Continuation of Statement of
approximately 100 yards the Liskeard side of the lay by outside Lantoom
Quarry, map ref 230 650.
My view of these objects was very good; the sky being clear, and they
continued their ~scent still at an identical speed to each other and still
on a parallel course. I realised that they were not a~.cerding vertically
but rather cul'ving overhead and heading due South. As they gained in
height the vapot.:r trails became much more pronounced. I wc;s still unable
to estimate their height because of their small size (ider.tical to a star
in the night sky) but I believe they we:·re very high. As they passed
directly overhead at "12 o'clock high", the heavens at this point were
bright and moonlit and I could see that there was nothing bet.we:en ·the
objects apart from empty sky. They we:re definitely twc separate objects.
At abcut this time I became aware of what I be:lieved tc be: a third
object visible only by its vapour trail which was considerably less otvious
than the vapo~;r trails of the: other two objects. This third object seemed
to be travelling to the right hc:.nd side of the left haP.d obejct (as I was
looking up), and slightly to the rear of it. It maintained the identical
speed and parallel course of the other objects.
As the objects continued on a dead straight north south course, they •·.
seemed to be travelling at a similar speed to a high flying passenger jet
aircraft. I lost sight of them owing to the high ground of the quarry
immediately or. my left.
· During the: total duration of this sighting, which was between 45
secor.ds and minute, my observation of these objects was continuo~.:s and
uninterrupted. There was no sound wr... atever, the: night being ver·y still
with no traffic.
