Terauchi radioed that the lights he saw were yellow, amber and green, but not red, which is the international color for aircraft beacons. Paul Steucke, the FAA spokesman in Anchorage, said his agency is continuing its in- vestigation into the incident and that radar tapes and the recorded radio messages are being sent to Washington. But Terauchi said his only conclusion is that the three UFOs he saw on that Novem- ber 17 flight were not from earth. '
