Date of Sighting: 11 07 09
Time: 00.30

Witness Statement: Whilst visiting my father over the weekend, I saw a bright light in the sky. It came up from the South heading towards Kirkcudbright. It was a clear and still night, the object had no nav lights or strobe. As it came closer to the town I noticed there was no engine noise, by this time the light had intensified to super bright white. The object then suddenly turned to the east, maintaining its brightness which I thought very unusual. The altitude was approx 10 000 feet and speed I estimate at 200/300 mph.

The time and date was 00 30 on 11 07 09. This was a similar sighting to the one in Cumbria the previous evening.
