This is a strong case:

  1. disconnection from radio chatter indicating interference (or hoax)
  2. numerous corroborating witnesses
  3. two sets of unconnected witnesses
  4. irregular flight maneuvers (ruling out atmospheric), stopped mid-flight, and performed a 45 degree turn.
  5. shown a green light through the cockpit of the helicopter indicating some form of technology.
  6. unlikely a manned secret craft of any sort:
    1. a fixed-wing aircraft moving across the line of sight would appear to move most rapidly when passing directly in front of the observer;
    2. a fixed-wing aircraft would not have the capability of decelerating from high velocity to "hover" within a few seconds time;
    3. a helicopter would have the capability of hovering, but would not be capable of the high forward speeds reported;
    4. a conventional aircraft, if within 500 to 1,000 feet, would have produced noise audible inside the helicopter;
    5. the FAA requires either a strobe or a rotating beacon on either the top or bottom of the fuselage,
    6. FAA requires that no aircraft shall fly below 10,000 feet msl at speeds above 250 knots;
    7. some of the features of a conventional aircraft would have been seen, e.g., wings, engine pods, windows, empennage, numbers, logo.
