Red/orange aircraft on fire like appearance
From my backyard between Mercy Hospital and Battlefield Mall I observed what I at first thought to be a helicopter traveling south from Mercy Hospital, but noticed no sound. It appeared that the whole interior was brightly lite in orange/red, so I thought one of the rescue helicopters was on fire. I ran through the house yelling for my husband to follow me to the front yard to watch it pass, saying I think a helicopter is on fire. We both stood in the front yard unable to identify what we were seeing. We watch the sky a lot so we know most of the aircraft that pass this way. This craft proceeded to silently travel south and turned east just past the Battlefield Mall.
