This NICAP case file compilation (Dan Wilson) collects material on the July 1948 Chiles-Whitted sighting near Montgomery, Alabama. It includes a NICAP note naming Eastern Air Lines Captain Clarence S. Chiles a special adviser, an exhibit list, and Air Force Office of Special Investigations reports dated November 1949. In those reports Chiles describes a lighted, cigar-shaped object with a red exhaust flame traveling at least 500 miles per hour. Atlanta Journal article extracts are also included.
