AI-Generated Summary
A civilian reported a multi-colored UFO in Columbus, Ohio, on February 4, 1969. The Air Force investigation was closed as 'insufficient data' after the witness failed to return the required follow-up questionnaire.
This document contains a record of a UFO sighting reported by a civilian in Columbus, Ohio, on February 4, 1969, at 9:07 p.m. The witness described observing a blue object featuring green, white, and red lights. Following the sighting, the witness contacted the Columbus International Airport, where they were informed that no airplanes were in the area at that time. The witness subsequently wrote to the Department of the Air Force on February 5, 1969, to inquire if there were any objects or airplanes in the area. The Air Force responded on February 13, 1969, via Major James H. Aikman, stating that they could not offer an explanation without further information. The Air Force provided the witness with a questionnaire (AF Form 117) and directed them to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base for further investigation. The project record indicates that the case was ultimately classified as having insufficient data for evaluation because the requested AF Form 117 was not returned by the witness as of April 15, 1969.
The observer sighted a blue object with green, white and red colored lights.
