Short encounter with space craft on my way into my parking lot area.

About five years ago, I was on my way into my apartment complex, and in the parking area, a space ship pulled up, and hovered a few feet off the ground, at about thirty feet from me. It had a large fuselage, and at the top, there were a wing on each side that came out from the craft at the top of the fuselage about twenty five or so feet, and then took a sharp 90 degree downward bend extending about 15 feet. The fuselage was not round but it was more like a boat hull but not noticeably rounded at the bottom, either.

From the bottom of the craft to the top of the fuselage, it must have been between about thirty and forty or so feet and it must have been sixty to seventy feet to possibly eighty feet in length. There was arching violet to purple colored electricity all over the hull and wings of the craft but particularly the wings. The electricity reminded me of the kind you see in a TESLA coil. I could feel, smell, and hear the noises of the exhaust gasses as the ship hovered. There was a hatchway, a debarking/embarking stairway passage door, and there was a man about six feet tall standing in the hatchway. The hatchway was at the bottom of the fuselage, and behind him, you could see a staircase going up to a higher deck inside the ship. He just sort of looked at me, and I looked back. I didn't act surprised, and in another instant, the ship zipped away.

NUFORC Note:

Date may be approximate. Report is well written, but we wonder, nevertheless, whether it is a serious-minded report. Genuine UFO's generally are not reported to have wings. PD
