If one believes two amateurs of extraterrestrial beings, a UFO flew above col de Vence in the Alpes-Maritimes) in the night of Saturday to Sunday. Patrick Langouet and Pierre Beake claimed to have filmed the craft which "had the aspect of two large yellowish lights and followed a precise trajectory by taking altitude at a constant speed. After forty seconds, a third light appeared, slightly withdrawn. Then the UFO disappeared." The gendarmerie and the airport of Nice-Côte d'Azur, though, did not see anything.
