OMAP ABA on 3 VARI 8422.59 yd ee 18. Object seemed to be some sort of flare. Witness thought it was some aircraft in trouble. Requested the tower to take a look at it to determine if it were a flere. It appeared, with the naked eye, to be a very bright light the color of ordinary fire which lost and regained altitude in the manner of a paracimte flare riding on thermals. The intensity of the light varied. This was attributed to clouds passing ioorfxramtk below; however, the light was readily discernible thru the clouds. The sky was clear to scattered. When the object was compared to the stars there was a decided difference, Stars were of the usual ~ white; this object was yellow or flame color. When first seen it appeared to be about 4,000 ft but disappecring over the horizon would make it much higher, The movement was very slow in appearance and it left no trails or tails like a meteor or comet. Place of disappesrance was approximately due west from position of observer, NOTE: See also 48, 48a, 4Sb, 4Sc, Ysa & . 332 33a, 330, 33c, 33d> 33e, 35f & 30 and 32
