SIGHTING: KEY WEST, FL
Witness Testimony
"I lived on a shallow-water marshland in Key West, right opposite to the end of the runway-takeoff from the Key West airport. I knew all of the flight patterns of planes going into & out of this airport from watching them every night. I used to come home from work & relax & have a couple of beers on my back patio, looking across the salt-pond lake & at the planes leaving the airport & looking at the Winter birds migrating from up North down to Cuba, & all that.And familiar with watching all of the Air Force planes from up a few miles North at the Boca Chica air-base. I never believed in UFO's or ever imagined I'd ever see anything like that-It wasn't even in the realm of my mind. I was the harshest critic of UFO's in the world. But, one nite, I was out on my patio on a moonless nite, having my cocktail, & just happened to glance up & see 3 oval/egg-shaped lights rapidly passing overhead, without a sound. They did not shine light out from them, but had a sort of self-contained light. One light in front, with another light behind & outward from the the lead light, so as to make a triangular configuration. Never a sound made. Because the nite was moonless, I was hampered in getting any perspective or depth-conception about how high this thing/these things were, but I could not ascertain any signs that these lights were part of a larger craft or crafts, but I could not swear otherwise. I was instantly stricken with the notion that this thing was completely unlike anything I'd ever seen in my life. It had to be at least a couple hundred feet high, but probably a least a couple thousand feet high, & it streaked off, in this formation or whatever, right across the salt-ponds & I could see it heading straight off the coast of Key West, heading in the direction of Cuba. I sat down in my chair & uttered a couple of ugly oaths, because I knew I'd seen something I didn't want to see & I didn't want to be lumped with those trailer rednecks who see UFO crap down in their pastures.I sat there & poured myself another drink & tried to run down the litany of everything I could think of to convince myself that I hadn't seen what I'd seen, but I just couldn't con myself that way.Naturally, it had no red or green or white running lights that aircraft have, that was one of the first things that I had subconsciencouly looked for but failed to see, that & the fact that the sucker was as silent as a ghost.I still see it in my mind to this day & could paint it, it's so branded in my head.((NUFORC Note: No date provided by witness, who also provides no contact information.
