Insufficient Data

Summary

In March 1962, a civilian witness at Hyde Park, Massachusetts, was watching a jet plane and its vapor trail when three objects appeared above the plane and the trail. At first the witness thought they were sea gulls, but then noticed they did not behave like birds. A questionnaire was sent to the witness but was not returned to the Air Force. With little detail available, the record card listed the case as insufficient data.
