Official source account — 2017 annual report, printed page 3: Guillermo Moyano filmed an unusual elongated object toward the west from the southern approach to Villa Mercedes on 27 January 2017. CEFAE interpreted its paired trails as an aircraft contrail and checked flight-tracking records. It identified a matching Aerolíneas Argentinas flight, ARG 1410 from Buenos Aires to Mendoza, recorded at 21,000 feet. The agency concluded that the video was compatible with that Boeing 737 and its condensation trails.
The summaries distinguish reported observations from the agency’s proposed explanations. Source Type A/B ratings describe explanatory confidence and are not encounter classes. The map uses an approximate GeoNames locality centroid, not the observation point.
