The regional newspaper Nice Matin for October 16, 1954, mentioned that "a machine almost similar, the same without doubt" that the one seen in Biot had been seen almost at the same hour above Bar-sur-Loup among other places.
Jimmy Guieu told in his 1956 book that "the flying saucer that landed near Biot on October 14, 1954 at 06:15 p.m. was seen crisscrossing the sky by a crowd of people, especially in Bar-sur-Loup."
[Ref. nmn1:] NEWSPAPER "NICE-MATIN":
[...]
Almost at the same time, a similar machine (the same one undoubtedly) was seen above Grasse, Saint Raphael, Opio, Gourdon, Bar-sur-Loup and Roquebrune-Cape-Martin.
