Initial data
1st Lieutenant US air force Charles Scarf, jet fighter pilot F102 (No. 1425) with-McChord AFB (Tacoma, WA), and ground witnesses [?] saw a pinkish-whitish cylindrical object (ratio length/width 12:1) with a faint orange tint [?] and the dark circle in the center. He was approaching with high speed at an altitude of about 30°. with oscillatory motion.
The F-102 was S or 18 ° between 40,000 and 50,000 feet at a speed of about 600 mph. The pilot leaned to the left to keep the object in sight, object continued to move North, then got up, slowed down, made a big circle, then flew the plane 3 times, when it descended closer.
The object finally rose to 45° and accelerated in a climb, rapidly disappearing in the North-Western course.
