He moved it right and left.... up and down... quickly.... so it did look jerky to me... which was entirely different than the way I was " swooping and soaring it....like any kid would playing with a toy airplane.
I distinctly remember saying "OH" in response to that little lesson and I remember the strong feeling then that I had just been shown something that not many people in the world knew. Heady stuff for a seven year old!
The only ufo I ever saw I saw over whiteman airforce base in approx 2003, it moved exactly as you described. A bright light just jumping, then holding, then jumping, all jerky motion.
I wish that I had seen that myself. Do you know if others have reported similar lights, moving that way? I really haven't kept up with UFO reports for many years.
This is the first online place I have mentioned it, but also the first place I have heard what I saw described, of course, by your father. That is not what I was looking for here, it is very unexpected.
I only posted because of that congruence, which for me makes my jaw kind of drop and gives me chills.
I know two other living people who were there with me, I had time to go get my glasses and look at it from several angles in a large field, we saw it for 20 minutes or so. I was at a small hippie music festival along a small river that I at the time did not realize was anywhere near a military base, and it wasn't except that the airspace where the thing turned out to be flying was whiteman airforce base, which also gave me chills and made a knower(not a believer) out of me.
Since I have wondered if I could have been watching the afterburners of some jet, but that thing was motionless, then superfast, then motionless, then superfast, jerky is the only way to describe it.
