I ppsted this on the main MUFON board as well:
Here is what I just witnessed. I was driving back home from Newington, CT to the New Haven area. I was on Route 15 south between where the Berlin Turnpike becomes the Merritt Parkway, until exit 62. The time witnessed was between 9:02 and 9:09pm. I was traveling home and saw what I thought to be a planet, low just above the skyline. It was "twinkling" and had a light red color. It was not blinking. It appeared stationary in the sky which is why I assumed it was a planet at first. As I kept traveling I noticed the object getting closer and stopped "twinkling" and was just staying the same dull red color. I should say at this point that I am a trained pilot and am aware what nav lights look like and these were not nav lights of a civilian aircraft. I can't say for certain what the craft looked like although it appeared to have roughly the shape of a conventional airplane with signifigantly shorter, stubbier, wings. And the entire body was glowing a dull red. It passed me traveling at what I approximate to be under 200kts traveling in a northerly direction at about 5,000ft maybe 5 miles to the east of my position. Was this an Alien craft? I am not sure about that but it was certainly a UFO in the sense that it was a flying object that I cannot identify. Again since I was driving I didn't get the greatest look at this but I can say with a degree of certainty that the red light coming from the craft was not something that a typical airplane would be equipped with. At the time I noticed airplanes in the area that can be easily distingushed as human based on the light configuration. Maybe someone else saw something like this too?
