Details of Incident:
Observed an orange light travelling from the southwest to the northeast in a straight line. Object
first appeared as if it was a plane that had taken off towards you with landing lights still on.
However, the light coming from the object was orange and not white light as you have with landing
lights. The vehicle maintained a steady speed and did not do any type of strange flying, just flew
straight. As the object approached, I was not able to see any red, white or green navigation
lights that are on aircraft. As the object flew overhead, the orange coloring did not disappear
as you would expect if the lights were dull landing lights. As the object passed overhead and
continued to fly to the northeast, the object still stayed orange. As I flew away, I still was not
able to see any red, white or green navigation lights, nor strobe lights from the object, it just
stayed orange. There was no trail behind the object like you have with a falling star nor was
there a contrail behind the craft. There was only this one object in the sky. It should be stated,
that the object appeared as if it was a orange colored star in appearance. Again what made this
interesting was the color of the object and the lack of any type of navigation lights coming from
the craft. I feel that if this was a normal aircraft, was did I not see the navigation lights from
the rear of the object. Also why would the color of the object stay orange. at the time of this
incident, there were no other aircraft in the sky, nor was there any sound coming from the craft
like a jet engine or sound of a prop aircraft. I do not know how high the object was, again, it
appeared like an aircraft that had taken off and had reached flight altitude. And if some one
wants to say that it was an aircraft that had taken off, I have seen enough landing lights on
aircraft coming in and landing and taking off that I can truthfully say, never have I seen orange
landing lights before. The observation point was a dark area, with little to no ground light. I
was on the job at the time and WAS NOT CONSUMING ANANY TYPEF ALCOHOL OR DRUGS.
