CSIGHTING DETAILS

What did the UFO look like, shape/size in relation to terrestrial objects/lights/colour:

A round deep Orange glowing ball

Did the UFO do any strange things like hover and then zoom off quickly:

cam into sight from east, was low, climbing, but too fast for a airplane, Flew over head was still glowing once it went past (from rear as well as front). The glowing ball flickered in intensity of light.

Any additional comments:

Im a plane enthusiast. I know were on Newcastle airport approach. This object was orange, the sky was clear dusk it had no trail or noise. I went round the back and saw it zoom over to the west and over the pennines in the distance. It was still glowing from the rear(planes dont do this). It was lower than the planes are and much faster with zero noise. It eventually disappeared over the horizon (pennines). It must have travelled 50 miles before I lost sight. Visibility was cloudless with a light blue dusk sky.
