Appearance / Description of Object(s)The object was a flat triangle with 4 lights around the perimeter of the craft one of which was blinking and there was no noise coming from the object. Size of Object(s)I would estimate size of the actual object to be aprox a triangle measuring 50 feet at the "rear" of the triangle. Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeThe object was 300 ft directly above me. Description of Area / SurroundingsJust as your getting towards the center of town right over the two hotels in town. There are no special sites other than a small airplane airport 6 miles outside of town. to the East. Full Description & DetailsWhen heading West on highway 4 coming into the center of town. My girlfriend and I saw an aircraft with bright light hovering in the distance. At first I thought it was just a helicopter, but as we got closer and got directly underneath of it. I was able to see that it was not a helicopter, and was some thing like I have never seen before. It was a Flat Triangle with four lights one of which was blinking. I rolled down my window to get a clear look at the craft, and heard no engine noise. When I directed my girlfriend to turn the vehicle around to get a second look within a 4 sec amount of time that I had no visibility of the sky due to trees from turning on to a residential street; the craft was no where to be found. With wide open sky and clear conditions the craft had disappeared. Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?As a former marine the only craft that could move as this one did is a helicopter, but this was no helicopter after getting close to the object.
