On 30 June 1947 at about 0910 MST, William G. McGinty, P-80 pilot was flying at 25,000 feet over Grand Canyon, Arizona, heading south towards Williams Field, Arizona, when he saw 2 round objects going at inconceivable speeds straight down. One of the unidentifiable objects followed the other seconds apart. Due to their speed he could see only that they were circular and possibly light gray in color. In his opinion the objects were approximately 8 feet in diameter. He estimated that the objects would have probably hit the ground approximately 25 miles south of the South Rim of Grand Canyon, Arizona. AGIT'303: Lt. cGinty gave air personnel orders est. N. A. M.
