This sure sounds familiar, eh? Very similar to the tactic I experienced, and so many other people too. Farcical.

Okay one is really an amazing one. Then a break for a bit. I think it is the Kansas "Airship"
A lot of these aren't in collections of old sightings and haven't been seen for a long time.. I thought of every possible combination of search terms and combinations for several years searching these databases:
1897. Cigar-shaped UFO "Airship".

Okay. Another. Probably same one as above. Love the zig-zag --typical for UFOs.
