NUFORC Note:

This report is reminiscent of a missile launch, perhaps out of the U. S. Navy's Wallops Island, VA, Flight Test Facility. We received a number of similarly sounding reports following a double launch of a "Black Brant V" launch at 2358 hrs. (EDT) on 04JL99. Please see entries for that date.
