    Hello all,
    
    A request. I'd be pleased if you would be so kind and verify whether or  
    not below sighting is a match with an ISS pass. I'm under flak because of  
    my analysis that it was ISS.
    
    Location: Baarn, Netherlands
    Coordinates: 05°16'00" E, 52°13'00" N
    
    Date: July 1, 2005
    Time: app. 22:05 UTC (00:05 local Summer time, July 2)
    
    The observer was between houses in the town of Baarn. It was a clear  
    night. A bright satellite was first observed in the South. Max. elevation  
    was reported to be 60 deg over the horizon. The sat disappeared towards  
    the East. Duration of the observation was app. 2 minutes.
    
    Many thanks in advance for taking the trouble!
    
    Best Regards,
    Frits Westra
