AI-Generated Summary
A 13-year-old witness reported a slow-moving, delta-wing object in Rydall, Pennsylvania, on February 13, 1963. The Air Force closed the case as having insufficient data after the witness failed to respond to follow-up inquiries.
This document contains a Project 10073 record card and supporting correspondence regarding a UFO sighting reported by a 13-year-old witness in Rydall, Pennsylvania, on February 13, 1963. The witness reported observing a reddish-colored object at approximately 6:05 PM. Initially, the witness believed the object was Mars, but later observed it moving higher in the sky and increasing in size to about one-quarter the size of the moon. The witness, who was with their mother, described the object as a delta-wing craft with no fuselage, moving slowly toward the east with no sound. The witness contacted Willow Grove Air Base to inquire if they had any delta-wing planes that could fly as slowly as the object described, but was told they did not. The Air Force attempted to follow up with the witness to resolve inconsistencies in the report, but received no reply. Consequently, the case was filed as having insufficient data for evaluation.
It appeared to me to have little or no fuselage, but was rather just two delta wings.
