Case description

On 15 October 2004, the leader of a Mirage IV patrol was alerted by a fellow pilot who reported being 'followed' by an aircraft at his 5 o'clock position. The leader also saw the point of light, which disappeared after 15–20 seconds. He concluded that a fighter-type aircraft had passed, but ground controllers detected no radar track. The event remained unexplained.
