* The reports associated with this event include those received
from the police officers who initially saw the objects at
01.10am on 31/3/93.
** These reports are the subject of a letter received from the
MoD (Sec Air)2a giving some details of reports received by
them. They are thought to be associated with the events of
30-31/3/93 because of the similarities between them and those
already known to me.
