UFO. United States

One of the most famous cases occurred on the night of July 23-24, 1948, when Clarence Chiles and John Whitted were flying a passenger plane from Houston (Texas) to Boston (Massachusetts). On July 24, at 2:45 a.m., flying over the city of Montgomery, K. Chiles noticed a torpedo-shaped object about 100 feet (30 m) long approaching the aircraft from the front. According to the pilots, the object was moving at a speed of 500-700 miles per hour. Along the object, Whitted distinguished two rows of glowing rectangles-"windows".

One of the passengers, named Clarence McKelvey, was awake and later provided a description of the object, also noting the presence of "windows".

The object flew up and left behind a column of orange fire.

C.S. Chiles and John B. Whitted (pilots). The object resembled a wingless plane, cigar-shaped, about 100 feet long, twice as thick as the B-29, not a single protrusion is visible on the surface. I flew at them, they turned off. he also swerved and swept 700 feet to the right and higher, then lifted his nose and soared into the clouds, releasing a sheaf of flame from which their VS-4 rocked.

There were no wings, it was illuminated from the inside by a bright light, as if magnesium was burning, light from something similar to windows in the cockpit of an airplane.

On the side, a bright dark blue luminous stripe stretched along the entire fuselage, like fluorescent lamps. The exhaust of the flame is reddish orange, lighter at the edges, their length is 30-50 feet, and the brightness increased as they ascended.

The speed is greater than that of a fighter by 1-3.

An hour earlier, an object was seen "throwing out multicolored flames" at the 1st of the Air Force bases-Robins (Georgia).
