Multiple 'black band' cigar UFOs reported over Delaware
A Delaware witness reports watching two silver, cigar-shaped objects "with a black band in the middle" while driving along a rural road, according to October 10, 2011, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness said the object was observed lower than an airplane - about 10,000 feet in altitude - when a second, identical object was noticed.
"I saw one, then the other about a mile behind it in a straight line," the witness stated. "I pulled over and got out of the car and tried to take pictures with cell phone, but did not show up on camera. I saw no wings. They were cigar-shaped with a black band in the middle. The same as pictured in Roger Marsh's September 29, 2011, article www.examiner.com/ufo-in-national/two-black-band-cigar-ufos-spotted-over-michigan . They eventually disappeared out of sight. The day was very sunny, no clouds in sight, about 10 a.m."
Two days later the same witness was traveling about one mile away on a country road, when another identical object was seen moving overhead.
"I grabbed my binoculars and saw the craft turn slightly upward and disappear into the sky. I know these are not airplanes; there were no wings, no sound or trail and hovered rather than flew."
No town name was mentioned in the public portion of the MUFON report, which was filed on October 10, 2011. The events occurred on October 7, 2011. The above quotes were edited for clarity.

IN, October 7, 2011 - cigar shaped aircraft shiney silver with black band in middle. MUFON Case # 32506.
I was driving to my farm in the country on a rural road. While adjusting my sun visor two shiney silver aircrafts caught my eye straight up in the sky. They were lower than an airplane, about 10k feet up. I saw one, then the other about a mile behind it in a straight line.
I pulled over and got out of the car and tried to take pictures with cell phone, but did not show up on camera. I saw no wings. They were cigar shaped with a black band in the middle. The same as pictured in Roger Marsh's 9/29/11 article.
They eventially disappeared out of sight. The day was very sunny, no clouds in sight, about 10 a.m.
Two days later, I was travelling about a mile away, also on my way to the farm and saw one of the same a/craft. I grabbed my binoculars and saw the craft turn slightly upward and disappear into the sky. I know these are not airplanes; there were no wings, no sound or trail and hovered rather than flew.
In the past, I have seen a blimp type craft with a fish tail hovering over the woods line near my farm. It seemed to be over the county waste area. No sound or movement, then disappeared. I saw this one about four times, but not since last spring.
In all cases, I had no fear of the crafts, just a reluctance to report for fear of government contact.
