What happened

Driving to work, Squyres saw a dull aluminum object like two meat platters joined face to face, about 75 feet long, hovering ten feet above a field 100 yards from the road and rocking slightly. Through a front window lit blue he saw the head and shoulders of a man; a row of small propellers spun along the rim. It rose straight up with a sound like a covey of quail taking off, and plants beneath it were found disturbed.

Witnesses

Radio station musician William Squyres
