1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,000 The entire crew and some of the passengers watched this object for 18 minutes and it 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:18,000 lengthened the station alongside us some distance away and I think there's no question that 3 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,000 it was no illusion and that it was being intelligently handled. 4 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:29,000 We'd served dinner to the passengers and we were serving drinks and we noticed there was some 5 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:35,000 confusion in the cabin. The passengers were all looking out at the port side of the aircraft. 6 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:42,000 I went to look through to see what was going on, look through the window and there we saw these 7 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:50,000 seven objects. The one very large one which was black and solid looking, it kept changing shape 8 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:57,000 when we first saw it, it was pear shaped and then it was stretched out like a cigar and then 9 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:03,000 like an inverted telephone. I know it sounds ridiculous but it did look absolutely solid. 10 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:10,000 There were six little ones applying information, sometimes three in front and three behind 11 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:17,000 or five in front and one behind but always six with changing formation. The passengers of course 12 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:24,000 asked me what it was and I had no idea. I went on the flight deck and asked Captain Howard 13 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:30,000 and I got on the flight deck, Captain Howard and the technical crew were also all looking through 14 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:37,000 the window and when I asked Captain Howard what it was he simply said, I don't know but for 15 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000 good and sake keep the passengers happy.
