Sighting of a cigar-shaped object in Glenavon 1955

Summary

In June 1955, a witness in Glenavon, California, observed a reddish cigar-shaped object for fifteen minutes. The object, described as the size of a dime held at arm's length, was seen using binoculars. Visibility was five miles, suggesting the object was at a considerable distance. The witness managed to establish radio contact with the UFOB, confirming the object was definitely an aircraft. Despite its unusual appearance, investigators concluded it was not a balloon, an astronomical phenomenon, or an unknown object, but a conventional aircraft. The detailed description and radio communication helped quickly resolve the mystery.
