Here is another interesting report from the area in November 1986 that coincides with the JAL 1628 Incident. I don't know if you have read internos' thread on the case, but it is the most comprehensive report I have seen. Yet another account of a massive "mothership"-like UFO.

Proably a hot air balloon that someone had rigged with lights (christmas lights) either way, I don't believe it was an alien spacecraft floating around the lake. Honestly folks do you believe this was aliens?..Do you really believe that. Think about what your saying!
That big, a mile wide, and nobody had a camera, what about radar, the military would have picked it up, no mention of them around.
I don't believe they would just allow a mile long space ship wonder around.

A scramjet requires supersonic airflow through the engine; thus, similar to a ramjet, scramjets have a minimum functional speed, about Mach 8.[1] Thus scramjets require acceleration to hypersonic speed via other means. A hybrid ramjet/scramjet would have a lower minimum functional Mach number, and some sources indicate the NASA X-43A research vehicle is a hybrid design. Recent tests of prototypes have used a booster rocket to obtain the necessary velocity. Air breathing engines should have significantly better specific impulse while within the atmosphere than rocket engines.
