There were in all 7 lights in the sky. Initially 5 in a line travelling along the manchester airport flight path. The light were moving in the same direction. Then the second light flew slightly to the right of the front one and overtook it. After perhaps a minute they entered light cloud and gradually disappeared. Immediately after a 6th light exactly the same yellowish and slightly flickering took the same path and as this one dissappeared a seventh oneappeared coming from the same origin and the same path. After passing overhead it appear to vitually stop moving and after approx 2 minutes started to fade into the cloud as the others had. I had stopped my car. Both my wife and I watched all this. There was not a sound of a aeroplane or helicopter and it was a very quiet very cold and mainly clear night.
