The craft first caught my attention by it's size and lack of noise since the Sudbury airport is so near.The object appeared to constructed in segments along it's length(130' approx).It's shape was odd in that though cylindrical it's ends were well like the ends of a bean.I was only a 1/4 mile away as it overflew Hwy 69 heading north @ 400'alt 40-60kph.It ever so slowly stopped dead, pivoted directly east and proceeded directly to the radar domes @ CAFB Falconbrige in plain sight which was part of the Pinetree line(NORAD) in those days.Somethings you never forget like just how casual this thing behaved.Not long after it was'nt visable anymore a CP airliner 4 engine turboprop came just a howling along the exact flightpath of that...that whatever it was.I'll never forget what I saw in the afternoon sun.WOW.
