Welcome to B.E.A.M.S.

Founded in 1991, our society consists of a
team of active reporters and field investigators who
factually gather, study and disseminate evidence relating to Earth Mysteries, (e.g. Ley Lines, Terrestrial Energies and Ancient Site Anomalies), Strange Aerial Happenings, (e.g. Unidentified Flying Objects or UFO's), and The Paranormal, (e.g. Spirit and Psychic Phenomena).

Time:23:45
Location: above local cloudbase local weather reports approx 290m
Message: Intense bright orange light moving slowly ssw. Completely silent. Stopped for approx 5mins then carried on in same direction. Lost in clouds.
I have a still and hd video, but it's a new camer,a so I'm still figuring things out.
It is really just an orange dot on the still. The auto focus on the movie wouldn't lock on, but if you are sure you want it I will upload it when I figure it out.
I live about 5 miles from RAF Brize Norton, and the light was heading in their direction. I am well used to aircraft going overhead. I know what anti collision lights look like, police helicopters are also frequent visitors. This was none of these. It can't have been fixed wing because it stopped for about 5 minutes. Helicopters are noisy, do not have bright orange lights and in any case would not hover above the cloudbase, I think?
I have to admit to being quite shocked by this event. I seriously cannot think of a plausible explanation. Nothing fits what I know, and I am very keen to find out what I can. I spoke to the Raf Brize reception who said there had been one other phone call that evening and gave me a number for the MOD, which was an answerphone. I am sure you are aware they appear to have ceased their UFO data collection, but they have a reports history section. There are quite a few relating to bright orange lights.
What, if any, is the official explanation?
I would be much happier if this was a natural phenomenon, but what?
