40-7104 N 76.6275 W — I walked outside on May 22, 2009, at 7:24 PM, and looked up because a plane was landing. Right next to the plane was a perfectly round, really high up, but plain as day silver noiseless ball. It was not a disc. It was traveling at a tremendous rate of speed, with no noise, and no heat trail.

Editor’s note: This appears to be an “Orb” UFO that has been reported in the North East quite a bit in the last few months.

We Have Lost Many Men and Planes Trying to
Intercept UFOs” General Benjamin Chidlaw

Timothy Good writes, “The destruction or disappearance of military aircraft during interceptions of UFOs continued apace.” As General Benjamin Chidlaw, former commanding general of the Air Defense Command told Robert C. Gardener (ex USAF) in 1953: “We have stack of reports of flying saucers. We take them seriously, when you consider we have lost many men and planes trying to intercept them.” Leonard Stringfield, the former Air Force intelligence officer was told by a reliable source in the 1950s that the “Air Force was losing about a plane a day to the UFOs. According to US Defense Department figures, from 1952 until the end of October 1956, there were 18,662 major accidents of military aircraft, broken down as follows:

[ad#ad-1]

Year – Air Force – Navy – Total Accidents

1. 1952   2,274   2,086  = 4360
2. 1953   2,075   2,325  = 4400
3. 1954   1,873   1,911  = 3784
4. 1955   1,664   1,566  = 3230
5. 1956   1,530   1,358  = 2888

Of this astonishing four year total of 14,302 US aircraft losses, most involved fast new jets (such as those scrambled in UFO interceptions), of which 56.2 per cent were found to be caused by pilot error; 8.1 per cent by ground-crew or other personnel failure; 23.4 per cent by failure of parts and equipment in the aircraft; 2.8 per cent by various ‘unsafe conditions’, and –9.5 per cent (1,773) were due to ‘unknown factors’. Thanks to Timothy Good’ new book, “Need to Know” P.172

Comments: When I chased a UFO we exceeded the red lined aircraft air speed by 20 knots. In the excitement of the chase it is easy to exceed aircraft capabilities and often some part of the aircraft may fail. Many stories are told of firing missiles and making direct hits on the UFOs that were unharmed only to have them return the fire and destroy the interceptor.

One well known example of aircraft loses to a UFO was the F-89 with tail number 51-5853A, piloted by 1st Lt. Felix Moncla, Jr, with Second Lt. Robert L. Wilson as the Radar Intercept Officer. I spoke with a radar operator who worked in the Air Defense Command radar site on November 23, 1953. During the evening, radar picked up an unidentified target over Lake Superior and alerted the 433rd Fighter Interceptor Squadron at Truax Field, in Wisconsin. Lt. Moncla in his F-89 C all-weather interceptor was scrambled and instructed to intercept the target. The F-89 diving steeply down intercepted the target at 8,000 feet, and radar operators watched as the “blips” of the UFO and the F-89 merged on their scopes, in an apparent collision, and disappeared. No trace of the plane was ever found. You can visit Lt. Moncla’s memorial headstone at Sacred Heart Catholic Cemetery in Moreauville, Louisiana, which reads:

During the summer of 1952, Americans reported a record amount of UFO sightings to Project Blue Book, the Air Force group responsible for investigating unidentified flying objects. Author/Illustrator Frank C. Feschino, Jr. has written an exciting book that encompasses the summer of 1952 and America’s overwhelming UFO problem during that time. The author documents the numerous aerial encounters and confrontations that occurred between United States fighter planes and UFOs over America.

I spoke with Frank who spent 18 years searching for data to put in his excellent book. He told me that in July of 1952, an Air Force information officer revealed, “The jet pilots are, and have been under orders to investigate unidentified objects and to shoot them down if they can’t talk them down.” Feschino writes about the overwhelming amount of mysterious fighter plane accidents and vanished jets that occurred during the 1950s. I congratulate Frank Feschino for finding the story of our missing airmen in his many years of research into the UFO phenomena. “Shoot Them Down” is an important historical record of the deaths of brave men who were ordered to engage UFOs. Not only to hunt them down, but as Lt. Col. Moncel Monts is quoted in the book; “The jet pilots are, and have been under orders to investigate unidentified objects and to shoot them down if they can’t talk them down”.

Frank proceeds to lay his documented cases of pilot disappearances’ as a result of actual aerial dogfights with documented sightings of UFO’s. President Barack Obama laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns at the Arlington National Cemetery this Memorial Day, perhaps those who sacrificed their lives chasing Unknowns has a new meaning. Those who died intercepting UFOs has been ignored. Most of the men who died in our wars have been honored for their sacrifice, now it is time to honor those who died for their country fighting UFOs. http://www.amazon.com/Shoot-Them-Down-Flying-Saucer/dp/0615155537
Marine Major Donald Keyhoe, states .

“In 1949 the Air Force told me they had been ordered to ‘get’ a flying saucer by any possible means. This was admitted by an intelligence officer at the Pentagon … Major Jere Boggs. In front of General Sory Smith, Boggs told me that one Air Force pilot had fired at a saucer over New Jersey.”

“In the late 1950s, as a number of futile US chases mounted, some pilots were convinced that the UFOs were immune to gunfire and rockets. Several Intelligence analysts believed the aliens might be using some negative force linked with gravity control to repel or deflect bullets and missiles. But the top control group disagreed. In a special evaluation of US and foreign reports they found evidence that UFOs were not invulnerable. Some had been temporarily crippled, apparently from power or control failures, and a few others had been completely destroyed by strange explosions. In one or two cases, it appeared that missiles or rocket fire could have been the cause.” http://www.flatwoodsmonster.com/

Many cases involved the disappearance of aircraft and aircrews that are still missing.

The Fullerton News-Tribune, CA July 26, 1956…

“The United States Navy will not publicly admit that it believes in flying saucers, but it has officially ordered combat-ready pilots to ‘shoot to kill’ if saucers are encountered, OCNS [Orange County News Service] has learned. The information was first learned when Navy pilots navigating trans-Pacific routes from the United States to Hawaii were ordered in a briefing session to engage and identify ‘ any unidentified flying objects.’ If the UFOs (saucers) appeared hostile the briefing officer told the pilots of Los Alamitos Naval Air Station reserve squadron VP 771, they are to be engaged in combat… It was found that the orders are not unusual.”
May 5, 1953,  Off the coast of Atlantic City, New Jersey, the USN reported, “3 Navy fliers missing” that were aboard a “Douglas Sky Raider, a night attack bomber.” The Navy reported, “A search by twenty-seven aircraft from daybreak to sundown, failed to find any trace of the men or plane.”

Stanton T. Friedman states, “I have personally heard of seven instances in which military planes chasing flying saucers were never heard from again. The chasing isn’t surprising, in view of the official USAF 1952 orders to shoot them down if they don’t land when instructed to do so.”

“If I have heard of seven such events, then surely there have been more. (More details are given in SHOOT THEM DOWN by Frank Feschino, Jr.).  One can perhaps understand the reluctance of the government to admit that such losses have occurred (even though Major General Roger Ramey admitted in 1952 that more than 300 interceptors have been scrambled).” “Impotence in the face of intruders is not something that governments want to admit.”

Excerpt from, Flying Saucers and Science – A Scientist  www.amazon.co.uk/Flying-Saucers-Science-Scientist

The reported operating characteristics such as extreme rates of climb, maneuverability (particularly in roll), and action which must be considered evasive when sighted … lend belief to the possibility that some of the objects are controlled … –General Nathan Twining, Head of Air Material Command (AMC), 1947.

Major General Robert B. Landry writes, “I was called one afternoon [in 1948] to come to the Oval Office – the President wanted to see me…. I was directed to report quarterly to the President after consulting with Central Intelligence people, as to whether or not any UFO incidents received by them could be considered as having any strategic threatening implications .”.
Major General Robert B. Landry, Air Force Aide to President Harry S. Truman getting another star.

It is sad to know that many governments kept a lid on these engagements. The deaths of many airmen were attributed to pilot error or engine failure when in reality they had died in air combat with craft not of this world. It is time to honor these men who died in aerial battles with UFO’s after being scrambled to hunt them down.

“For we are not fighting against people made of flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6

PENTREBANE, CARDIFF, SOUTH WALES Me and my mate were walking home at 9:30 PM, on April 13, 2009, and spotted three fireballs in the sky. They were travelling quite slow coming towards us. This is the second time we have seen them in the same area and we have video footage but didn’t know how to put it on here. Thanks to UFOINFO for this report.

LLANTWIT FADRE, PONTYPRIDD, SOUTH WALES On May 2, 2009, at 10:30 PM, I came out of the house to go to the shop, I looked up, which I often do because we live very close to Cardiff Airport and are used to seeing planes, but this was different. The object was moving slowly through the sky at only a few hundred feet. It appeared to be a ball of flame similar to the light I had seen five months before with four witnesses. I filmed it for about 90 seconds with my mobile camera as it moved across the sky with no noise towards Cardiff and disappeared at a very steep rate towards the stars. The two objects I had seen before did exactly the same thing about five minutes apart. Thanks to Brian Vike – HBCC UFO Research:

UK/Northern Ireland Two Orange Glowing Spheres

NORTH COAST of COUNTY DOWN At 10:05 PM, on Monday, May 11, 2009 on a beautiful clear night I noticed an orange glowing shape travel fast across the sky. It was silent and was flying low as an aircraft. I called my husband who also witnessed it disappearing across the sky. Then another appeared and followed the path of the first one. We have not seen anything like it before. Thanks to Brian Vike – HBCC UFO Research:

EDINBURGH , SCOTLAND On May 21, 2009, at 10:30 PM, two UFOs were filmed by Jackie Gillies as they rise from the Gorebridge area to intercept a passenger airliner forming an acrobatic crossover across the length of the port wing. Air Traffic Control has referred the matter to the MOD for comment. Here’s The Video——>

LOWESTOFT SUFFOLK On May 8, 2009, I was outside playing with my dog and chatting with my partner when I saw a silvery white bright star-like object drifting overhead slowly and silently at 10:40 PM. I said to my partner, “Look up,” and at that moment the object illuminated to an intense brilliance that almost hurt our eyes. The light took on a square shape while at full illumination and was headed away. It quickly dimmed back to the original circular shape. We were excited and saw the UFO for approximately one minute. After being lit up so bright, it faded in luminosity and totally vanished. The UFO flew directly overhead in a clear sky.

I have had sightings for years and once reported a sighting to the MOD and they dismissed it, even though fighter jets had flown in to intercept the UFO. Brian Vike – HBCC UFO Research:

MURRYSVILLE I was still awake around 4 AM, on May 22, 2009, because I had been looking for a third return of an orange UFO (Unidentified Flying Object). We saw it on both March 13, and 18 2009,I was ready with my new, two day old $1200 Sony HDR-XR500V HD camcorder, and Celestron Skymaster Giant Binoculars 20×80……. I thought I may as well take another last look when I saw a flashing craft going slow and low just above the tree line in front of my house

[ad#ad-1]

I opened the window and there was no sound. I grabbed my new camcorder, opened the patio door and filmed this thing! It was heading west and was lost behind some large trees. Before you think it’s just an aircraft, look how the torpedo thing on right side changes and the porthole/exhaust hole-looking things changes. There’s square windows lit up by the flashing light and a little probe that whizzes past the craft from the right to the left! In one blow up, it looks bullet shaped with two holes.

Five of these things have been seen by Paul and I moving silently overhead for a couple of months now. We had never seen planes with three white lights on the back with a big red light underneath.

Did a UFO deliberately crash into a meteor to save Earth 100 years ago? That’s what one Russian scientist is claiming.

Dr. Yuri Labvin, president of the Tunguska Spatial Phenomenon Foundation, insists that an alien spacecraft sacrificed itself to prevent a gigantic meteor from slamming into the planet above Siberia on June 30, 1908.

The result was was the Tunguska event, a massive blast estimated at 15 megatons that downed 80 million trees over nearly 100 square miles. Eyewitnesses reported a bright light and a huge shock wave, but the area was so sparsely populated no one was killed.

Most scientists think the blast was caused by a meteorite exploding several miles above the surface. But Labvin thinks quartz slabs with strange markings found at the site are remnants of an alien control panel, which fell to the ground after the UFO slammed into the giant rock.

“We don’t have any technologies that can print such kind of drawings on crystals,” Labvin told the Macedonian International News Agency. “We also found ferrum silicate that can not be produced anywhere, except in space.”

[ad#ad-1]

Aliens downed Tunguska meteorite to protect our planet from devastation, stated Russian scientist Yuriy Lavbin about the 100 year old mystery surrounding the massive Siberian explosion. He showed 10 quartz crystals that he found at the place of the meteorite’s crash. Several of the crystals have holes in between, so they can be united in a chain.

- What could this chain serve for? Besides, some crystals have strange drawings on them. We don’t have any technologies that can print such kind of drawings on crystals. We also found ferrum silicate that can not be produced anywhere, except in space”, – the scientist stated.

The meteorite’s crash took place a long time ago, in the summer of 1908. An enormous volcanic ball rushed over the sky with terrifying wallop and thunder-like sound. All the citizens were frightened to death and scared to move out of their houses. A flight of a “flamy alien” ended up in an hour in the deserted taiga area. In a matter of seconds an explosive wave spread for 40 kilometers, devastating everything living around.

It was not until many years later that a Siberian scientist set up an expedition to the place of the meteorite’s crash. They searched carefully through the river banks and found  unusual quartz boards. Mr. Lavbin states that such solid stones do not exist on our planet Earth. He told of an experiment that was done on the crystals: scientists tried to put some of the same drawing that were on the stones initially with a sophisticated laser machine.

How surprised they were to realize that the laser (that usually cuts metal objects into pieces) managed to put just some faint stripes, barely visible. The stones, have an entire system of different lines and circles on them. Scientists suppose that the stones used to be a part of the navigational system of a spaceship. All stones united form a map, which they could have used to cruise through the Universe.

In 1908, the UFO is thought to have hit the meteorite that weighed over 1 billion tones. If the meteorite fell down on Earth, all the people would have been dead, extinct. Scientists believe the aliens had interfered and put their lives on the line to make sure there isn’t a direct impact with Earth.

A strange portrait of an extraterrestrial person on one of the stones proves this hypothesis – concluded Mr Lavbin.

32-7045N 114.569W I was out in my yard on April 5, 2009, when a strange feeling came over me as if I was being watched. I then went in the house and got my camera and just started taking photos of the sky. I could not see or hear anything, but there was that feeling that I had. Later on I was looking at my pictures when I notice this thing (Unidentified Flying Object or UFO) in the clouds.

HIGHLAND — I did not personally see the UFO, but pictures and reports were on our local news station KTVI Channel 2 in St. Louis, MO. on Sunday night May 11, 2009. Blogs were also on the net concerning this sighting. I wish you would investigate as this area frequently has UFO sightings.

[ad#ad-1]

KTVI Report: Some residents in Illinois may have spotted a strange sight in the sky above Highland late Sunday night. Fox 2 received a few emails about some odd-looking lights. Some are going so far as to call the lights a UFO. FOX 2 made several attempts to confirm with the state and city police, but officials say they have not heard anything about the lights. (About 20 MI East of Downtown St. Louis

GRANITE CITY — KTVI Blog (Witness Report): Saturday night my 12 year old son was asleep in his room making noises like he had a bad dream. His dad went in there and asked: “what’s wrong?” His answer was “there is a blue hovering light above me.” He is in his room not outside, but woke up to a blue light and was freaking out. His father assumed that he had played his Xbox 360 so much that the blue hovering disc above him was a dream. I assumed it was a police car that drove by with lights on, but I woke up this morning and see the story on the news. When I called my husband at work this morning and told him what I saw on the news his words were: “You gotta be kidding me!”

Note: The above photo sent to KTVI TV is interesting, but it is unknown what the witness saw. Apparently several reports of the lights were received by KTVI TV. The blog mentioned on the news report could not be found. The witness report apparently occurred late Saturday night (May 9) and not Sunday when the other reports were received. Granite City is about 10 miles northeast of downtown St. Louis. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com

CHICAGO — The witness reports “It lit up right before my eyes, to the south of me on July 9, 2008, like a fluorescent light and then shut off.” It was closer than anything I have seen so far. It was only for one second at the most and I did get a picture.” Note similarity of both photos. Thanks to MUFON CMS and Ken Pfeifer MUFON N.J., http://www.heavensrangers.com

Elizabeth Fuller writes, “I’ve been looking at more high resolution pictures from the Pathfinder landing site, and this entire area appears to be a debris field of sculptures, all of which look very, very old and damaged.” At the bottom right hand corner of the image, just to the left of the three light rocks, there is another face that looks like an old man with a mustache. There are dozens of other faces of people (Aliens?)and animals throughout the image (I’m learning Photo Editor and hopefully will be able to send you enlargements of the images I’m looking at. Additionally, up near the top horizon (but below the peaks), across the width of the picture, there are structures that definitely do not look like rocks, but buildings. There appears to be a building complex at the top right, and other buildings and structures across the entire near-horizon view. Please enlarge and look carefully at all the “debris” in the foreground also, it’s definitely not all rocks.

These pictures are on the NASA website. How can they claim there is no evidence of life on Mars?? http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/MPF/parker/TwnPks_RkGdn_rite_high.jpg Thanks to Elizabeth Fuller Editors Note- There is a dark object in the sky at the upper left of the photo.

BASALT — William Puckett writes, “I had a long conversation with the witness’s mother about her 18 year old son who was out against his parents’ wishes to visit a friend. He returned about 2:30 AM, and was followed by a large light on his walk home on April 26, 2009. The light came close and shined a beam of light on him. He fled to his room by crawling through the window. The light continued to pursue him and “rendered him motionless.” The boy said that he saw small beings approach. They were about 4 feet tall with “legs that were reversed.”

The encounter lasted about 15 minutes. The parents both awoke at the time and heard a roar outside like a tornado, but they did not arise to check out the disturbance. The next day one of her son’s friends mentioned the sighting to the mother. She then questioned her son and he related his story. He drew some diagrams of the craft and of the entities. The mother said that her son does not lie or tell stories..

[ad#ad-1] 

Note: William Puckett requested that the witness look at the area where the alleged craft ( Unidentified Flying Object or UFO ) was located to see if any disturbance was present (burn marks, dead vegetation, etc). I recommended collection of samples and that photos be taken if any disturbance was located. The witness provided this sketch of his sighting. The witness’s mother added, “My husband and I checked out the area and did not see anything unusual. No burn marks or any weird marks on the tree that we could see. My son always slept with his window unlocked, but now both of his windows are locked. I know this has him scared and me too in so many ways.” Listen to Clip of Interview With Witness’s Mother (MP3)

I wanted to explain the picture. The yellow ball in the center was the energy field. If you zoom in you can see how he drew the energy force beams pulsating. The stick person his him in comparison. He has a really bad cough. He says he doesn’t feel well. I have not seen any marks on him. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com
