At 6:07 a.m. CST, an Eastern Airlines Super Constellation airliner broke out on top of cloud cover at 1,500 feet and the crew observed an intense white light approximately 1000 feet above the airplane. The pilot veered the plane to the left as the object continued on to the right at approx. 285 degrees. The object moved away rapidly at 4-5 times the plane’s speed of 250 mph. The object was at about 4,000 feet at this time.”
