Appearance / Description of Object(s)

I could not tell how high it was because I had no reference for it's size, but based on how clearly I could see the bottom of the ship, it seemed it was about a couple hundred feet off the ground and so then seemed about 50 to 60 feet from wing tip to wing tip, and about 10 feet from the nose to the back, getting slightly narrower from the center to the wing tips. Like a huge boomerang flying in the direction of the nose, or center point of the boomerang. I only saw the bottom so I could not tell the height from bottom to top, but seemed relative to the dimensions of a huge, thicker than normal boomerang.

Size of Object(s)

But based on how clearly I could see the bottom of the ship, it seemed it was about a couple hundred feet off the ground and so then seemed about 40 to 50 feet from wing tip to wing tip, and about 10 feet from the nose to the back, getting slightly narrower from the center to the wing tips. Like a huge boomerang flying in the direction of the nose, or center point of the boomerang. If I stretched out my arms it would fit in about 3 or 4 inched betweed my hands.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was an area mainly with complexes/apartments, near the UF Vet School, Shands and the VA Hospital. Which is south of the University of Florida.

Full Description & Details

I'm reporting this now becuase I've read a previous report of a similar UFO sighted in Gainesville a few years ago and now just read the sighting of a very similar UFO seen in Ocala, which is about 30 min south of where I saw this UFO. I was walking to my home from my car after work, about 11:15pm. I was looking up at the sky since it was a clear night and almost full moon. I noticed a plane high in the distance over me, and suddenly something went inbetween me and the plane covering it for a few seconds. It was a ship that was kind of v-shaped, more like a boomerang. It was flying very low and very slow. No sound and no lights. It was so low I could see detail on the bottom of the ship, however there was almost nothing to see, it was smooth, dull light greyish, no openings, seemed metallic. It was almost completly blended in with the sky. If it wasn't because it crossed directly in my sight line while I was looking at the plane, I don't think I ever would have noticed it. I watched it move from north, north west to south, south east. I stared at it for about 1 minute. It was moving in the direction of the moon so I started to think as soon as it gets close to the moons light I will see it very clearly. It then veared off to the west and continued north and did not pass between me and the moonlight. It seemed as if it was aware it could be seen if it conituned moving straight. Hard to explain, it was like I had a feeling it noticed me looking at it. It conitnued on until I could not see it any more.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Definitely not a planet or stars. As for whether it was man made or not, well I don't know. If it is man made, it is not public information or technology. Judging from the feeling I got when I thought I could see it better in the moonlight and it then veared off to not get in the moonlight, I would guess it was not man made.

Witness Background

During the time of the sighting I was a hotel manager, I've since started my own production company and work freelance in film and television.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I've always been interested in UFOs and it is almost routine for me to look up when I'm outside. I have a very good understaning and knowledge base about UFOs. This sighting was my 1st and I guess I was not as excited as I thought I would have been. Not to say I wasn't excited, but I was a lot calmer than I would have guessed.

Other Comments

The interesting thing is that I have read of 2 other sightings describing the same craft, traveling in the same area in the same direction between a period of 4 years.
