Project 10073 Record — Orlando, Florida, 11 November 1966

This document contains a collection of records regarding a UFO sighting reported by a civilian in Orlando, Florida, on the evening of November 11, 1966. The witness, along with her husband, observed a strange object with red, green, and flashing white lights while traveling on the South Orange Blossom Trail. The object was described as moving slowly at the altitude of landing aircraft, then later appearing stationary before accelerating at an 'unbelievable speed' and disappearing. The witness noted that the object made no sound and appeared round. Following the report, the Foreign Technology Division of the Air Force Systems Command initiated an inquiry with the FAA Control Tower at Hemdon Airport in Orlando. The FAA responded on January 27, 1967, stating that no such sighting had been reported to their tower and that no aircraft were known to be operating in the area with non-standard lighting. Additionally, the Air Force investigated the possibility of the object being the Goodyear blimp, but confirmed that the blimp was in a hangar in Miami, Florida, on the night of the incident. The official conclusion recorded on the Project 10073 form is 'Aircraft(possible)'.
