, and not a single aircraft flew in from the area of the UFO - which was in a flight-lane used as an approach for Sky Harbor.
