The Encounter
The person involved in this encounter is Chuck Weekley, a pilot for Sunline Aviation. He was flying back to Miami after a charter run to NASA when he suddenly saw an intense greenish light surrounding his plane. This light was so bright that he could not see outside. His instruments began to malfunction, and he had to let the plane fly itself. After a short time, the glow faded, and everything returned to normal. Weekley reported that he felt relieved that there was no collision. The encounter left him with a sense of confusion about what happened, but he did not mention any lasting impact on his life.
