77/90/01. 27 September 1990 - 22:30 - Coventry, UK - A sheet of lightning” was observed in the sky. Witness stated: (2012 Statement). “Whilst in the passenger seat of my friends car we noticed through the windscreen and then drove under what looked like a perfect square of sheet lightning appear directly above us about which then disappeared. As we then turned the corner into the street where i lived at the time we then realised there was a collection of multicoloured lights directly above the house at the bottom of the street. We approached the house in the car very slowly as we asked each other, is it a helicopter? no, it is silent. Is it a reflection of lights in the car on the windscreen? My friend stops the car and i get out. At this point i can now see that the slowly pulsating lights are connected to a solid object but i cannot make out its definite shape. it is as if it is attempting to disguise itself somehow? My friend also now exits the vehicle and this thing is just hovering so close to the roof of the house that if i was stood on the roof I could touch it. Other details then begin to become apparent, the object is now turning whilst still hovering and as it turns on it's axis i can now see that it is an equilateral triangle with green, yellow and red lights randomly lit over it's surface and that it's structure is completely black. Another bizarre thing I noticed was that it seemed to have a small rod or aerial type structure protruding from the (Front?) leading point with a light on it. After what felt like 2-3 very dumbstruck minutes of observing it then began to move ever so slowly (About 5mph) across our heads and over the nearby dual carriageway. As it did so in complete silence we then noticed a bank of cherry red lights in a horizontal line across the (Rear?) of the object within a kind of contained rectangle area. I have wondered about that night for over 20 years now and still remember the amazement of what we witnessed.” (UN-Hi). (uk-ufo).

77/90/02. 23 December 1990 - 21:56 - Ernsford Grange, Coventry, UK - A yellow globular aerial object was observed descending into trees - Police involved. Witness (A) stated: Whilst leaving Brandon, Driving along Avondale Road, I saw, together with the car driver, a bright, circular object appear in front of us, high in the sky, slightly to our right. It crossed our field of vision, as if coming into land slightly to our left. It disappeared behind houses and trees. We waited for an explosion or the sound of an impact, but heard nothing. Our first thought was that it was a meteorite, but after there was no explosion, we began to think that it might be a UFO, as I think it appeared to be slowing down slightly as it approached the ground. It seemed to be very large, and our first thought was that it was going to land in the fields in front of us. I am positive that it was no more than ten miles away. After talking about it, I reported it to Coventry police, who, after a lengthy talk, said it appeared to be in West midlands airspace, and said that they would pass it on. About 1.15 a.m. next day, two policemen called and took a statement. They said that there had been another report from the Tamworth area. I have heard no more since.” (IN-NL). (Holloran). (lufoin).

-2001-

77/01/03. 15 July 2001 - Evening - Coventry, UK - A light in the sky was observed that moved at incredible angles with extreme speed. Witness stated: “I saw a Yellow/orange light that moved at incredible speed and what seemed impossible angles. It could instantly reverse direction back to a similar point and was much faster than any aircraft I have ever seen. It did these manoeuvres for about a minute and then sped upwards and disappeared in less than two seconds. It was then that I noticed a passenger airline heading in roughly the direction where the object had been. (nuforc).

-2002-

77/02/06. 12 August 2002 - 22:30 - Coventry, UK - Witness stated: I saw 2 dark grey craft, no sound, no lights, moving very fast across the sky. There had been news of a meteor shower coming down over England, so I had gone outside to see if I could see any. I sat in a chair looking up into the sky, and saw a few coming through the atmosphere. I had also seen a few passenger jets go over, and then noticed something moving to my left. I looked up and saw 2 dark grey objects, which I thought at first was a meteor breaking up, so I looked closer. I noticed that they weren’t meteors as they weren’t burning up. It was 2 UFO's, they looked triangular, although it was hard to see as they were dark grey against a black sky. The 2 objects were moving close to each other, occasionally moving apart, or one in front of the other. They were travelling from west to east at a very fast speed. I thought they may have been fighter jets, but there was no light from the rear as you would expect. They passed over head and had gone out of my vision in about 6 seconds. I listened out for any sounds that might tell if they were jets, but they were completely silent, so they must have been using propulsion technology that doesn’t involve burning fuel. Not only was there was no sound, there was also no light from the craft. To me they looked as if they were travelling at about 6000ft, but as I dont know the exact size of the craft, I cant be sure, but they were moving very fast to have gone across the sky and out of my view in around 6 seconds.” (In-Med). (nuforc).

77/02/07. 6 November 2002 - 21:30 - Coventry, UK - A diamond shaped craft with coloured lights underneath was observed in the sky for approximately 15 seconds. Witness stated: “I was riding my motorcycle heading north on the A46 between Coventry and Warwick, when a quarter of a mile in front of me I saw a huge grey coloured diamond shaped craft in the sky. The craft was moving west to east and was approx 200/300 feet above me when I passed below it. Although it was dusk, visibility was good and my view was clear and for a few moments I saw underneath the craft. It had 13 lights, 2 red, which were located at two ends of the shape (these were flashing on and off), next to each red was a single white light and then a further 3 white lights in a line, next to these were 3 green lights in a line (these started from the other ends of the shape). I would describe the colour of the craft as matt grey and looking industrial (if that’s the word). I could not tell if it made a noise due to the sound of my engine. I would guess the size of it was about the same as ten football pitches put together and it took about 15 seconds to move across the dual carriageway. I was still observing it over my shoulder as I rode away.” (In-Med). (nuforc).

- 2005 -

51/05/03. 30 August 2005 - Afternoon - Coventry, UK - A large arrow-shaped craft was observed in the sky. Witness stated: “This craft at first appeared to be a plane - but I estimated it to be 3 times longer than a plane by the number of lights or maybe windows along the body. It was sighted on open park land, so no perspective to measure by. As it went overhead, it blocked out overhead clouds, which made me think it was quite low. The only way I can describe it is it was like an air craft carrier in the sky, it's presence was huge, no outline could be seen to ascertain shape - but it seemed to be like an arrow and looked grey and 'industrial'. Also there was no noise.” (In-Med). (nuforc).

  77/05/06. 30 November 2005 - Evening - Coventry, UK - Strange circles around the full Moon were observed by married couple. Witness (A) stated: We were Just seeing some friends off from our house when we saw the strange circles around the full Moon. We downloaded the pictures onto my computer to look at them and print them out. It was then that I noticed a strange object in two of the four pictures, I thought it was fluff of the lens, but it is only on two pictures, and no others, and the aspect is different in each of them. (IN-Med). (Mufon).

Witness (A) stated: We saw a strange object in the sky - It basically just hovered and seemed to change shape. We took some pictures of it over 5 minutes then looked at them on the computer to see if we could see what it was. When we went back out to check on it, it had vanished. There was no clouds in the sky and there was no object in the sky, it was weird.” (IN-Med). (nuforc).

- 2007 -

  77/07/01. 4 February 2007 - Early Evening - Coventry, UK - I was outside in my back garden, when I saw a fast moving yellowish light flying very rapidly across a patch of blue sky, and heading for some clouds. Within a second, I shot 3 frames with my camera which was to hand, but I was not sure if I had caught the object due to speed and clouds. When I checked the images later, the object shows up on 2 out of 3 frames. It was in the north-west sky, heading away from me, at an elevation of approximately 20 -25 degrees.” (PE-5C). (Mufon).

 77/07/04. 17 March 2007 - Late Afternoon, Coventry, UK - A glinting aerial object with propellers was observed for two minutes by a male witness. Witness stated: “I caught sight of a small object glinting in the sunlight at elevation 80-85 degrees. I aimed my camera at the object and shot about 50 frames. The object glinted in the viewfinder at 3-4 second intervals, so I tried to time the shutter release with the glinting. The object seemed quite high, but was moving steadily from north-west to south-east (roughly) at a speed similar to that of an airliner. As the object moved away, I noticed a B737 heading towards the vicinity, then I lost sight of the object. I went inside and loaded the attained images of the object onto my computer. The UFO looked like a very odd metallic oval with propeller-like protrusions. These protrusions looked slightly different in each image - almost like they were rotating rapidly. The actual object was shiny aluminium metallic, with some dark spots in the central portion, that stayed in position relative to ‘propeller‘ movement.” (PE-2F). Possible explanation: Autogyro. (nuforc). *Also see 2013 Hinckley case ref: 51/13/18 for comparison. (uk-ufo).

My companion spotted a single blue/green orb moving around above us, first from left to right, back to left, around in a semi-circle, then in a zigzag fashion. There didn't seem to be any pattern. At times it would stop and stay still for a moment. Suddenly a second orb joined it, following at times and then leading.” (IN-NL). (ufoinfo).

77/09/39. 12 July 2009 - 22:00 - Coventry, UK - 3 orange lights in the sky were observed. (PE-5C). Possible explanation: Sky lanterns. (uk-ufo).

77/09/84. 12 September 2009 - 21:00 - Coventry, UK - An orange glow in the sky was observed. Witness stated: “At about the time stated I was upstairs in my bathroom brushing my teeth. I looked up to see an orange glow through the window. I thought at first it may be a police helicopter searchlight, but there was not a sound. It was moving very slowly. On opening the window I saw something that put me into shock. Being an amateur astronomer, I am used to watching the night sky, and I know what I saw. I eliminated all the usual suspects within 5 seconds, to be left with something I can only say was not made by human hands. Drifting slowly and silently across about 100 feet up towards Coventry airport was an orange rugby ball type shape, a sort of orange haze all round it, strobe type lighting oscillating underneath. Above it appeared an orange beam from a small dome on the roof, shining or probing upwards, as if searching for something. By now I was in my garden, but my brother inside the house said a local radio station, reported a similar sighting from a listener simultaneously. I remain convinced what I saw, and for me I believe my doubts about other life types is over.” (IN-Med). (uk-ufo).

77/09/93. 10 October 2009 - 19:50 - Coventry, UK. A huge orange glowing ball of light was observed in the sky at an estimated height of 1,500 - 2000 feet, by 2 witnesses. Witness (A) stated: “We Stood outside in back garden in Counden, Coventry (near Morrisons). Something made me turn around in a south westerly direction. We saw a huge glowing (orange) ball (50 ft square) 1500 to 2000 feet up. No sound at all. Moving south at the speed of plane, maintaining consistent altitude. J was worried as she thought it was a plane on fire and got a little panicky. We tracked it for roughly 30 seconds during which time a smaller glowing ball shot out and disappeared. The object then changed direction slightly westerly I think and disappeared, Not a Chinese lantern.” (PE-5C). (uk-ufo).

77/09/97. 22 October 2009 - 22:02 - Coventry, UK - an amber/red coloured ball in the sky moving at a constant speed. (PE-5C). (uk-ufo).

Witness stated: I saw a bright light travelling through the sky ,at first I thought it was a plane on fire but then its radical movements stunned me, it moved left then down towards earth then straight back up at speed till the light got smaller and then out of sight, I’ve never seen anything like it. I went back indoors and phoned 999 to see if anybody reported it.” (PE-5C). (uk-ufo).

Witness (A) stated: “My girlfriend and I were travelling from London to Warrington and we were on the M1 motorway before the turn off for Coventry and my girlfriend said look at those objects in the sky. I was driving so I looked to the left and there were 3 objects to the side of us very low just above the bottom of the clouds moving very fast chasing each other in mad shapes - they were in a triangle shape and was the colour of a dim light due to the clouds getting in the way then suddenly where there were no clouds and they were really bright. I wound down the passenger window and there was no sound coming from them. I was watching them for about 10 miles down the motorway, and afterward my girlfriend said that she saw one change shape.” (PE-5C). (lufoin).

77/12/24. 29 March 2012 - 22:30 - Coventry, UK - A light in the sky was observed by lone female witness. Witness stated: “I was sitting outside and looked up at the sky and saw a moving light which I thought it was a plane or helicopter at first , but it had no flashing lights and was way too high - it moved across quite fast across the sky - I tried to follow it, but couldn't as the street light round the corner from my house blocked my vision.” (IN-NL). (uk-ufo).

77/12/28. 17 June 2012 - 18:20 - Coventry, UK - A large hovering dark object was observed in the sky. Witness stated: “I was sitting watching television, the sofa of which is positioned next to patio doors so I always have a glimpse towards the sky every now and then. Yesterday I turned my head and looked out and saw an object in the sky, it was quite low and from its size was probably about 4-5 miles away. I ran into the garden to have a look, it was like a big dark grey or maybe black ball hovering there. I thought it was the good year blimp that had been going around Coventry in earlier months and I thought I was looking at it 'face on' and at a weird angle...but I couldn’t hear any droning sound or any sound from propellers!! if you looked at it hard this big ball shaped object was kind of hazy on the surroundings, like a vapour, then it slowly descended within 5 seconds towards the ground and never came back up. because of its distance I couldn’t see where it landed. Good year blimp landing? I'm not sure, i checked out blimp landings on net and they are much slower than what I saw and there is a lot of sound with propellers. plus I’m not sure if Coventry has a blimp site to land - Strange.” (IN-Med). (uk-ufo).

77/13/21. 1 July 2013 - 23:22 - Coventry, UK - A bright star-like object was observed crossing the sky. Witness stated: “I was getting my bags of food shopping out of my car when I looked up to close my boot, I noticed what looked like a star gliding so smoothly over the sky, at a speed I cannot even comprehend. It was brighter than a star, that’s what made me notice it, but looked as high as a star, but was obviously within the earths atmosphere. It’s a wind less night, mild slightly cloudy night and was definitely not the clouds moving and a star being behind them! I know it was not an aircraft of any kind we have, it was far to high…and round, circular like an orb. I counted the time it took to cross out of my eye line into a large low lying cloud, with one last break within it to see it one last time and that was 5-6secs! It was flying at an angle of 35-40 degrees, just majestically with ease soaring through. It was so fast, so smooth, so bright and an absolute thing of beauty.” (IN-NL). (uk-ufo).

 77/13/23. 11 July 2013 -21:25 - Coventry, UK - Two unusual aerial objects were observed by male witness. Witness stated: “Looking out of my bedroom window, in a north-easterly direction, I noticed two objects in the sky, travelling in the same upwards direction, but one slightly ahead of the other, and one slightly higher than the other, but both at similar speeds. There were no flashing beacon lights that would normally be associated with civilian or military aircraft, also, there appeared to be no sound associated with them. The objects themselves appeared to be glowing, but also leaving a glowing trail behind them. They were visible for approximately 45 seconds, then disappeared. (Not out of view, they were just no longer visible in the sky)." (Hudson). (IN-Med). (lufoin).

Witness stated: “First seen as driving, thought may be police helicopter as it appeared stationary as I passed a building (Sainsburys). It moved at speed in westerly direction, and as I got the other side of building, the object appeared to now be approx 50-80 feet in length and approx 20-30 feet across and was moving slowly west. I drove as fast as I could along Tile Hill Lane where I could see it in the distance now moving north north east. I turned onto Banner Lane, parked in lay by and got out to try and see it again. I asked two women if they had seen or heard anything in that area they said no. I stayed, phoned a couple of friends to tell them and saw it again while on the phone. By time I turned camera on to attempt a photo it had moved north north east behind buildings and trees out of my view. I compared it to two separate aircraft landing at Birmingham International Airport while stood at same point. Both appeared higher and noise was heard from engine, the object I saw first started similar size to helicopter then changed to a larger object with single white light at front, two amber flashing lights at outer edges, a single red light at rear and a row of 3-5 white lights approx 10 foot from red light.” (IN-Med).

There were white lights on either side and at the top, at both ends of the boomerang were lights which alternated between black and white." (IN-Med). (lufoin).

77/14/06. April, 2014 - Bell Green, Coventry, UK - Witness observed 2 orange globes flying slowly over the area - no sound. (PE-5C). (lufoin).

77/14/09. 13 May 2014 - 22.00 - Tile Hill, Coventry, UK - 2 orange balls of light moving quickly and silently across the sky were observed. Witness stated: “Last night just after 10.00pm, we saw 2 orange balls moving quickly and silently across the sky from the north moving south. One was behind the other and they kept the same distance. They seemed to glow and flicker almost as if they were on fire but they didn't go out. We watched them for about 3 minutes before they disappeared from view into the distance.” (PE-5C). (lufoin).

77/14/22. 9 October 2014 - 07:30 - Coventry, UK - A very bright object in the sky was observed. Witness stated: “This morning I was driving to work and I saw for about 20-30 seconds a very bright object in the sky which faded away after that. The oval shaped object which seemed to be quite close reappeared about 1 minute later in pretty much the same position and it faded away again after 20-30 seconds. I am convinced it wasn't a plane (at least not a commercial one) as there were 2 on the sky at that time and none of these looked similar to the object that kept appearing and disappearing. I saw the object 3 times in total for no more than 2 minutes and then it was just gone. I'd like to mention that it was clear sky at the time of sighting (7.30 am). I was wondering if anyone else saw the same thing and feel sorry for not being able to take a picture.” (IN-Med). (lufoin).

77/14/26. 15 November 2014 - 21:00 - Coventry, UK - Three large orange objects were observed in the sky by a male witness. Witness stated: “I saw three large orange objects moving at fast speed - the way they moved, the speed and the capability of these craft was unbelievable - something that I haven't seen before.” (PE-5C).

77/16/21. - 8 May 2016 - 12:00 - Coventry, UK - A unusual aerial object was observed in the sky above the area by several witnesses. (Male) Witness (A) stated: “I was attending my kid’s football match with some other parents, when one of them commented on a plane, possibly a 777 or a 737 at low altitude, rising/circling from a take off from probably Birmingham airport. Two or three of us looked up to it in the SSW direction (the midday sun was at about 10 o'clock high). In the background, I noticed a very high altitude object moving across towards the Sun. It eventually be came obscured behind a puffy cloud. Before it finally disappeared, at least one of the other parents there saw it too. At first I though it was an airship due to it‘s elongated shape with the elliptical ends, but it was too long and the proportions seemed wrong for this. After about 5 seconds in view, the object just disappeared and did not appear again.” (PE-1B). (Lufoin).

Coventry and suburbs - End.
