Summary
Observation of a triangular object flying at low altitude without noise.
Detailed descriptionOn August 27, 1997, around 21:45 three witnesses returning from work observe the evolution of a triangular object (or rather round according to testimony) which moves at low altitude and in complete silence. The machine was equipped with two large headlights and while arriving above the witnesses one of the headlights was directed a few moments on them. One of the witnesses observed two silhouettes inside a cockpit. No explanation was given to this observation which could have been a helicopter if the witnesses had not insisted on absolute silence in the movement of the object.
