I've seen 2 UFO's, I have a few hours flying time and I'm big into aircraft so I know what I'm looking at.

First was when I was 15 and walking home one night on a cold clear night, I wasn't drunk or stoned. It was a sort of diamond shape, it hovered then accelerated across the sky and stopped again and hovered some more. Then it was gone. It was hovering low and travelled (I know the area very well) well over 6 miles in less than a second.

No helicopter can do that. No jet I know of can do that, not with a hover after.

Wasn't scary it was just "Whoa" so fast. I knew I wasn't looking at something I could easily explain.

Another time was when I was with my parents and there was something hovering over our back garden. At least that's what it looked like - our house backed onto a field at the time.

I looked up and I couldn't see any lights or anything but the really fucked up thing was that there was something there - it was blacking out the stars in a perfect disk shape. I can't judge how big it was - there was no cloud and no real point of reference - just a black patch in the sky.

It freaked my dads mate out so much he puked, the neighbours all saw it too. It sat there for about 30 mins - no noise - nothing.

I thought I saw it move then it was just gone and the stars were back. I don't know of any natural cloud/atmospheric effect that would cause that.
