It was very eery the way it moved and kept coming back and only going so slow.

We were sitting outside having a game in the back yard, we all quickly glanced up as something reflected into our eyes almost stopping our vision for a bit. There was a triangualr (flat equilateral triangle) craft moving across the sky, we live next to an airfield to we didn't know what to make of it. So we carried on playing our game. Approx 14mins after we saw it it came back againbut goin the other way, it would occasionally float accross and then vanish again, but this time it was closer. We rung the airfield and they said that there was only something reflecting and they couldnt make out what it was.We started to get very nervous and scared so we went inside and observed outside whil watching t.v, nothing happened until about 17mins later when the t.v went off, the phone started ringing and the fax came through with all types of wierd stuff, I have the fax to proveit, it sends chills just looking at it, our cellphones went dead and we saw it again but this time it was hovering right over our house, it slowly picked up speed flew over some trees and we never saw it again. We live in the country so there are a few valleys it could have gone down and hidden because we only saw a group of jets fly over the valleys apparently doing a practice run, these pilots didnt look rookie though, and it seemed strange the flew over just as the craft vanished beyond our sitings, I dont know what to take of this, it happened about a half hour ago, i dont know because we have to reset our clocks. only contact me by email

NUFORC Note:

This report, from a student, is the only one we have received of this alleged sighting. We will request a copy of the fax message the witness alludes to. PD
