Incident: 206

Sgt Wright stated he was watching some cloud formations in the North- east portion of the sky when he observed a white speck materialize and lengthen out. At first he thought it was sky-writing but as it con- tinued to advance he thought it appeared as a whole unit. Object pursued a northwestern direction and entered a very large cloud formation. As the object emerged on the northwest by north side the object appeared larger and he was able to get a clearer view. The object appeared snow- white. At one time Sgt Wright was able to obtain a side-view impression It seemed as if the side surface was broken by windows. The nose, too, was short in comparison to the length. There was definitely a wing formation - low wing and very short in comparison to the length of the fuselage. Sgt Wright perceived the object six times thru the cloud formation, in various attitudes - see attached drawings. Sgt Wright in his drawing estimates the length of the fuselage to be 300 feet. However, he stated that it would be impossible for him to estimate the length of the object if the craft was using a rear type of propulsion and utilizing a fuel that left a white exhaust. Fuselage apparently had no tail assembly. It appeared as a straight body tapering off from directly above the wings to a very small point.

Evaluation: D-5 - Sgt Wright's character and his honesty are questionable according to the interrogating officer.
