   Saw one gigantic 150 meter long floating object:     
       
   It was on monday evening, April 17, that Mr. Karl Axelsson from Brunflo   
   had his most remarkable experience of his life. When Mr.Axelsson was   
   driving his mother-in-law home, they observed a strange light phenomenon   
   in the hazy evening.   
       
   Mr. Axelsson returned later to the sighting location with his binoculars.    
   What he saw was so sensational that he is still really upset when   
   he retells the story.   
       
   Right over one hill, Sheepskin hill, was a gigantic floating object,   
   about 150 meters long. The whole object was divided into sections   
   and looked like a lighted cement block. At the top of the object were   
   two searchlights rotating like a lighthouse.   
       
   He observed the object for seven hours. During this time he made many   
   interesting observations. At 21:45 was the regular lin-flight from   
   Stocholm to Froson-Ostersund airport. Right before the plane appeared,   
   the object seemed to pumpĀ ogt steam and when the plane passed, it   
   was coated in a cloud.   
       
   On two further occasions, aircraft were passing, but at this time   
   the light was closed, so as not to be discovered. At one time during   
   the remarkable observation, Mr.Axelsson, was really scared. He said:   
   "Both rotating searchlights swept in an enormous arc. When the strong   
   light was near me, I was quite blinded. Once one of the searchlights   
   beamed against me and my car. It was a frightening feeling.   
       
   The cone of light was formed as an endless corridor.  Inside the corridor,   
   one was not blinded, but became aware of a strong, squared shining   
   light. Mr.Axelsson, then jumped out of his car and ran home, and telephone   
   two of his workmates. One of them, Mr.Hakan Forslund, also engeged   
   in the UFO studies, said: "When we went up to the sighting area, the   
   object had changed its position and was now floating over the Lockne   
   sea. I can agree with Mr.Axelsson, description. One of the things   
   I noticed was that the searchlight beam from the object was much   
   stronger then the foglight from the Lockne factory.   
       
   During the observation time, the object changed position four times.    
       
   ( During one occasion, two small objects left the larger one. One   
   of them circled over Grytans range.)   
       
   We were at most five who observed the object at the same time. I know   
   others who saw the object, but they don't like to tell anything about   
   the sighting. From that evening on, there were other reports of a   
   similar sighting of the object in about the same location.

   Mr.Philip Mantle, an investigator for UFO sightings said: A woman   
   from Bradford who was travelling home along the Bradford/Wakefield   
   road around 8:30 P.M. on March 24, she saw a large circular shaped   
   object with multicoloured lights in the skies over Morley.   
       
   She said: She saw a row of lights. She and her husband were looking   
   towards Leeds when they saw the unidentified object and they pulled   
   into a layby near the Tingley Working Men's Club to observe it further.   
       
   The object appeared to be moving towards leeds and was about two or   
   three miles away and a number of other people in cars pulled into   
   the layby to look at the object too. Mr.Mantle is with the Yorkshire   
   UFO Society and he would like to know if any one saw this large object   
   if so then call Mr. Mantle on (Batley 444049)

   CASE TYPE:  LRS - NL   
        DATE:  17 JUNE 1986    
        TIME:  2300 HOURS

   A Bournemouth man is trying to confirm his UFO sighting at West Howe.    
       
   Mr. Peter Charman was out walking his dogs in Paddington Grove late   
   at night when his gaze was drawn by a strange light in the sky.   
       
   "It was moving slowly but I couldn't see any definite outline -like   
   a sparkler that kept going on and off," he said.  "It was my first   
   UFO sighting."   
       
   "It lasted for about two or three minutes and was flying at 2,000-3,000    
   feet," added Mr. Charman, a coach driver who lives in the Grove.    
       
   But he's not claiming the mystery night-flyer was an extra-terrestrial   
   starship.    
      
   "It was an unidentified flying object - UFO is not necessarily synonymous    
   with spaceships," he explained.  "So I don't think I'll be carrying   
   any little green men on my coach!"   
       
   He is appealing for anyone who saw the incident, on Tuesday (June 17)   
   at 11 p.m., to contact him on Bournemouth 575875.   
       
   Hurn Airport had no reports of sightings on that date, they said.
