(f) Colour was orange red changing suddenly to steely blue and back to orange red.
(g) No peculiarities except that I have never observed its like before.
(h) Solid in appearance insofar as a light could be, but definitely not a reflected light.
(1) Only conversation with crew was their statement of the movements of the light on a parallel course to the aircraft at apparently high speed.
(j) I can not form any opinion concerning the nature or origin of the light, and, while trying to accept Air Commodore Cohen's opinion that it was a planet, I can only say, I have never observed a planet so definitely round in shape or so large.
