Yellow, round object with no other lights seen in Purdy, Wa.

Travelling home on Highway 16 I noticed what I thought was a helicopter coming towards me at about 1,000 a.g.l. On second look the yellow color of the craft was unlike anything I've seen.

I looked out the window of the truck to get a look at it from behind and still only saw a yellow color plus a little darker color in the center. There were no position lights, anti-collision lights or any other light. The speed of the craft was similar to a helicopter. Heading was south to south west.

Visibility was great this evening and sun had set.

The yellow color was constant from when I first saw it to seeing it pass.

The yellow color was similar to the color of a fire.

I'm a pilot with about 360 hours. Flightpath was the same altitude and heading.
