Interesting experience. Thanks for sharing.I've seen several. The first one as a Boy In Rural Pa. I was standing on the road behind our house, scanning the Hillside of a newly seeded strip mine patch toward evening around Mid September. I was looking for the huge deer herd that had been having a feast nightly. This hillside was about 5 miles away. There was a Gap between two Hillsides . As I scanned the area with my Dad's Navy sea Binoculars (50X10) I saw something up in the air, just hovering it was sort of dark. Not a Plane, definitely not a Helicopter. It was shaped squarish on the bottom and sort of dome shaped on top. I watched this thing for about a minute it didn't move just sat there in the sky. All of a sudden it just dipped below the Hillside to the left FAST.
Now Lately, I've see some strange things from the back Deck of my home at night. Last summer I saw some strange lights that were attached to a long squarish object that was hovering silently just south of Martinsburg Wva. Yeah I know there is an ANG Base that flies all sort of aircraft including the giant cargo planes which make a lot of noise & Im familiar with the aircraft they have, see 'em & hear 'em all the time. This made no sound, it seemed to go up and down while hovering had two reddish lights on each end two white ones in the middle. Just hovered, no sound. Looked like it was above I 81 which is about 6 miles east of me. I called a friend and told him to look out his front porch. He did and saw the object clearly as it moved out of my view. He said it looked like a "fishstick" had the two off red lights and two white ones which then went out ad the two reds remained but dimmed. The thing went north then east towards Maryland. I got some footage of this which I will try to post when I have some time.
ABout three weeks ago I went out on the back deck again just before 10 Pm, clear and cold. I seen a set of lights Near Gerrardstown Wva about 2 miles away which I thought was a helicopter hovering. No Noise very still, a helicopter doesn't hover like that. There was on red light on top a VERY bright white light in the middle and a red light below . Not blinking. Imagine an " I "shaped object just sat there and the glow from that white light was substantial....I thought the "night sun" from a Police helicopter but there was no "beam" downwards which is usually the case with police air craft searching for someone. I call the wife, she comes outside says "What is That? That don't look like a helicopter" I went to get my cell phone to take a pix and call the same friend as before but She said
"Its moving" It moved to the side and we could both see it was D shaped with the 3 lights on front. It gained altitude going east fairly fast then shut down the two red lights.
Make of it what you will.
