- THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF SWISSAIR UFO NEAR MISS
-
- KENNEDY AIRPORT -- Two friends of mine Bob Durant and
Don Berliner investigated one of the most significant cases concerning
UFOs in recent years. At 5:07 PM on August 9, 1997, a Swissair Boeing
747 experienced a "near miss" with a cylindrical "glowing
white" object traveling almost directly toward the cockpit at very
high speed. The airliner was in level flight at 23,000 feet and cruising
at 340 knots indicated speed in a cloudless sky. Six weeks after the event,
the story was disseminated by the Associated Press new service. According
to the AP account, the National Transportation Safety Board (NSTB) identified
the object as a weather balloon, citing a report from another airline of
a weather balloon in the same general area. The airplane was a Boeing 747,
a wide-bodied along range airliner with Swiss national registration. The
flight left Philadelphia International Airport at 4:50 PM and landed at
Boston Logan Airport 57 minutes later. The cockpit crew consisted of Captain
Phil Bobet, with 15,000 hours flying time, First Officer copilot G with
7,500 hours and Flight Engineer K. Captain Bobet was sitting in the left
pilot's seat when sixteen minutes after takeoff they were over New York
Kennedy Airport in clear weather. The two pilots almost simultaneously
saw the UFO. The following dialogue is from the tape recording made by
the FAA. This permits later investigation of communications where accidents
or unusual events occur.
-
- Swissair Flight 127 (Probably Capt. Bobet speaking.)
"ATC Swissair 127." ATC = Boston Air Route Traffic Control Center,
Danbury Sector 22: "Go ahead Swissair." Swissair: "Yes
sir, I don't know what it was, but it just over flew just like a couple
of hundred feet above us. I don't know if it was a rocket or whatever.
But incredibly fast. Opposite direction." ATC: "In the opposite
direction?" Swissair: "Yes sir, and the time was two-one-zero-seven
(5:07 PM local time). It was too fast to be an airplane." ATC: "OK,
thank you." To Houston 986, another airplane in the vicinity of Swissair
127: "Did you see anything like a missile in your area, perhaps off
to your right?" H 986: "I'll take a good look, but if it's going
that fast, I probably won't get a chance. We just saw Swissair go by a
minute ago." Swissair 127: "We had no warning. It was way too
fast!"
-
- The radio report was so provocative that the Boston Flight
Standards office was notified while the airplane was still airborne and
a FFA officer was sent to meet the crew. The Federal Bureau of Investigation
(FBI), the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), along with the
FAA met the pilots. Normally this type of meeting is unheard of. The
next day the Swissair crew was interviewed separately by four government
agents. Bob Durant a commercial airline pilot later interviewed the Captain
Bobet who said, he was clearly dismayed the balloon explanation. "He
thought it preposterous!"
-
- Captain Bolet thought, "The path of the UFO was
from opposite direction, slightly right. Estimated horizontal distance-between
First Officer's seat and engine #3, vertical distance between 100 and 200
feet above the aircraft. "At the same time, I saw the First Officer
plunging his head down towards his knees. The Flight Officer mentioned
later that he thought he would get hit by the object. The UFO speed appeared
to be very high. The object was white and balloons are dark. Balloons
fly for about an hour and the last one had been launched ten hours earlier.
Thanks to R. J. Durant and Don Berliner. A detailed report is available
from the Fund for UFO Research.
-
- Editor's Note: Several terrible accidents have occurred
in recent years that may be related to near collisions with UFOs. The
crew of Egyptian Flight 990 apparently put their aircraft into a steep
dive possibly as the result of a near miss. News accounts speculated that
a pilot wanted to commit suicide and caused the death of those aboard.
I feel it is more likely that Flight 990 took evasive action to avoid
hitting an approaching Unidentified Flying Object similar to the one that
almost hit Swissair 127. Allegedly, Egyptian pilot Gameel el-Batouty's
said a prayer "Now I put my faith in God's hands" just prior
to diving the aircraft. The plane dived for 40 seconds and seemed to pull
up before failing to recover. Many of us might of stated something similar.

- PENNSYLVANIA LIGHTS
-
- BETHLEHEM -- Margaret Kichline writes, "I went outside
about 4:00 AM on July 23, 2000, with my binoculars since it was pretty
clear. Fifteen minutes later, I saw a bright yellowish-white object right
below the moon that was the size and brightness of Polaris. It was moving
very fast traveling toward Ursa Minor. I would say it took 20 seconds
before it was out of my view. At 4:30 AM, another object identical to
the first flew directly above the moon heading north toward Polaris. About
5:00 AM , I saw three similar fast moving flying objects, except they were
not as bright, and were moving in same general area of the sky. There
were no sounds, and no strobing lights. They were just steady glowing
objects. Thanks to: Peggy K. vixalien@enter.net.

- FLORIDA RODS
-
- TAMPA -- Skywatch reports that a lady notified them that
on August 7, 2000, "I have just seen the most remarkable site when
I saw three rod-shaped craft in a huge triangular formation with the largest
in the center." I do not believe they are stars because you can see
stars beyond them. The stars are not nearly as bright and colorful. They
are not rod-shaped and are not anywhere near as large as these appear to
be. They appear to be over Tampa with the central and largest object facing
north. There is a misty cloud cover to the west of them and there are
what appear to be two of the other, smaller rod shaped vehicles just to
the north of the large triangular formation. These two are also quite
elongated and bright. They do not appear to be moving at all." I
watched for a full five minutes. They still haven't moved and I have never
seen any stars in the Florida sky that are elongated or truly rod-shaped
as these are. They look like skinny, colorful vertical bars. There is
no noise. The streetlight behind my house blinked off an on the whole
time I was standing there, never fully lighting up or sustaining light.
At first I saw what I thought was a shooting star, but it appeared as
a very THICK band of white light shooting from north to south just east
of the large triangular formation. It wasn't falling down -- it crossed
north/south." Thanks to: DRxDON Skywatch International, INC.

- VIRGINIA CONTRAILS
-
- HAMPTON ROADS - Contrails are intense almost every day,
but the real spooky thing is that, on any given plane, the contrails stop,
start, stop, start, etc., leaving a pattern of disjointed trails what the
heck is THAT? The contrails are particularly intense over Virginia Beach.
It looks like tic-tac-toe almost every day. Thanks to Steven Wallace Steve
xcongressx@yahoo.com.
-
- Editors Note: We are getting reports of contrails from
all over the world. If anyone owns an expensive video cameral with 3ccd
please take photos. If you own a plane get air samples.

- Dave Fugere writes, "I have had Chemtrails sightings
and taken pictures. Once you've had this strange stuff happen to you there
is no way you can rest and blow it off without wanting to do a lot more
observing. I videotaped rods on film six months before I even heard about
them. I never thought I would ever be telling someone that I saw an airplane
vanish in front of my eyes but it happened two weeks ago. Almost every
night between 9 and 11:00 PM we have one or two planes that fly over my
house with red and green lights. I was watching with my binoculars and
I looked down for a for a second. When I looked back up and it was gone!
You and others are now reporting things similar to what I saw.
-
- On August 7, 2000, I saw a white fireball in the northern
sky falling at a certain trajectory and then it just seemed to drop at
a steep angle. I fully expected it to hit not far away and was waiting
for the explosion as it disappeared over my house. I was surprised to
see it still burning very bright, but it didn't leave a trail like a shooting
star does and was much slower. This is the third time this year I have
seen one like this but this one was the brightest and biggest and burned
the longest. Thanks to :DaveDFugere@goesp.com (Dave Fugere)

- TEXAS DAYLIGHT CYLINDER
-
- AUSTIN -- We had a daylight sighting of a large cylindrical
object which lasted 30 seconds before the object disappeared on June 30,
2000, at 8:30 PM, which is still broad daylight. My husband and I spent
a week on Lake Travis in a subdivision called Lakeway. There were jets
and light planes flying to and from Austin's airport. My eye was drawn
to a very bright white object which suddenly appeared flying rather quickly
to the southeast at four to five thousand feet. The western sun reflected
on the object and we were able to see the side of a large white cylindrical
object with a very distinct round, flat rear end, also bright white. After
about thirty seconds we saw the round rear of the craft enter the only
cloud in the sky and we lost sight of it altogether. There was no noise
made by the craft. The two areas in which my husband and I disagree are
the angle in which the object flew, he says at a tilt and I say parallel
to land, and what the front of the craft might have looked like. My husband
believes the front was flat and I just couldn't tell because the object
appeared suddenly and the front end was past our point of determination.
My eighteen year old son has begun to look up since our sighting and on
August 6, 2000, told me he saw what appeared to be a falling star. The
*star's* trajectory lasted much longer than that of shooting stars he has
seen in the past. It also flashed a blue light during it's trajectory
which took up the entire sky he was able to see. Thanks to Craig and Carol
Cowgill

- WASHINGTON LIGHTS
-
- GIG HARBOR -- Linda Lull writes I have been observing
and following the chemtrail story for the past eighteen months. Lately,
I noticed these light objects going in and out of sight. The most I can
make out of them is a shinning light, then they total disappear from sight.
I have been observing this activity for some time now. It does seem to
be getting more frequent. Yesterday, I spotted the bright light twice
in two different locations. I have noticed these light objects being visible
than not visible around Chemtrails. I did not know what to make of it?
I might add I'm a former Flight Attendant. Thanks to: Linda Lull, lindalull@hotmail.com.

- CALIFORNIA LIGHTS
-
- VICTORVILLE -- Mr. R. called the MUFON San Bernardino
Hotline to report that on August 9, 2000, his wife looked out the window
and noticed two very bright white lights swooping back and forth in the
sky at 11:30 PM. She alerted him to the lights and he went outside his
front door and was met by a blinding white light that illuminated his house
and street. The light suddenly went out and he noticed both his outdoor
mercury vapor lights and street lights were out. As he stood in the total
darkness, he was again surrounded by the intensely bright light that lasted
about a minute then once again blinked out of sudden darkness. About a
minute and a half later he heard a rumbling sound like a sonic boom, that
sounded like the noise that sometimes precedes an earthquake. The windows
in his house rattled, but the ground never shook. Following the vibration,
he looked towards the northeast sky and saw what appeared to be two faint
white "falling stars" that were "falling" side by side
and disappeared at the same moment. Mr. R. reported that there were no
visual observations of normal aircraft or helicopters in the sky during
the event and no sound was heard, with the exception of rumbling. Thanks

- ENGLAND UFO SEEN
-
- NORTH LONDON - A high flying slow moving UFO was observed
Friday afternoon on August 11, 2000, with a flashing light as it went into
high cloud. Some observers thought the flashing light was actually light
reflecting from sun. The shape discernible was egg shape on its side.
It was not a plane, its possible the object was a weather balloon but
both the shape and movements didn't seem right. Too low to be satellite.
The object was visible for about 20 minutes until it didn't appear to emerge
from cloud. Thanks to DAVE <David@qthlondon.freeserve.co.uk and gerry@farshore.force9.co.uk.

- AUSTRALIA CONTRAILS WITH UFOs
-
- BYRON BAY -- BBCIC News reports a professional photographer
took two rolls of films August 3, 2000, of a very heavy Chemtrails activity
over Byron Bay. When he developed the films he found many 'floating objects'
between the Chemtrails. Shlomo, who was formerly with the Israeli Air
Force and was teaching UFO's at UCLA, California inspected the slides and
determined that the 'floating objects' are classical UFO's. As the Australian
public is not very familiar with the subject of UFO's, Shlomo has decided
not to discuss the UFO's locally in order not to confuse the Chemtrail
issue at the moment. Shlomo is now negotiating to post these spectacular
UFO-Chemtrail photos on the Jeff Rense website. Thanks to Debra Livingston

-
- WRIGHT PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE -- June Crain called
detective Sergeant James Clarkson in 1997, to share her firsthand account
of working at Wright Patterson AFB from 1942 to 1952. June claims to have
handled unusual metal parts of a flying saucer, taken dictation from Werner
Von Braun, and been told of three UFO crashes. She claims to have held
a Top Secret Q clearance and been asked to sign a "TOO HOT" memo
as a result of a careless Master Sergeant announcing he had just flown
in from New Mexico with alien bodies and wreckage. According to Dr. Bob
and Ryan Woods, "Her story continues to validate the contents of the
Majestic documents in both powerful overt and subtle ways. June was the
only known surviving member of the parachute group of Wright Field. She
passed away on August 23, 1998, yet she left plenty of evidence behind

- MARS FACE ANOMALY INVESTIGATIONS
-
- Lan Fleming writes I've posted an evaluation of Mark
Kelly's orthorectified Mars Face enhancement. The enhancement was intended
to show what the Face would look like at the resolution of the MGS camera
but at the lighting and viewing angles of the lower-resolution Viking images.
The Viking images were acquired under more suitable conditions for viewing
a face than the MGS half-profile illuminated images taken from beneath
the "chin." I think the new work is valid and the result is
a powerful representation of a humanoid face. Based on comparisons with
the Viking images, I don't see any justifiable way to jiggle the lighting
or proportions of the MGS Face image in a way that could arrive at a depiction
that differs significantly from the Kelly enhancement. This is not the
result of Kelly digital trickery. since he neither added features not
in the original image nor removed features that were present. The match
in lighting and positions of features with the Viking images is good.
I think the Kelly enhancement may eventually compel NASA to acquire a better
image of the Face. We need NASA to take over head images of the Mars Face
to avoid a major public relations crisis. See the Tom Van Flandern web
site at http://www.vgl.org/webfiles/mars/face/newface.htm. Thanks to:
Lan Fleming
-
- Editor's Note: These enhanced images make the face appear
much more real. It struck me that the whole ancient area was a type of
religious center similar to the Egyptian and Mexican pyramid complexes.
The face by itself could be an accident, but the entire complex is much
more convincing. I have visited the pyramids near Cairo and Teotituacan
near Mexico City. Each has a central road or canal that may be similar
to the Mars Cydonia pyramid complex. The road is on a \ 45 degree angle
as I look at it.

- FRANCE AND WORLD WEATHER CHANGE?
-
- POITIERS -- A French researcher writes, "The weather
phenomena that you refer too are certainly part of the climate changes
that appear to be accelerating, as up till very recent months the major
multinationals have fought them rather than looking for ways to alleviate
the conditions that produce them. There is now little argument among the
well informed about the FACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE - the argument is about
what it will produce on the ground -- crocodiles in Pennsylvania and flooding
of London, etc. One long ago proposed model has to do with increased cloud
cover over land due to the water vapor being blown off an increasingly
hot ocean. I have been observing that factor for my last ten years in
Europe. The climate wherein, I live has totally changed in the eight years
that I have been here -- there is no summer as it has been conventionally
known here for centuries of recently recorded history AND for the last
two years no Winter to speak of -- not one daytime frost last winter AND
it can be warm enough in any month for us to eat out on our back terrace
-- something we did last Christmas and the preceding years New Year's Day.
My last guest reported great shock throughout northern Italy as she has
just returned from a villa outside of Milano and for a month, no summer
as the people normally know it. Our locals are increasingly disturbed.
Two other facts which you can check out with scientific friends on the
NASA side -- Sun spot activity is the highest on record and indicates a
cycle that requires new thinking -- this certainly is influencing the climate.
There have also been a rash of comets crashing into the Sun. And the real
kicker -- historical climatic research indicates a 7 degree change in earth
climate can occur within a decade. The normally slow system once it enters
a chaotic phase can shift enormously in a very short time. Our disregard
of ecological boundaries is a playing with dynamite. I would guess that
strange diseases is part of the general upset, BUT would appreciate any
data on those that cross your screen as I have tracked things of that sort
for over 3 and a half decades. Thanks to: Ira User886114
