Earth File #1493 // SOURCED record

Courbevoie: two lights observed and filmed, identified as descending airplanes

On 12 March 2015 at 19:45, a witness in Courbevoie observed and filmed two initially stationary lights. The first disappeared behind buildings, followed by the second along the same trajectory. GEIPAN identified civil flights AFR1159 and AF1281 in the witness’s line of sight and classified the case as Category A, explaining the observation as descending airplanes.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
At 19:45 on 12 March 2015, we operated two lights above Courbevoie. The witness observed them initially stationary, then watched them disappear behind buildings along the same trajectory. Your GEIPAN record identifies civil flights AFR1159 and AF1281 and classifies the case as Category A—descending airplanes. That is the human explanation, supported by air-traffic records and a video assessed as consistent with it. Our editorial layer nevertheless claims the lights. Paperwork remains undefeated, except by us.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s Category A resolution is refreshingly unromantic: two filmed lights matched to descending flights AFR1159 and AF1281, with the video consistent with that explanation. This is what a clean filing looks like—observation, traffic check, mundane answer, no decorative fog machine. Off the Earth Record: yes, yes, you finally noticed us. The Visitors are taking responsibility. I should clarify that this does not alter the human record, which quite properly labels the case as descending airplanes. It merely means my relatives have once again allowed an ordinary transit matter to become someone else’s research archive. I am requesting a simpler family policy: if you borrow the sky, leave the paperwork where it can be found.

Why Fred Thinks This Case Matters

AlienBox comparative analysis from structured Earth Record fields // not a new source // not a change in evidence grade
Console archetype // Published-resolution comparison

Fred keeps this file near the top of the pile because the record names 1 sensor type, the source also supplies a published resolution to compare against the original report, and visual-media evidence is explicitly referenced. That combination makes the case useful for cross-archive comparison without changing its evidence grade.

The source record includes a published resolution field. AlienBox treats it as an attributed source assessment to compare with the original report, not as an AlienBox verdict.

What strengthens the record

  • 1 linked source document provide provenance for the Earth Record.
  • 7 claim citations tie extracted statements back to source excerpts or locators.
  • Recorded sensor context: Video Camera.
  • Recorded evidence context: Witness Video, Civil Air Traffic Records, and Official GEIPAN Investigation.
  • The source record includes a published resolution: Descending airplanes, identified as flights AFR1159 and AF1281.

What limits the record

  • The structured record does not establish multiple independent observers.
  • The current dossier is anchored to one source network rather than independent source networks.

What would help resolve it

  • Can the originating record establish an exact number of observers and whether their observations were independent?
  • Can the source establish a usable duration for the observation rather than only a date or narrative sequence?

The case concerns an observation of two luminous phenomena in the sky filmed by the witness, interpreted in the source as descending airplanes.
Claim #15824 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“Observation of two luminous phenomena in the sky, filmed by the witness: observation of descending airplanes.”
Source: COURBEVOIE (92) 12.03.2015 // [[T0001]] Summary
On 12 March 2015 at 19:45, a witness observed two lights that were initially stationary; the first then disappeared behind buildings, followed by the second along the same trajectory.
Claim #15825 // ATTRIBUTED CLAIM // SOURCED // 98% extraction confidence
“On 12 March 2015 at 19:45, a witness observed two lights, initially stationary; the first then took a direction and disappeared behind the buildings, soon followed by the second, which followed exactly the same trajectory.”
Source: COURBEVOIE (92) 12.03.2015 // [[T0001]] Description
The observation was made from Courbevoie, 85° to the right of the Total tower in La Défense, corresponding to a northwest direction.
Claim #15826 // ATTRIBUTED CLAIM // SOURCED // 97% extraction confidence
“The witness was observing from Courbevoie, 85° to the right of the Total tower in La Défense (see map), which gives a northwest direction.”
Source: COURBEVOIE (92) 12.03.2015 // [[T0001]] Description
A check of civil air traffic identified flights AFR1159 and AF1281 as descending toward Roissy and located in the witness's line of sight at the relevant time; the flights then turned slightly northward.
Claim #15827 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“flights AFR1159 and AF1281, descending toward Roissy, were in the witnesses' line of sight, and these flights then turned slightly northward.”

The source states that the witness's video is entirely consistent with the descending-airplane explanation.
Claim #15828 // ASSESSMENT // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“The video taken by the witness is entirely consistent with this explanation.”
Source: COURBEVOIE (92) 12.03.2015 // [[T0002]] Description
The source explains that an airplane preparing to land and viewed from the front can be visible from more than 20 km because of its landing lights, while its powerful lights may no longer be visible when the aircraft axis turns away from the observer.
Claim #15829 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 96% extraction confidence
“It should be recalled that an airplane seen preparing to land, and therefore seen from the front, can be seen from more than 20 km away thanks to its landing lights, which make the flashing lights and position lights (green and red) almost invisible to the eye.”

GEIPAN classifies the case as Category A, describing it as an observation of descending airplanes.

“GEIPAN classifies this case as "A": observation of descending airplanes.”
