Source: [1][2] UNCLASSIFIED Page 9 I have received lots of requests from people who told me to make a lot of wild guesses.

My pilot's license is 333487. I fly a Callair airplane; it is a three-place single engine land ship that is designed and manufactured at Afton, Wyoming as an extremely high performance, high altitude airplane that was made for mountain work. The national certificate of my plane is 33355. /s/ Kenneth Arnold Box 587 Boise, Idaho traveling this way → [sketch 1] Top they seemed longer than wide their thickness was about 1/20th of their width [sketch 2] side view traveling this way → Mirror Bright They did not appear to me to whirl or spin but seemed in fixed position traveling as I have made drawing. /s/ Kenneth Arnold UNCLASSIFIED
