This document contains a UAP sighting report from February 1967, involving an 80-year-old resident of Glendale, California. The witness, who identified themselves as a manufacturer of X-ray equipment, reported observing a single, wingless object moving slowly in a North-West direction over the Verdugo Hills. The witness described the object as being off-white, roughly the size of a Boeing 707, and featuring a 'box-like house' on its back, while noting it lacked windows and made no sound. The witness estimated the object's speed at 15 to 25 miles per hour at an altitude of 500 to 1000 feet. The witness attempted to verify the sighting with local authorities and Lockheed personnel but found no other witnesses. In April 1967, Colonel James C. Manatt of the Foreign Technology Division at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base responded to the witness, stating that the information provided was insufficient for a scientific evaluation and requesting the completion of a formal FTD Form 164. The official conclusion recorded on the project record form was that there was no data presented to indicate the object could not have been an aircraft.
Looked like a wingless plane; could have been as long as the 707, maybe longer, Had no wings; box like house on the back.
