Summary

In May 2015, a witness in Le Havre observed a mysterious object between paratrooper drop planes. The object descended in a zigzag pattern with sudden, rapid movements before speeding away. The GEIPAN investigated and contacted the local paratrooper club, which confirmed repeated drops were taking place that day. A club representative explained that during such operations, loose objects sometimes fall from the planes and follow irregular paths due to wind and air currents. These objects, once detached, carry the plane's speed and are affected by gravity, air resistance, and dominant winds. The witness's description of a flat, rectangular object could match a simple cardboard sheet. The GEIPAN classified the case as "B", indicating a likely observation of an object that fell from a drop plane.
