Major Richmond was f l y i n g a T-33 ( j e t t r a i n e r ) with Captain George Stevenson r i d i n g a s an observer. They were criaising a t 33,000 f e e t a t 462 miles per hour inbound t o Sco t t A i r Force Base and were 138 miles west of the f i e l d when he f i r s t saw t h e cb jec t . We now quote h i s ex- a c t words, a s w r i t t e n down by Ivk. H e r t e l l and including the l a t t e r f s pa ren the t i ca l notes: Itme time was 22527 (5:52 1M C D T ) . I was on Chanml 5.9 c a l l i n g BLv ( ~ c o i t ) when I first saw the objec t , It was a t my 1145 pos i t ion ( i n f r o n t of him) on a heading of 280 degrees (head i,ng west) . It was chronle-green, v e r j b r i l l i a n t , l i k e a n a r c l i g h t o r l i k e burning pliosphorus. I c a l l e d t o Stevenson and pointed t o it. He saw l t too. It continued on ac ross the sky off my l e f t wing and. exited. about 4,000 f e e t above me (37,000 f t . A l t i t u d e ) . It was a s l a r g e a s our l a r g e s t a i r l i n e r and i t h d a t a i l 200 f e e t long of what looked l i k e white phosphorus, a burning t a i l .
