British UFO Mystery witness regarding the Cosford Incident March 1993, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England.

As a 16 year old at the time of the incident I was preparing to enter the army as a solider with the army air corps. Since the age of 12 I had been a member of the cadet force in which I held the rank of flight sergeant in the royal air force section. So as you can imagine I had extensive knowledge of all types of military aircraft in this country but also in other countries. I also had good knowledge of civilian and or NASA type aircraft and satellites. Being a member of the cadets I was a frequent visitor to RAF Shawbury airbase near my home where I went flying in fixed wing and non fixed wing aircraft. I had and still have a big interest in aircraft. On march 30th 1993 at approx 11pm I was walking home from my part time job at the local bowling alley in the northern outskirts of Shrewsbury my home town. My parents at the time owned a public house called the Harry Hotspur and it was only 600 metres from my work along a road called Harlescott lane. The walk only took me normally approx ten minutes. As walked home I got to within 100 metres of my home and my eye caught a slow moving structured object moving from left to right, south to north, in the sky approx 300ft up. As I got to my home, I continued to watch this object. It was a black triangle shape, structured, approx 200ft in length and approx 150ft to 200ft in diameter. It was very defined, and blocked out the stars. As it was a clear night with no clouds. On the two rear points of the triangle I noticed a faint red or orange coloured glow and at the front the triangle was omitting a brilliant white light, and this was moving back and forth as if was looking for something. The triangle was moving very slowly I would say about walking speed and I could hear nothing but a very low humming sound that was irritating to hear. I also felt warm and the sense of being watched or at least whoever or whatever was controlling the triangle knew I was watching it. Opposite my house at the time was rough ground and fields and the triangle continued to move north over them with the white light flicking back and forth randomly. At this point I estimated that I had been watching this craft for about 2 minutes when all of sudden it shot off to the north at incredible speed making no sounds at all. I knew that this craft was not a military or civilian aircraft and I rushed into my house and woke my parents up to tell them what I had just witnessed, all of us then went outside to see if we could see the craft but there was nothing. Basically that was that for me I never told the authorities because I didn’t know what to do and during my time in the military I never spoke of the incident as I didn’t want to be ridiculed. However it’s only been in the last 2 years where I found out about the Cosford incident and that what I saw was linked to sightings all over the UK that night. Ever since the incident I have had a feeling of knowing that the craft will come back, it makes me feel uneasy but at the same time I want to know where it was from and why it was here. I can’t explain, but I have in my head that in 2012 something is going to happen and that its linked to what I witnessed. It’s a feeling that never goes away, and when I go back to the spot where I witnessed the incident I get an over whelming sense of uneasiness to this day. I think the military in the UK and the United States know of these craft but are keeping it under wraps away from the public so as not to alarm people.
