March AFB (CA) round sighting (Grok rendering)
Dolan: "near Long Beach, 2 F-86 jets tried to intercept
an object in controlled orbit at around 55,000 feet, but
they ran low on fuel and had to land. 2 more F-86s were
scrambled, with the same results. 3 of the pilots reported
seeing a “silver airplane with highly swept-back wings,”
although one of them said the UFO looked round and
silver. Regardless, in 1951 the U.S. had no plane that
could fly higher than the F-86"
