Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Vancouver, WA, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Round shape flying across evening sky for about four minutes.

The shape of what was seen was round. It appeared white to one of us, but the other thought it was orange, possibly from the sun reflection. It was quite a bit above a jet plane that we watched come from the south and crossed above the plane’s path. The plane was at about 25,000 feet that was flying in a northwest direction. The UFO was at about 50,000 feet and moved without any sign of white streaks from the engines. The skies were clear and cloudless. The jet plane left a white trail, and we watched this plane for two to three minutes. Another plane was traveling perpendicular to the first plane, and also left a white trail.

The time was approximately 19:50, when we watched an UFO coming from the north and moved southeast for about 45 seconds and then turned south for about minute. It seemed to pause for about 20 to 30 seconds in one spot, and then it headed east for approximately one minute. The UFO seemed to pause again and then continued east until we couldn’t see it anymore.
