1. CAPTAIN'S REPORT: Pinpoint identified by position between Sperillen and
Kroderen lakes, and reception. 3 white lights seen in line. A/o flashed N, reception gave P. and a red light seen. A/c circled to lose height, and low cloud drifting up the valley obscured the lights as A/c was running up. Further search failed to detect lights again, trough cloud 400 ' A.G.L
Crew very disappointed not to drop, but could not have cone so with accuracy. They suggest red lights in future for snow conditions, as white lights do not show up well against moonlit snow
2. CAPTAIN'S REPORT: Pinpoint identlfied by D/R. No ground detail seen through 10/10 cloud. No reception seen. Load brought back, 4 crew baled out.
