Actually the reports started coming in at 8:15pm North of Phoenix prior to any press coverage and long before the "flare drop" by numerous people following a southward path. No way the reports that came in at 8:30pm could have been spurred by the 8:15 reports as it wasn't on the news yet. TWO events...

It's flares and a 15 minute difference, depending on where you are and the horizon, mountains etc. different people would have different view at different times.

Just to clarify are you guys saying that ACTUAL famous video is flares but was a cover story and the real event happened earlier?

Yes. Two different events at different times.
It does go to show how easy it is to confuse the public. Note how every time they talk about the Phoenix Lights on TV, they ALWAYS show the same video. So its no wonder that people get confused by this!
That's right. Only they would be propeller driven Hercules C-130 which is used to drop flares (not the C-131 that the caller named). It doesn't look as though they dropped quite so many flares as demonstrated in the video below of course.

So the alleged former Norad officer in the coast show would be spot on when he stated that they commanded two jets up to drop flares as a cover-story then?
Are there no available videos of the 8:15 sighting out there?
Would be interresting to compare a video of the earlier sighting with the later one that is confirmed to be flares, to see if the lights look even remotely the same in both videos.

Welcome to ATS.
P.S. Be careful with Wikipaedia as a source - sometimes an accurate entry gets changed into one that isn't before you can fart.

The encyclopaedia anyone can edit? Far be it from me to say that a journalist or writer might edit Wikepedia in favour of their own work.

Thanks.
Are you implying that James McGaha sometimes edits Wiki articles? I wonder who produced that video shown on TV.
