Silent UFO in Gonesse 1978

Summary

On May 5, 1978, three people in Gonesse (France) observed a flying object at about 50 meters altitude. The object made no noise despite its considerable size and displayed lights of different colors. The observation lasted from 22:45 to 23:15. The witnesses could not identify the object, which intrigued investigators.

The gendarmerie investigation revealed that, at the same time, there were silent aircraft waiting for landing clearance at Charles de Gaulle Airport. This suggests the witnesses may have seen similar aircraft. Although a UFO was not confirmed, the case remains interesting due to the detailed description and the coincidence with real flights.
