I can't say what these guys saw, but I know what I saw, along with hundreds of other people. It was directly overhead on a crystal clear night while my boat was moored along with others on Cayuga Lake. I pointed it out to my wife & friends that were there relaxing on the deck of my friends boat. It was motionless, appeared to hover. There were several lights and I thought maybe it was several helicopters, yet there was no noise. After maybe five minutes the lights all swung around (rotated) in complete unison. It was then that I realized it was not separate craft, but one huge craft. The lights were in a triangle formation like the ones often seen on TV or in videos. It silently and slowly moved off down the lake toward Ithaca and beyond. We watched it until it was out of sight, maybe another 15 minutes. The next day one of my employees reported seeing the same thing from the mall parking lot along with many other people as they exited the movie theater complex. It was reported on the local Binghamton TV station (since it was also seen by people there) as unexplained, possibly a weather balloon. LOL LOL, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? A weather balloon???? Paleeez. A low flying blimp? Maybe, but no one reported missing a huge silent blimp.

Same here. In the mid 60’s, my entire neighborhood (and myself) gathered in the street to watch 5 round large colored lights floating near by in a triangular formation. They hovered for 10 minutes or more, virtually motionless, changed position and then flew up.

The next day, the local newspaper had a tiny blurb about routine “weather balloons” scaring residents in the area... although I never saw a weather balloon in the area before that or after. Must have been some pretty high tech ‘weather balloons’ for the 60’s.

The Goodyear blimp passes over my town on it’s way to Cleveland stadium. It’s engines are extremely loud. Blimps aren’t balloons that drift with the wind. They’re powered aircraft. And,,, they’re LOUD!
