Dear Sir

Just within the last few weeks some friends and I have been studying the store. During this time we have spotted very unusual aircraft that appear to be round diskular shapes and appear to travel much faster than sets commercial aircraft, and act much different than satellites. The satellites we have operated seem to go clear across the valley and and disappear out of sight at the other end where these unusual fields seem or appear to only 3/3 or 4/4 the way across the valley, stay and go straight up only to go so high that they disappear in space. We are wondering if you would …

unusual round diskellers aircraft could be. One of my friends has spotted one that looked just like a bright light going across about the sky and then it turned and went straight up through space and disappeared it took 1 to 2 minutes going to across the sky and then shot straight up into space and disappeared in 1 to 3 seconds completely out of sight.

Yours sincerely
