Summary

On September 12, 1998, an aircraft en route to Dijon observed two bright points moving unusually above it. Initially, the pilots thought it was military traffic, but the erratic trajectory, full of zigzags and altitude changes, did not match normal patterns. The French air force confirmed there was no military activity in the area, and no radar detection was recorded. Despite the investigation, the phenomenon could not be identified.

This case was classified as "D" by the GEIPAN, indicating no satisfactory explanation was found. The lack of radar traces and the inability to identify the object add mystery to the event. Although perceptual errors or rare natural phenomena were not ruled out, the official report offers no clear answer. This type of case remains a subject of interest for researchers of unexplained aerial phenomena.
