Bridlington free press 15/3/07-The paper printed eight separate reports of orange and red balls of light seen along East Yorkshire coast line. Some of the sightings were multiple witness. And they all claim the objects were silent able to move up and down and sideways . They say the balls of light moved in deferent directions to each other which would rule out Chinese lanterns or balloons as these would travel in a very similar line with the following wind.
So what are they? UFOs seen over Bridlington 5/3/07 After a long talk with David Hinde on Sunday evening i came away feeling that his sightings still fitted comfortably into the category of UFO. David seemed very articulate and level headed and openly admitted to having no interest in ufo before this sighting. His journey from Malton to Bridlington was uneventful until he reached the dottrill public house. David used this as a reference point as it was from this location that he saw the lights. They were quite high in the sky and red orange in colour. He estimated there size to be about twice as big as a star. They were not moving as a plane would and seemed to be able to move up and down and side ways. They were so unusual that he decided to pull over in a lay by and watch them. Using the road as a sort of guide he realized that they never moved from the right hand side of the road. He also estimated that they were somewhere above the Honeypot pub. This public house is quite remote and off the beaten track. As interesting as the sighting was , after 10 to 15 mins [time now 1105PM] David reluctantly got back in his car to drive home. It was at this point something a little unusual happened. Spooky was David's words. As he started the engine and turned on the lights the red/orange light of the ufo went out. At that point he felt a little uneasy. I did ask him if it was merely that the lights from the car had stopped him from seeing them. He said not, and that the sky that evening was very clear and bright. David continued to look for another minute or so and to his surprise they appeared again. At this point David continued his journey home, his head full of what he had seen. And like the rest of us still looking for answerers to the puzzle. ILF now has many sightings and reports of these orange/red spheres over Bridlington and they seem to be on the increase. I would like to here from anyone else who has seen them. An unidentified seen hovering 2/3/07 over a field near Staithes on Monday night by a teenager returning home. Steven Dye (18) who lives in Staithes, says he saw the phenomenon, silently shining close to where he was driving towards the village from Boulby at around 8PM. He said: "I saw something floating in between Staithes and Hinderwell from where I was looking." It had about eight lights, red and orange coloured and it just stayed in the same place for about 10 or 20 seconds before fading away. It is the first time I have seen something like that. I told my Mom and we went back down there later on but there was nothing there. It is interesting to note that these sightings are within a few days of each other and along the same stretch of coast line. ILF-UFO have reports of other people seeing these objects and fishermen off the coast of Bempton and Bridlington.
