Initial data
Howard Johnson stayed in a local Bungalow-Chalet with his wife and her parents. One morning, Howard was looking out of the bathroom window when something caught his attention.
At a distance of 400 to 500 yards (360-450 m), the classic "flying saucer" was moving very low in its direction at high speed.
Less than 75 yards (67.5 m) from the Chalet, the massive silver-colored saucer stopped abruptly. At that moment, Howard could clearly make out the transparent dome above, and below it, a series of very fast colored lights flickered.
Howard forced himself to look away for a couple of seconds, but when he turned, the saucer was still there.
The ship was about 20 yards (18 m) across and was completely silent.
Inside the transparent dome, he saw three figures. One was taller than the other two, pale in color, and human in appearance. From his description, the rest were archetypal "Grays". Although he could only see the top of these figures, Howard said they were wearing silver-colored uniforms.
He got the impression that the taller figure was responsible for the others, because he was standing in the center and seemed to be manipulating something out of sight, perhaps in some way. Then the ship began to move slowly until it disappeared from view behind the window frame.
At this point, Howard called his wife and in-laws, and they rushed to watch the ship disappear into the distance.

Summary: Howard Johnson was staying at a local chalet bungalow with his wife and her parents. One morning Howard happened to glance out the bathroom window when something caught his eye. At a distance of barely 400 to 500 yards was a classic “flying saucer” heading very low in his direction at a high rate of speed. Less than 75 yards from the chalet, the solid, silver colored saucer came to an abrupt halt. At which point Howard clearly made out a transparent dome on top, while a bank of very fast, multi-colored lights flickered underneath. Howard forced himself to look away from a couple seconds, but when he turned back the saucer was still there. The craft was about 20 yards across and totally silent. Within the transparent dome, he saw three figures. One was taller than the other two, pale colored, and human in appearance. From his description, the others were archetypal “grays.” Though he could only see the upper portion of these figures, Howard said they were dressed in a silver colored uniform. He received the impression that the taller figure was in charge of the others, for he was standing in the center and appeared to be manipulating something out of sight, possibly controls of some kind. Then the craft slowly began to move, until out of view behind the window frame. At this point Howard yelled out for his wife and in-laws and they rushed in to see the craft disappeared into the distance.
