A Royal Navy aircraft engineer came forward yesterday to report seeing a spinning unidentified craft above the M5 motorway in Somerset.

Michael Madden reports witnessing a flying saucer spinning above the motorway a few hundred metres in the sky, it hovered for a few minutes then disappeared at a tremendous speed.

Madden, from Manchester, was heading to the Royal Naval Air Station at Yeovilton where he works as an aircraft engineer for the Royal Navy. He was driving along a section of the M5 motorway close to junction 21 near Weston-super-Mare at around 9:45pm when he and colleague Michael Casson spotted the strange object.

Mr Madden gave this extraordinary account of his sighting:

“I work with aircraft and grew up next to Manchester Airport so I know exactly what a plane looks and sounds like. This was definitely not a plane.”

“It was a circular disc which was glowing bright, hovering hundreds of metres up. Other people must have spotted it.”

“It was unlike anything I’ve ever seen in my life. It really did look like alien aircraft in the films.”

“It had an antenna fixed to the back.”

Remarkable.
