A man from Inala, Queensland, reported in 1971 having observed a brightly lit oval-shaped object that hovered in the air for a considerable time before disappearing at high speed. The incident occurred around 4:00 a.m. on September 1, in the Inala/Archerfield area. The object was intensely luminous and remained visible while the witness observed it. An officer at Amberley was contacted to report the sighting, and an interview with the witness was planned to gather more details. This case is part of a series of UFO reports analyzed by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) during the 1970s.
