Man with knowledge of
aircraft is baffled with objects over Arizona
By Billy Booth
Introduction
We all know about New Mexico and UFOs, but
Arizona is a nearby neighbor with its own history. If you are not
familiar with the following cases, Triangle UFO over Maricopa, Arizona Lighted Objects Photographed

Communicate with Alien Beings in Arizona and of course, the most well-known of
all, The Phoenix Lights, be sure to check them out.
Litchfield Park, Arizona - 12-10-14
Shape: Formation - Duration: 20 minutes - Multiple
lights in the sky in Litchfield Park, Arizona. I'm a 45 year old college
graduate. My job is a server admin at a local utility. I'm also familiar with
many types of aircraft and the flight paths around my area. I
considered myself to be educated and use good logic. In the past I've seen
things in the sky that at first I could not explain, however, on further
thought I am able to determine what I had seen in logical terms.
First Case That Baffled Witness
This is the first time I could not come to a
logical reason for what I saw. I just finished up being an aide in my
son’s Religious Education class at Church and was walking to my automobile. Out
of my left eye, I caught an orange light in the sky to the North. I then turned
to look at it and noticed several more objects in trail, not flying in any
sort of formation.
I then looked to the Northwest in the direction of
Luke Air Force Base and saw several others appearing from that direction.
After viewing in Church parking lots for several minutes and taking two
pictures, my son and I drove about a half mile north.
The objects were almost directly over us at this
point, and appeared to be a round flat light. I took another picture. As
I was viewing them the lights appeared to go straight up and disappear
into a thin cloud. We drive about 1,100 feet east from the point to get a
better view. One last object appeared from same direction as others;
however this one appeared to be larger than others. This last object
disappeared straight up before I could unlock my phone to take a picture.
Not a Standard Flight Pattern
This was not in any flight pattern I’ve seen in the 12
years living in this area. And I could look behind and above me to see the
normal pattern of planes flying in/out of Sky Harbor and through its air
space. At first I thought they might have been military helicopters.
However I’ve seen flights of helicopters out of the Arizona National Guard
base before and they tend to fly in formation and lower. Also each object had
only one light with no visible tail rotor light. Further I ruled out hot
air balloons because the lights were two small for that (the entire
balloon usually lights up at night).
Afterburners from Jets?
My next thought was that I was seeing afterburners on
jets out of Luke AFB. But this did not fit either. Flights out of the AFB
are usually around four to six jets, and flying in some sort of formation. Also
with 30 plus fighter jets in afterburners, the noise would have been
horrendous. These objects made no observable sounds. Also if these
were jets, they would have been moving much quicker in horizontal flight.
My final thought was they could be Chinese lanterns.
However, since they flew nearly level for quite some time and then went vertical,
this would rule them out. Balloons with some sort of light attached to them.
Further given the proximity to Luke AFB and Glendale Airport, I find it
hard to believe that a group would get permission for such a launch.
