-
- Type: I
-
- Date: Since early 2007. Cases reported in March 2007
-
- Location: Luis Munoz Marin International Airport, Carolina,
P.R.
-
- Time: Daylight hours; at night between 8:20 p.m. to 8:30
p.m.
-
- Witness: Airport worker (The pseudonym "Mr. Rodriguez"
is used here, as the witness is fearful of being dismissed should his real
name become known).
-
- Evidence: None
-
- Brief Description of Object: Round light larger than
an airplane, very bright; other lights of greater intensity and size, white
in color, triangle shaped.
-
- Summary: Mr. Rodriguez (pseudonym) works at one of the
airport's offices. He has a view of the new airport control tower from
his window, as well as of El Yunque and other landmarks. Rodriguez claims
that this year, some lights have been seen hovering over the new tower,
remaining static and then disappearing. These lights are either white or
red in color (Note: researcher Ana Rios has seen lights similar to those
described by Mr. Rodriguez from her apartment in Isla Verde, and which
appear to be triangular when making a turn). Rodriguez also claims to see
a very large, powerful light between 8:20-8:30 pm, white and triangular
shaped. He compares this light to the brightness of an airliner belonging
to San Martin Air, adding that the UFO's light is even stronger than the
lights on this aircraft. He says that whenever he's with a customer and
sees the lights, he points them out and they too are startled. When he
makes inquiries among pilots, they always say they've seen nothing at all.
(He believes they've been told not to speak for fear of dismissal). The
triangular UFO impresses the witness greatly for its size, shape and brightness.
When he realized that at the time that his sightings usually occur, there
is also a scheduled American Eagle flight at 8:20 pm toward Vieques, he
decided to board this flight with a skeptical friend to see the object
more closely and to get his friend to believe him.

-
- Rodriguez says that as the American Eagle flight gained
altitude, it was necessary to look toward Route #3, as this is where the
light appears to emerge from, toward the beach area. The UFO approached
the plane sufficiently [to show] that it was larger than the airliner and
made a U-turn, heading toward Fajardo,and then Vieques, as though heading
for nearby islands. Rodriguez says that he alerted all of the passengers
and asked the co-pilot about the strange light. He replied [in English]:
"Forget about it", which led Rodriguez to believe that the pilots
are forbidden to discuss what is going on, or else did not want to alarm
them.
-
- Comments: Rodriguez wants a group of researchers to go
with cameras and turn them on as soon as the passenger plane gains altitude,
focusing them on Route #3 and El Yunque in order to record it. He added
that the same event happens on the return trip from Vieques to San Juan.
