    Default Ufo Sighting In Poole Dorset ?

    I Have Never Reported This To Anyone Before And Not Told Anyone Other Than Family And Friends ,so Here Goes.
    It Was About 5 Years Ago And I Was Doing Some Extra Work At Night For A Firm Called Macro's In Poole Dorset England.
    We Used To Knock Off Work At 23.00 Hrs. I Suppose It Was About 23.10 And My Colleagues Were In The Car Park About To Leave. It Was A Clear Night And Cold,no Clouds And It Was Near A Housing Estate So It Was Quiet.someone Said Look At That And In The Sky There Was A Formation Of Lights Coming From The Broadstone Area And Going Towards Poole Town Centre.one Person Dismissed It And Said It Was The Post Going Out To France.everyone Else Said No To That As These Light's Were Red In Colour And Quite Low,about As Low As A Light Aircraft Would Be. Now This Is The Scary Bit,there Was No Sound At All.we Stood In Silence And Watched Them Go Without A Sound.
    I Would Say There Was About 7 Lights In A V Formation. It Was Seen By Other People In The Poole Area And Was Even In Our Local Advitiser Paper. Nothing More Has Been Seen Since, Can Anyone Shed Any Light On This. Were These Ufo's Or Was It Something Else. At The Time I Was Close To Crapping My Pants,it Was Just The Way They Went By Silently And At Quite A Pace. The Light's Were Solid Red Not Flashing.

    thats interesting, there are people on these forums who have also had experiences similar to this so you arent on your own (im not one mind). what you describe- the lack of sound, the v formation and the solid lights- sounds like things ive heard before. although from what youve described i cant say anything for sure it does sound interesting so cheers for sharing it :thumbs what did your mates think of this? you say it was in the local paper, i dont suppose you either have a copy of the piece that could be scanned or remember the general outline of the piece? any further information you could provide would be of interest.

    Try the local library for back issues?
    The thing you saw in the sky, may or could have been Military Hardware ie:
    Black-opps?
    I have evidence that UFO's were being made in the early 1930's by a few countries!!!
    This is 70years later. I'm not saying it wasn't Aliens and I'm not saying it was!

    Event Details :

    My wife and i where walking home up the high street one evening late. There was a break between some houses, which looked over trees and farmland where i spotted a triangular object hoveringabove the trees at approx 300 yards from us.I said to the wife can you see what i can see to which she confirmed yes.We watched this object which was triangular in shape black in colour and had three very dim red disk lights underneath at each point for a few minutes, no noise could be heard this was no aeroplane that i no of and to my knowledge no other witnesses.The reason i have entered this report is because the picture your anonymous Glasgow man sent in is almost identicle in shape to what we saw in the 80s

    hi you would have seen them testing the new stealth plane.
    this sometimes looks what you have said and comes with a escort normal by blackhawk helicopters as they can run silent mode and can not be heared

    a lot of people dont know this but northwales is a hot spot for ufos at night

    black hawks helicopters in silent mode? - i mean they do have "whisper" engines right, but they surely are not completely silent.

    Were These Ufo's Or Was It Something Else
    sorry to be so pedantic but they were certainly ufos, since that just means unidentified flying object and that is certainly what it was.

    craig makes an interesting point, in that it could quite possibly have been them testing something - buy why in the middle of the night?

    so that people dont see anything and cause a fuss?

    well by random coincidence last night at about 11:20 it was clear sky and i was walking along the road, after leaving a big group of people who were all outside. i was with a friend, and we saw a big shebang of teachers comming out of the pub at the time. that is like 100 people all outside

    if they had waited just three hours only drunk people would still be outside, and they could have avoided being seen much more easily

    aliens on the other hand wouldnt know this, but there could be hundreds of other things that it could have been. i dont personally belive in aliens but i try to keep an open mind about it, espeically since the odds of another planet supporting life are quite high.

    Because i take Cragis posts very lightly i checked up on the Blackhawk's... It seems to do run very quietly.... But they are far from silent... The more Rotors the helicopter has the less sound it produces.
