Many sightings have contained crude drawings. Among the most puzzling of reports listed was an object tracked moving at more than 1,000 knots by Prestwick airport in 1999. Equally mystifying were UFO sightings by police over the North Sea near Lincolnshire, and a British Airways 737 that has reported a near-miss with a mysterious object in January 1995, while there were more than 600 reported sightings of unexplained objects over what was dubbed the "Bonnybridge Triangle" in Scotland between 1995 and 1997. Alongside reports of unexplained lights or mysterious craft, some witnesses claimed to have had direct interaction with UFOs.

In one unexplained episode from Jan. 27, 1997, South Wales Police has reported claims of a UFO encounter by a driver in Ebbw Vale. The man has claimed that his car was enveloped in a tube of light, which hovered over it for five minutes. During that time his radio and mobile phone were ceased to work. The report has further explained that the man`s car was left covered in dust and dirt.
