  ANOTHER UFO SIGHTING IN CENTRAL FLORIDA

  On Friday, November 9, 1997, at 8:45 p.m.. Richard L. reported, "Friends and I looked up to
  see what we thought was a meteor approaching from the northeast. Suddenly it gouted
  orange/red flames. A moment (passed) and more gusts of flames. It lit up the craft--looked
  disk-shaped."

  The group was in Orlando, Florida (population 128,394), approximately 229 miles (366
  kilometers) north of Miami. He added, "Then, after a few moments, it turned and headed
  north-northeast. It shot off a few more gouts of flame, then flew off till it became a speck of light
  in the distance. The craft was one light--yellowish-white. No running lights as would be seen on a
  plane or a helicopter." (USENET Item)

  TRIANGULAR-SHAPED UFO SEEN IN EASTERN GEORGIA

  On Wednesday, November 5, 1997, at 6:30 p.m., Curtis F. was at his home in Augusta,
  Georgia (population 47,532), a city on the Savannah River bordering South Carolina,
  approximately 151 miles (142 kilometers) east of Atlanta. All at once, he "heard a loud roaring
  noise."

  "The noise gew to such an intensity that he thought a jet was about to crash. Looking out the
  window, Curtis saw a distant flying light. As he watched, the unknown light broke apart. One
  triangular-shaped portion with flashing red and white lights flew away to the southeast--the other
  part, also with lights, flew off to the north."

  Curtis "could not ascertain its shape or color. The larger object was observed for a minute before
  it disappeared, the smaller for only five seconds. Both continued to travel horizontally and at
  approximately jet speed." (See MUFON Skywatch Investigations #45. Thanks to George A.
  Filer and John Thompson of MUFON for this report.)
