UFO's 12/18/2003

I called the Salt Lake City Police, Media and Press Information department and asked if they had received any reports of unusual lights or anything in the sky on Monday. They said that they had not received any calls about anything unusual that night. The lights I observed never did move that fast (around 200 mph when they left) and some of the moves they made were the same as what a helicopter would do. Also, the air traffic around the airport seemed normal and there were a lot of planes that flew past the lights and didn't seem to pay any attention to the lights.



It was hard to get a good look at the lights through the binoculars because they were so far away and it was hard to hold them still. But, each "UFO" looked like a set of 6 to 8 white lights grouped together with some small red lights around them. A couple of good glimpses that I got of them gave me the impression that I was looking into the back of a Chinook (a large two rotor cargo helicopter.) So, it seems that they probably were helicopters.



But, it's still pretty strange that they were lighting up the sky like that and not just something on the ground like a police helicopter would do. If they were helicopters, they definitely looked like cargo ones because they were far bigger than the news and air meds that you usually see flying around. However, they never got close enough to the ground to pick anything up with a hoist and I never saw them land. They appeared to be flying to and from Dugway and when they finished, they flew towards Hill AFB staying West of the cities (maybe for noise reasons.) Anyway, it was still a pretty strange event.
