Witness stated: “There was this brilliant, clear blue sky, when I happened to look up and notice two peculiar objects with vapour trails. They were close together and looked like they were falling straight down. When I looked away and looked back, they were gone. I thought it was strange. About 30 minutes later, I looked again and saw four of them, so I grabbed my camera. They seemed quite close together, and it looked like two of them almost collided as they crossed paths. I thought they can’t possibly be aircraft because of the speed and trajectory.”

Comment Two - Published in Leicester Mercury Letters Column - 22 December 2014

Correspondent stated: “Further to your article about UFOs seen above Kibworth (December 15th.) - I also saw the vapour trails from where I live in Wigston. I looked at them through my binoculars, and could see that they were four military fighter jets at high altitude travelling roughly east to west. Although very high up, I could make out the delta wing, so I would say they were probably RAF Typhoons.” (Response: Positive). (Smith).
