UFO seen over Beaucourt in 1979

Summary

In April 1979, residents of Beaucourt (France) reported a luminous object in the sky. The gendarmerie was alerted about an object emitting bright light and moving at low altitude. Witnesses described flashing red lights and a steady green light. After investigation, it was determined that the phenomenon was a training aircraft, a DC.9, performing aerial maneuvers in the area. Although it initially seemed unusual, the case was classified as A, meaning an observation of a conventional aircraft. This case shows how even seemingly inexplicable phenomena can have rational explanations.
