What happened
Nick Pope reported that Elliott described "a vast triangular shaped craft" moving at 30-40 mph. It swept a laser-like beam across a field, made a low hum, and was between a C-130 and a Boeing 747 in size. The MoD log records two red lights side by side and a larger flashing red light behind them. The Shropshire Star (March 30, 2013) reports that Elliott later pointed out his sighting came an hour after the one at Cosford, and that he "now believes what he saw was a police helicopter."
