Strange Alabama- UFO sighting over Montgomery

On July 24, 1948, Captain Clarence Chiles and John Whitted were operating a flight from Houston to Atlanta when they saw something unusual 5,000 feet above Montgomery.

The Eastern Airline pilots claimed that a they saw a flying object swiftly approaching them. Thinking it was another plane about to collide with their aircraft, Chiles swerved to the left hoping to get out of the way. As the opposing plane moved closer, the two men noticed that the flying object had no wings and had a number of brightly glowing windows down the side. They claimed that the B-29 sized ship stopped abruptly and then, in a flash, took off vertically toward the sky.

Although only one passenger was awake during the incident, he did not have a very good view of the window. He did however comment on the fact that the ordeal had been "not like anything I had ever seen."
