SIGHTING: WASHINGTON, WASHINGTON (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I was on the 8:20pm Flight from Seatac to Walla Walla. We may have left a few minutes early. I was sitting in a window seat looking down on the Cascade Mountains towards the North. About ten to fifteen minutes into the flight is when I had my sighting. Moving very quickly from the right of my view to the left, from East to West was a bright orange orb. This orb moved in a straight line. I looked for any details beyond the light but it did not seem to be attached to a body of anything like a plane. The light did not blink or change in any fashion. I was looking down on the Cascade Mountain range so I know it is not a star because it was below me. The duration of the sighting was three to five seconds. The size of the object was bigger and brighter than that of a star. The object was moving very quickly. If I had to guess it was about 3000 feet below us and the pilot had said we would be flying at an altitude of 19,000 ft. About five minutes later we were flying over I90 close to Ellensburg Washington, the sun was setting but I could still see cars moving along the highway. So when the object was observed I still had plenty of light to make my observations. I asked the person sitting behind me if she had seen anything but she had not. The rest of the flight was pretty normal. Now the odd thing beyond seeing a bright orb was I saw something similar back in March 2014 from my home in Walla Walla. Before the plane took off I had thought wouldn't it be cool to see a UFO again. This is what was on my mind at the time of my sighting."
