Small Metallic Red Tri-Orb UFO Viewed Descending Towards Seattle from AA Flight Passenger
As my flight from Seattle/Tacoma International airport to Dallas was making its initial ascent, I observed a very odd object that was descending below us headed generally NW and at a rapid pace. I was sitting in the first-class cabin on the left side of the aircraft looking out of my window. The object was a single unit that looked like three metallic red round orbs that were connected. It flashed across my view and seemed to be moving at a downward angle.
During my frequent air travel, I have seen multiple small aircraft passing below my view, and they have always been easily identified as small jets or airplanes. This immediately caught my attention as an oddity. I estimate the size to have been about the size of a VW Bug. I can make the estimation of size purely on my perception of distance. Because the red metallic color was so clear, I believe the craft passed no more than 1000 feet below us.
NUFORC Note:
NUFORC Notte: We spoke via telephone with the source of the report, and we found him to be quite sober-minded. We suspect that he is an exceptionally capable witness. PD
