Sighting Report: Forsberg, Lundström, and Andersson, Trehörningen, 1946

This document contains witness accounts recorded by F. Johansson on September 16, 1946, regarding an unidentified aerial phenomenon observed in Trehörningen, Umeå parish. The report details the observations of three individuals: Forsberg, Johan Martin Holger Lundström, and Anders Tycko Andersson. Forsberg observed an object passing at a distance of approximately 100 meters. He described it as dark in color, resembling a large bird, measuring about one meter in length and one meter in width between the wingtips. He noted that the object did not shine and emitted no visible exhaust. Lundström, a laborer, corroborated Forsberg's account and added that he heard a strong 'blowing sound' as the object approached from the east, flying over the treetops of a hill south of a gravel pit. He observed the object moving at high speed over Lake Trehörningen, where it made a slight course correction to the south. Due to the speed of the object, the sun's glare, and tree cover, he lost sight of it but believed it may have landed in the lake as it appeared to be descending. Andersson provided a statement similar to the others. Both Forsberg and Lundström confirmed upon questioning that they had never seen a similar phenomenon before or since. The document references two sketches, labeled as Appendix 1 and Appendix 2, created by Forsberg and Lundström respectively, to illustrate the form of the object.
