Large, silent triangle-shaped craft over Alaska
October, 10, 2006 - Knik / Point McKenzie, Alaska, United States
From the witness: " It was as at least as big as a 747. I put down my window and there was no engine noise. I tried to turned off my radio. I hit the off button twice and the radio came back on so I turned off my car. Still no engine noise from the craft which at this point was about 300 ft. to 600 ft. in altitude and approximately 1/4 of a mile from me. At this point the craft turned right. That's when the outline of a triangle shaped craft was visible because there was a whitish glowing light. That's when I knew this was not like any aircraft I have ever seen before." View full report
