The British flap of 1967

Nineteen sixty-seven was Britain's busiest year. Police in Lancashire reported a cigar over their own station, a retired flight administrator watched a cross-shaped craft hang over Moigne Downs for twenty minutes, and one September morning six identical saucers lay on a line across southern England, placed there overnight by engineering students.
