Shape of Objects: Unknown.
Full Description of Event/Sighting: We live about ½ mile from the main runway at Manchester Ringway so are used (very used) to low flying aircraft of all types. Depending on wind direction the aircraft are landing or taking off.
At about 12:00am on the 01 January 2011 I was in my garden facing south, watching neighbours fireworks for New Year, when I started to see bright lights in the sky to the northwest, heading southeast. They appeared to be at different altitudes, but all on a straight heading.
Their speed was faster than normal aircraft and seemed constant. The coarse they took was at a 90 degree angle to the normal flight path to MIA. The aircraft were in the landing pattern at the time and I would think pilots saw these lights
They seemed to come in waves, sometimes only 2, but others 5 or 6. A couple of them were very bright and seemed bigger than the others. They can’t have been that high in the sky as there was a high cloud cover.
My partner said she saw them from before midnight, but was not sure how long before. At about 12:40, two came from the north-northeast but headed southeast.
If you find out what the objects were please let me know. I have emailed photos as instructed.
