Observer
NameSteve F
Experience Level2/5
RemarksIt was east of Barby, possibly heading towards Kilsby or Crick. At first I thought it was an aircraft with an engine fire. It was bright orange. I was waiting for an explosion but it kept on flying on a gradual descent path before either burning out or disappearing from my view. I checked flight radar, there was no aircraft in the vicinity in that area. It looked to be at no more than 3,000ft. Awesome! My first one ever!!
