Initial data
The pilot of Trans World Airlines captain Charles George. Kratovil, the second pilot WR Davis, and flight engineer Harold Rene, discovered head over to "a large disc-shaped white object". He was moving in the sky from time to time disappearing behind the clouds.
He flew towards the oncoming West-South-westerly wind with a speed of 300 miles per hour. Why the pilots came to the conclusion that this is not a balloon, and communicated by radio with the control tower at Boston airport. From there they were told that airplanes in the weld Deposit no. Then they saw the object at approximately 10,000 ft above their altitude of 10,000 feet, but could not approach him.

Original news
TWA pilot Capt. Charles J. Kratovil, copilot W. R. Davis, and flight engineer Harold Raney, on a Paris – New York TWA Constellation heading SW, spotted “a large, white-colored disc-like object” overhead, occasionally lost behind overlying clouds. Flying into WSW headwinds at 300 mph, they concluded it could not be a balloon, and radioed Boston airport control tower, which said jets were scrambled and then saw the object at about 10,000 ft higher than their 10,000 ft altitude, but could not close with it.
