F4-Phantom Weapons Control Technicians In The USAF Spot Three Oval UFOs Report/Telephone Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

You can listen to the telephone interview I did with one of the eyewitnesses at this link: https://jmp.sh/U9Iy3Yc

Date: August 1978 Time: 5:30 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of objects: 3

Shape of objects: Oval.

Full Description of event/sighting: Driving from home in Wrightwood, CA to work at George AFB in a 2-door sedan with 2 co-workers eastbound on Hwy 18 between Sheep Creek Rd and Hwy 395 near Phelan, CA.

Myself and other witnesses were F4-Phantom Weapons Control Technicians in the USAF. My eastbound view was of mountains on horizon with first glow of sunrise behind mountains.

Weather calm and completely clear. 1st large oval rises up from directly behind mountains due east from me.

Motion is slow, floating like a blimp or balloon. At first I thought it was a large blimp with a mirror-like exterior reflecting the sunlight (sun was below the eastern horizon during the entire encounter), object was extremely bright, yet had a distinct oval outline.

After rising a few degrees above mountains object stopped all motion. Total time to rise up was about 2 minutes. Second identical object then began to rise just to the left of the first object.

Second object moved identically to first, then stopped next to first at equal altitude. Third identical looking object then began to rise just to right of first object, at same slow rate, until it was at equal altitude with other 2 objects.

All three objects remained still for about 2 more minutes. Very curious sight at this time, but all witnesses still thought objects were blimps.

Right-most object then begins to rise slowly above others, stops completely, then moves from a complete stop to a point slightly above the horizon almost directly due south of us (visible out the right side of the car) in about 2 or 3 seconds then comes to a complete stop again.

No acceleration or deceleration was apparent. Middle object then does exactly the same, stopping next to the other above the southern horizon. Third object then repeats the same exact maneuver.

When all 3 were stopped hovering next to each other then all 3 objects slowly descended towards the ground until disappearing on the southern horizon.

Objects retained their extreme brightness throughout the entire encounter, even when in a position near the southern horizon where there was no sunlight to reflect in my direction.

All witnesses agreed with each other not to speak of the sighting due both to fear of ridicule, and due to the fact that all of us were under orders to speak of any potential UFO sightings only to our commanding officer (to my knowledge all AF personnel, including myself and the witnesses, at the time were required to sign a statement acknowledging the order upon enlisting in the AF).

You can listen to the telephone interview I did with one of the eyewitnesses at this link: https://jmp.sh/U9Iy3Yc

Thank you to the witness for the report and for talking with me on the telephone.

UFO Making Unusual Maneuvers Above North Highlands California (Written Report/Telephone Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Listen to the telephone interview with Jeff at: https://jmp.sh/20kEfL7

Date:  May 12, 2004

Time:  Evening.

Brian Vike’s Note: I have Jeff Challender’s UFO footage on DVD somewhere packed up in a box, I did look, but there is just to much to go through, so I can’t provide the video in this posting.

The Late Jeff Challender of Project Prove.

Jeff Challender (Project Prove) reports, "on the 12th of May 2004, my wife and her friend were out on front lawn as my 17 year old son got off the school bus.

A helicopter flew overhead and when they looked up, an unusual object was also seen that was much higher and further away.

My wife called me out and it looked like a silvery Mylar helium balloons. I asked my wife to bring me our camcorder so that I might capture the event on tape. I turned on the camcorder, and aimed in the direction of the object.

When I found it in the viewfinder, I zoomed in to 500x, the maximum this camcorder is capable of and the object was bright, and flashing on and off.

It was moving east, whilst the wind was SSW, 10 - 15 mph. As the object proceeded east, it became obvious that it would soon pass behind a tree in a neighbor's yard. The tree limbs offered a point of reference to gauge speed and direction with greater accuracy.

The stationary tree showed that the object was not only tacking across the wind, but "skipping" side to side, and apparently, up and down as well.

I am reminded of Kenneth Arnold's 1947 description of his UFO sighting. He stated that the objects he saw behaved like a "saucer skipping on water". This object behaved in much the same manner, although it never presented any appearance of a saucer shape.

Throughout the event, it was a flashing light of varying brightness. In addition, the flashing was uneven. After two minutes of recording, the object disappeared behind a tree, and did not return.

We cannot identify it. The witnesses were, myself age 51, my wife Janet age 47, her friend Sharon Springs age 45, and my son Max age 17.

We are all willing to swear before almighty God that this statement is a true and accurate account of what we observed with our own eyes. Thanks to Jeff Challender.

Thank you to the late Jeff Challender for taking the time with me to do the interview. Jeff ran Project Prove, in which Jeff would go through NASA’s footage of their space missions looking for evidence that NASA was covering up information of UFOs.

Huge Triangular UFO Over Peterborough Ontario (Excellent Diagrams/Maps/Audio Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Telephone Interview can be found at the following link: https://jmp.sh/L3brNtg

In the early morning of July 5, 2004 at approximately 4:00 a.m. at Peterborough Ontario Canada my cousin and myself observed a fast moving object overhead and then it disappear over an area called Little lake.

A few moments later, we observed a triangle of three lights (bright). We thought it was just the stars at first, but then the lights we thought were stars began to move, it then disappeared back towards Little Lake (easterly direction)

Now fast forward 2 days at approximately 3.30 a.m. on Lafayette Ave in Peterborough.

Earlier in the evening I had observed a bright streak in the sky toward the east, so I was watching the eastern sky close.

All of a sudden I observed 2 small bright fast moving objects moving to the east. Very fast, I might add, so here I'm watching towards the east not paying attention directly overhead. All of a sudden everything just seemed to get real quiet. Eerie quiet.

So I'm looking east, then I just get these creepy feelings that something was watching me, you know what I mean.

I turned and looked down the street towards the General Electric plant (900 feet approximately) I swear I couldn't hear the background noises you usually hear traffic dogs etc..

So now I notice the glow from the street light seemed to be changing color on the cars on the street. Then I look up, my god there it is, coming right over the house. This thing is massive !

I swear I could have hit it with a sling shot. So its kind of slowly idling east, at like I don't know 5 km maybe.


The craft stops, then starts going sideways now towards the GE plant, it seemed as wide as the distance between GE and our house.

I don't know much about this stuff, but I swear this is one evil looking outfit with 3 lights. (brownish orange very dim) One at each point of the triangle, not that it is pointed, but at the ends.

The ends are rounded off, I will send a little drawing I made. It seems to be a blue black color, but flat no shine, almost a rough finish, a circular dome dead center of the bottom in a hexagon type enclosure.

No light or glowing color on this dome. This is set in an indented area that almost had the look of the surface of a pool. I could now see the one side that appeared to have some kind of indentations, probably doors or some kind of hatch.

It sat there for probably 3 minutes, but seemed like a lifetime.

Then it just moved so fast you couldn't even tell the direction it went. Anyway, I have seen it twice since then, but it was a lot higher up. Probably 1500 feet.

Maybe its just me or maybe something else, but I know they know I saw them. I don't think these guys are real friendly. I could just feel it. Anyway couple observations.

Next day my neighbors Dodge Intrepid battery was completely zapped. He had to replace the alternator and battery the next day.

His Olds wouldn't start either, the alternator and battery fried. His name is (removed) and I'm sure he would verify that. My Camry's two month old Kenwood stereo fried. Rear light wiring fried.

Battery was completely dead by 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon, so I recharged it and it came back to life.

Still had problems with the wiring, so I had it repaired at Russell Toyota in Peterborough 489 dollars.

One other thing I would like to add, there was the weak aroma of like a burnt transformer in the air for a few minutes after the craft left.

I might add as well I went into the back yard and alley behind the house to get a good view of this thing because I couldn't see all three lights from the street because of its size.

Sighting Dates And Times.

July 5, 2004...4:00 a.m.

July 7, 2004 - Close sighting as per sketches 3:30 a.m.

July 17, 2004 - 1500 feet approximately details hard to see just shape and 3 light. Moved east then drifted towards G.E

August 26, 2004 - Triangle lights looked like brighter than usual stars moving east.

Additional Information:

Well the first object was moving very fast but slowing to some extent.

It was moving from the west towards the east and dropping until we lost sight of it behind the buildings. It was an orange colored object. Very bright !

We would have been looking in a North to Northeast direction. I get mixed up with the directions.

The altitude I would say, when first in view was probably 5,000 feet descending to 1,000 feet. It came on what seemed to be an exact path of the triangle lights.

The first triangular lights seemed to be a bit bigger and clearer, but I had no idea until I saw the one over the house how big it was.

What I found out today is that General Electric here supposedly stopped making reactor parts years ago, but I found a website while searching that sheds some light on this: http://www.cnwc-cctn.ca/gefuel.html (site not there anymore at the address given)

I asked people what they do there at the plant and nobody seems to know. I have only lived here a while so I thought they might have been making fridges or something.

At the gate to GE on Monaghan drive it seems really secure. This is a huge plant

I can see the plant right from my (removed) but that street it is on called Albert and is a half mile long and the plant runs the distance of the street. I guess there are only 700 workers in the plant now but it did employ upwards of 7,000 at one time.

They make fuel pellets for the Candu Reactors, but you can't find it on one single GE site anywhere..

About the time: It seemed like it was 3 minutes but when I came back in the house it was 5:17 by my computer. So one and a half hours passed roughly.

This thing was directly overhead but it sort of stopped then drifted towards the plant. What I mean by directly overhead (the front) I assume it was the front seemed directly over and inline with the driveway.

I had to go into the backyard, into the alley to see it all and that's when I got the feeling they knew I was there. Then I went running back out to the street and saw a girl running like heck towards the other street (Chamberlaine) It rotated slightly to its left as it drifted over the plant.

I still get Goosebumps just thinking about it. The front moved till it was almost out past Jackson Ave. I'll see if I can do a picture over a map if I can find one.

Unusual sensations: Well other than being freaked out I seemed to have my hearing kind of muffled. Like I had a head cold sort of effect. A couple times I had the momentary feeling like I was lost or didn't know where I was

Weather: Its always been overcast, partly cloudy. But the sky seems to clear up just at the right time.

See what really scared the "ba jezus" out of me, was that I was watching to the east looking for those lights to reappear and the thing kind of creeped up behind me.

So I was really startled when I looked up so it was just moving dead slow at this point from the west.

Street lights: The reflections on the cars changed from the usual glow, to a more I guess orange glow.

I saw the shadows on the street change a bit so I knew there was something above me and I looked up and just thought, Oh my god, what the heck is that.

I don't think anyone would have heard me scream if I did scream any way. Its like noise was being suppressed somehow. Like some kind of silence field around the thing and maybe I was in that field? Not sure.

Would be 3 cars I know of that had electrical screw ups the next day. I don't talk to a lot of people around here and the flood happened the next day, so 24 hours after the sighting everything was so crazy.

I sure had some weird dreams and stuff since this happened. I seem to really notice the shape in architecture and stuff.

My wife says its like I've had some little psychic twinge switched on. Like I'll know the phone is going to ring before it does things like that.

Anyway here are some maps so you can get a feel for the layout of the area .The area in Grey is the GE Plant I tried to show where the Triangle stopped then moved sideways until it was over G.E. 2 of the maps are just for reference kind of.

A Couples Amazing And Frightening UFO Experience Billerica Massachusetts (Audio Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Audio report below for Billerica, Massachusetts - Large UFO Lifts Up Witness Off Home Deck.

https://jmp.sh/NmVMmdV

Text Report Below:

December 2004

Brian Vike's Note: At the end of this initial letter from the witness there is the report which was filed to MUFON in which the fellow sent along to me. This is a fascinating story.

Hello Brian, I thought you might interested in this UFO report I filed to MUFON in December of 2004, I cant explain why but Anne and I want to finally share our experience with others. Since this sighting strange things have been happening in the house for instance, the microwave oven would start beeping at random, were on our 3rd oven.

A shelf fell off the wall in the kitchen which I know doesn't sound that strange but it's the type that the fingers on the side brackets have to be tapped down in the rails, I installed it and remember I had to tap the brackets down with a little force, for the brackets to fall off you would have to tap up on them. Strange sounds would come from the TV and radio. Anne would see pot covers fly of the shelf and land several feet away.

Many other things happened but I can't get into them right now, plus it would usually happen in the day and I work full time, Anne would tell me when I got home. Anne also had regressive hypnosis and her account was the same. I tried the hypnosis, but I wasn't receptive to it.

One other thing did happen that I remembered a few days later, when Anne was on the floor I remembered giving her CPR, after I got her off the floor and on to the couch I looked into the kitchen and saw what looked like snow or fine pellets of Styrofoam pouring in through the sliding door ( I guess didn't shut it all the way).

After icing my hand for awhile I told Anne I'm going in the garage to get the shop vac to clean up the mess when I looked again all the white stuff was gone and the small carpet in the kitchen was dry. Also the white light outside looked like it flowed like a liquid wrapping itself around everything, did not notice any shadows. By the way this happened in Billerica, Massachusetts. I know it sounds incredible but this really happened, hope to hear from you soon.

Below: The Actual Sighting Report Which Was Filed To MUFON. 

(Recount of a UFO sighting experienced by Robert and Anne).

At approximately 7:10 on Sunday night (12/12/04) I was in my kitchen preparing dinner, my friend Anne was in the living room working on a crossword puzzle. I have a sliding glass door which leads to a deck off of the kitchen, Anne and I just got home so the curtain was not drawn yet.

Out of the corner of my right eye I saw a huge ball of brilliant white light coming towards the house from the west, it was above treetop level but not by much. In my mind I compared the size to be like looking at a full moon on a clear night maybe bigger and as it neared it got bigger and bigger. I called to Anne to take a look, she was as surprised as I was.

We went out onto the deck to get a better look because of the glare from internal lights on the glass door. It stopped above the house and was absolutely huge, 2 maybe 3 football fields. The white light engulfed everything. One thing I noticed was that the light did not hurt our eyes. It hovered a few minutes with absolutely no noise, then all of a sudden a pale blue light came out of the bottom of this thing, the thing that was odd about the blue light is that it formed a perfect square on the deck.

The size was big enough to fully engulf Anne. All of a sudden Anne started to lift up off the deck, I immediately opened the sliding door with my left hand, jumped up and wrapped my right around Anne's waist, with a hooking motion I threw Anne into the kitchen then ran in and shut the door, when I looked back the light was gone.

Anne was out cold for about a minute, when she came too she said all she remembered seeing the blue light and hearing me say that the blue light was square, that's when she must of blacked out. Shortly after Anne awoke the phone rang, I was so shook up I couldn't answer it so Anne did. The call was from my sister she was in her car with her husband about 4 to 5 miles south east of us.

She told Anne she saw a ball of white light with a trailing blue tail. At first she thought it was a meteorite but ruled that out because it was so low and moving parallel with the ground. Soon after the call ( which by the way according to my caller id the time was 7:21) I noticed my right hand was burning and there were a couple of blisters below my middle finger. (pictures attached) for some reason that I cant explain I knew the blisters would be gone in the morning, which they did, so I had Anne take a picture of my hand with my digital camera.

I wish I had the camera with me on the deck but everything happened too fast. Anne and I are still shook up about all this but are willing to meet and answer any questions you may have.

UFO Hovers Over Base Adak Island Alaska (Letter And Envelope/Audio Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

You can listen to the entire story/interview at the following link, it's a short clip: https://jmp.sh/Df9Inbc

Location Information: Adak is an island midway along the Aleutian Island chain southwest of mainland Alaska at 177 degrees west. At 52 degrees north it is not exactly arctic, nor is it temperate, but it is nearly always buffeted by cold, wet winds.

Most of the wind is generated by an endless series of cyclonic storms. The weather report for aviators almost never varies: Winds 25-40 gusting to 60, mostly cloudy with layers at 800 feet, 1200 feet, 2000 feet.

Visibility 7 miles, rain. Temp 40 degrees F (plus or minus 5 degrees for most of the year). It is bounded on the east and the west by volcanoes.

To the west is Kanaga Volcano, a beautiful perfect cone, and to the east by Great Sitkin, which nearly always is at least smoking and erupted in the early 1970's.

Map of Adak Island below:

Brian Vike had a nice telephone conversation with an ex-serviceman by the name of Art.

Art was stationed on Adak Island Aleutian Islands and was part of the crash crew for the fire department.

One late night in January 1976 at the airport, the control tower personnel rang the crash crew and told the members that an aircraft was going to be landing.

The crash crew members jumped up and peered out the window and did not see an airplane of any kind, but rather a glowing object approximately 50 feet across. (Art told me it was the brightest light that he has ever seen in his life)

Art said it was really eerie to watch, and the humming that came from the UFO, seemed to resonate throughout all of the crash teams bodies.

One has to remember that the crash team was still inside their building when they could feel the humming, but they eventually did move outside and stood approximately 100 feet away from this huge and extremely bright UFO which was hovering just over the tarmac pretty much in front of the control tower and of course all the men watching.

As everyone stood looking at this unidentified object, more bright lights about the size of a Volkswagen came from out of the hovering UFO and flew at an incredible fast rate of speed up to a communication station which was located on a nearby hill and sat stationary on it.

Another light went down and hovered over the bunkers. After a period of time the lights that were zipping around did come back to the main object and merged into it.

All of a sudden the large UFO took off at such a high rate of speed it left all of the personnel watching it dumfounded.

As Art mentioned, we have nothing here on earth that could move as quickly as this thing did and I would certainly be in agreement with Art on this.

The control tower called the crash crew and asked, "what the hell was that"! The crew replied back, it was a UFO!

Art remembers one of the personnel in the control tower cursing, as this was something one does not see every day, and he also mentioned that the object was as bright as the sun and lit up the entire area as if it was daylight.

The crash crew station below:

Art said, they were really frightened, they were young men at the time, Art being 19 years old.

The thirteen men stood looking at one another saying, "what the heck was that"?

Soon afterwards, or after the event was over which left a lot of men scratching their heads, the officer of the day showed up and confronted the men and told them what they all saw was "Ball Lightning".

Art's response to the officer of the day was, if that was ball lightning, then it had to be the largest display of lightning on record.

Art also said he would be more than willing to sit down and take a lie detector test to provide what he is relating is the truth.

He also mentioned that there were people taking pictures of the object. He could not remember who these people were, but when the pictures came back, Art remembers everyone looking at them and seeing nothing but a bright, camera flash type light in each of the photos.

One just wasn't able to see anything other than this brilliant white light.

Art also figures the object sat stationary just feet about the tarmac for 10 to 15 minutes. This object wasn't flying by, it was sitting still for a long period of time in front of all these men.

Also he said that the UFO incident was placed into the crash crews logbook and also in the control tower's logbook as well.

Art sat down on another day following the sighting and wrote a letter to his family back home. This was a personal letter, asking how things were, etc. then Art added that he saw a UFO. He described just a little about what he saw.

I asked Art if I should remove names and he told me to leave the letter as is. The family members who are mentioned in this letter have passed away. I have also added a link to the envelope the letter came in.

After the family members passed on a lot of their possessions were given back to family and this is how Art came into possession again of his letter.

View Art's letter he sent to the family: *Art's Letter To His Family*

You also can listen to the telephone interview I did with Art over the UFO sighting at Adak Island, Aleutian Islands Alaska. The interview is 23:31 minutes in length. More can be heard by listening to the audio portion of this report.

 Scanned photo of the envelope the letter came in below:

On a side note, separate from the sighting Art and the other men had. Art told me about another time when a Coast Guard ship docked at Adak Island where he was stationed, and he and others were handling the tying up of the Coast Guard ship.

After the ship was docked and the Coast Guard crew were coming off the ship, one of the sailors stopped and talked to Art and the other men, saying you would not believe what just happened as the Coast Guard ship was coming into port.

A UFO came straight up and out of the water in front of the ship and kept traveling straight up. The sailor said the craft was anywhere from 50 to 100 feet in width.

The ship immediately scrambled and went into general quarters. The sailor said he was as white as a sheet, from the sounds of things, the entire crew was pretty freaked out over the incident.

Also I should add, this UFO incident happened prior to what Art and the others folks witnessed.

Thank you to Art for a fascinating report, the letter, envelope and telephone conversation.

Thank you very much to Art for a great report.

Close Encounter With A Sasquatch Port Renfrew Vancouver Island British Columbia (Telephone Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Also in the telephone interview and in this audio clip the witness describes an encounter of an alien being.

Listen to Marie in the interview talk about her experiences, please visit the following link: https://jmp.sh/HUk5nEC

Date: Summer 2004

Time: Midday.

Location of Sighting: Port Renfrew Vancouver Island

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Sasquatch.

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi Brian! I just read the post about that Sasquatch sighting in Port Renfrew; the same thing happened to me in the summer of 2004. We had a mineral claim up an abandoned logging road just outside the village of Port Renfrew. One afternoon, I was alone at the trailer, my husband was working. I had to go to work myself in the afternoon, so I got in the truck and started driving down the old road.

Not even a 100 meters away, I saw what at first I thought to be a bear, because we knew there was a big and also a smaller bear hanging in the area. So I started to stop the truck. It had come out of the bush from the left side of the road, where the land drops quit a bit, and when it got in the middle of the road, it froze, seeing my truck coming. Then he bolted towards the other side of the road, where there was a rock face.

There's actually an animal trail going up that rock, and also another abandoned road on top of it which is totally over grown. I remember freezing myself, because my brain couldn't understand what I was seeing. It was impossible a bear could just come out of the bush, standing up, walk on the road and then start running, still standing on two legs, and hop up the trail! It was dark brown, about 7 foot tall, walked like a man.

I could see it clearly because by the time I stopped the truck, it wasn't even 20 meters away and it was on very a bright day. I saw it's face when it turned around to look at the truck. It really did look like Sasquatch depictions I have seen up to now. I remember getting of the truck and checking the road and up the trail if I could see anything. But I didn't find anything. I didn't hear or saw it again afterwards.

Also in the telephone interview and in this audio clip the witness describes an encounter of an alien being.

Two Huge Boomerang UFOs Hovering In The Sky Over Mineral Wells Texas (Written Report/Audio Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date: Around 1974 - 1975

Time: Daylight sighting.

To listen to the telephone interview with Penny please visit the following link: https://jmp.sh/Yxw7DzJ

In the below report and audio interview the eyewitness explains how no one seemed to care that there was a huge Boomerang UFO hovering in the sky near her grandparents farm, then when she went to town with her Grandpa there was another large Boomerang UFO hovering in the sky, and no one seemed to care the thing was there.

In the below report the witness is referring to the Massive Boomerang UFO And Alien Abduction Happening At Fort Stockton Texas (Written Report/Audio Interview) at: http://the-v-factor-paranormal.blogspot.ca/2009/10/fort-stockton-texas-boomerang-ufo-and.html

I just got finished reading your story on Coast to Coast, for the fourth time. I was in shock. It brought back a flood of memories for me.

I remember, in the 70's around 74 or 75, when I was a small child, about 4 or 5 years old, seeing something very similar.

We lived in Mineral Wells, Texas. My Dad worked at the AFB near there. I believe it was called Fort Wolters. It was closed down and my dad was relocated.

Anyway, I was at my grandparents and they lived right outside the city limits. Most of my time was spent playing in the West Texas sun.

One day, things were different though. There was this "thing", very similar to what you described (Fort Stockton Texas Case Above) and it just was there.

I was sitting in the shade of the pomegranate bush and I remember seeing it. At one point, I ran inside to tell my grandpa.

At my insistence, he came out and looked and basically said, "What about it” and went back in.

We went into town later that day and there was another one hovering near the gas plant there. That one he seemed more concerned about, as I kept asking him, what is that, and I was told not to worry about.

When we got to the store, I wanted to stay in the truck, but he told me no, I had to come in with him. I asked a few people in the store if they saw the UFO, and they said that they did.

That's it, no excitement, no nothing. I couldn't believe it.

When we got home, I went inside to go to the bathroom or something and it was just gone when I went back outside.

It had stayed there for hours. When I asked my grandparents about it at dinner time, I saw them kind of look at each other and he told me that I had a big imagination, but it "was" there. I know what I saw.

Military Jets Pursuing UFO And Strange Power Surge Fresno California (Audio Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

I interviewed both ladies who witnessed the sighting and below are two links, one for Sylia's interview and the other for Connie. I can't thank the two ladies enough for taking the time with me on the telephone. Also, I must apologize to Sylvia for calling her Connie several times during the interview. My brain was out in space.

Location of Sighting: Near Fresno Airport, Fresno, CA.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Round or Diamond Shaped.

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi Brian, my husband and I sent you our sighting report of 12 white orbs that we saw and photographed over Los Banos, California on August 28, 2005, which you posted. You have asked for older reports so I am attaching a sighting my girlfriend and I had in 1969 which involved two jets chasing after a UFO spotted near the Fresno, CA Airport.

Clovis California, June, 1969 - It was about 10:00 p.m. on a warm clear evening, mid June of 1969. I had just graduated from High School and my best friend and I were sitting outside my home enjoying the clear dark sky and brilliantly shining stars.

On a whim, we decided that we wanted to go to a late-night market in Fresno, about five miles away and buy some magazines to read. We got into my car and began to drive south to a shopping center near the Fresno Airport.

Along the way we decided to take a short cut on a small road adjacent to the airport which was flanked by an open field. We turned right onto the small two lane road and were now driving along side the field and which was several hundred feet away from the fenced area near the end of the airport runway, which we could see clearly, including buildings and planes of the local Air National Guard.

There were no street lights and the road was dark with no traffic, except for us. As we drove by we could see that most of the airport activities had stopped for the evening, which was normal, as no aircraft landed or took off from there at that time of night.

We continued down the road talking, when I noticed my friend leaning forward in the passenger seat staring up at something in the sky. She motioned to me to look out my driver's side window saying, "what is that?"

I looked out the window and saw an intense white strobing light hovering above, apparently keeping pace with my car. I slowed down and it continued to follow at the same pace. As our windows were down, we most certainly would have heard an engine, was it a plane, but it made no noise at all.

Not knowing what we were seeing, I pulled over, stopped the car and we both got out to take a better look. We were mesmerized by the intense white light of the object which now appeared diamond shaped and strobing quickly as it hovered above us.

It was hard to estimate it’s altitude and size, but we guessed at arms length it would have been the size of a basketball. By now two other cars had come up behind us and had pulled off the road to look as well. Within moments the object started to move away from us, and began to pick up speed. All of a sudden we heard the roar of jet engines and looked up to see two military jets lifting off the runway in hot pursuit of this object.

The jets passed directly over us, so close that we could see the landing gear retract. We watched as the jets tried to close on the object. We were in a flat area of land and we could clearly see the object and jets streaking away from us heading due west.

As the jets began to close on the object, the object slowed and appeared to hover over the jets as if teasing them, and then it made an incredible 90 degree turn with several jerking, zigzag movements and shot off at tremendous speed to the south directly over downtown Fresno.

The jets were left in its wake. We immediately jumped back into the car and decided to head home to tell our families what we had just witnessed.

It was about 10:45 p.m. when we reached the main intersection of town where we were stopped waiting the signal light to change. Suddenly all of the signal lights, and street lights started flashing on and off, including the caution lights at the train tracks which were directly in front of us beyond the intersection.

A large bolt of electricity shot down a power line near the road, arcing and snapping until it got to the end and dissipated. We sat there watching these lights flashing on and off around us for about 3 - 4 minutes and then they all stopped and the signal turned green.

We looked at each other and I floored it through the intersection and didn't let off the gas until we got to my friends home only a few blocks away.

When we pulled up to her house, some of the neighbors were all outside talking excitedly about what had just happened with the lights in the neighborhood. Of course they asked us if we saw it and we told them that we had witnessed that, and more.

Wanting to confirm what we had seen earlier, we ran inside the house to phone the airport. Incredibly, the call was answered by a man in the control tower.

I told him we had observed something in the sky close to the airport less than an hour ago and asked him if two National Guard jets had taken off to check it out.

I was told point-blank that no planes had taken off at all that night. I asked him again, if he was sure, and he told me once again that no planes had taken off.

We knew we weren't going to get any further with him and we also knew he had to be lying as we saw the jets with our own eyes and had close enough to read the numbers on the planes.

We told our families about what we had seen and received polite, yet insincere statements like, "wow that must have been something". But we knew they didn't believe us.

There was nothing in the local news the next day about a strange object in the sky or equally strange power surge and nothing was ever said about it again, except between my friend and me.

We've recounted that night many times over the years, even up to this day. We know what we saw; we know what happened.

I interviewed both ladies who witnessed the sighting and below are two links, one for Sylia's interview and the other for Connie. I can't thank the two ladies enough for taking the time with me on the telephone. Also, I must apologize to Sylvia for calling her Connie several times during the interview.

Disk Shaped UFO And House Shrouded By Fog New Plymouth Taranaki New Zealand (Audio Interview)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Brian Vike did a telephone interview with the witness and the audio interview link is below.

Disk Shaped UFO And House Shrouded By Fog New Plymouth Taranaki New Zealand telephone interview: https://jmp.sh/judwL78

Date: Year 1984 or 1985. Time: Evening.

Year 1984 or 1985. The sighting was a long time ago, but I know it was reported in the local New Plymouth newspaper.

Approach Direction: Came from many directions high in the sky. Departure Direction: Vanished at close range (approximately 100 meters). Witness Direction: Southwest.

Description: I and a friend (who I have lost contact with) were waiting at the side of the road, approximately 1 hour north of New Plymouth (we had a motor cycle puncture, other friends had gone to get help). As the light faded and the night grew dark, we notice an intense white spot moving across the sky. 

Over a period of about one hour, the spot move in a number of direction high in the sky. At times the light spot would move slowly and speed up into a blur and vanish.

At some point, I had this strange feeling, I looked up at a house behind me that was located on a hill abut 100 meters away. The house was shrouded by fog and above the house hovered a large disk of light. 

There was no sound, but a white cone type beam (wide at the top, narrow at the bottom)was scanning the roof of the house. I looked back at my friend and asked him if he saw the same thing and he seemed very scared. I looked back at the house and the object has disappeared. In the local newspaper (I can't remember which one) the next day, many people reported sighting the object. 

To this day, I can't rationalize what I experienced. At the time of the sighting I was living in New Zealand working on the Maui offshore gas rig. I now live in Long Beach/Los Angeles, California, and work for the California Environmental Protection Agency (Cal. EPA). 

I would like to hear from people and find out more information on what happened on that night. I have never forgotten the experience, and to this day I believe what I saw was real and not man made. Any further information would be greatly received.

Color/Shape: White, round, cone shaped beam of light coming out of center.

Height & Speed: very high to 50 meters off ground. Acceleration was very fast. Object became a blur on a number of occasions.

TV/Radio/Press: I did not report the incident, but I know it was reported in the local Taranaki newspapers. I can't remember exactly, but it was either 1984 or 85?

Thank you to UFOINFO for this report. http://www.ufoinfo.com/

Thank you to Mr. John Hayes for sending along the report for me to follow up.

Brian Vike did a follow up with the eyewitness, Tim by way of telephone interview.

Close Encounter With A Disc Shaped Craft/UFO Over Dayton Ohio (Telephone Interview/Graphic/Maps)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

You can listen to the interview I did with Jim over his sighting and some others he also related. Please click on the following link. https://jmp.sh/InUIj8e

Date: July 1982

Time: 6:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2

Number of objects: 1

Shape of objects: Disc.

Full Description of event/sighting: To whom it may concern, I have had three UFO sightings in my life, all of them being daylight sightings. One when I was around eight years old, another when I was around 35 years old, but the one that I will describe is by far the very best. At the age of 26, I am now 50 years old.

It's been a long time since I made this sighting, but have visited the site approximately every other year to keep it fresh in my memory. The sighting occurred in the summer (July?) of 1982, in Dayton, Ohio within an approximate radius of four miles from Wright Patterson AFB.

I had just pulled up to a local watering hole after work (Filthy McNasty's was the name of the establishment, believe it or not) with my best friend who I worked/carpooled with. I am a tool design engineer and he is a tool and die maker. From our work experience, we both are very well trained in regards to knowing the size of things big and small.

Filthy’s is located approximately 300 yards from the great Miami River and about 100 yards from Rip Rap Road which parallels the river and lies between itself and the river. It basically sits in the middle of an abandoned field, surrounded by flat farm fields and woods.

The time was approximately 6:00 p.m., the weather was good, with a clear blue sky, with little or no wind. A typical, hot, humid, stagnant, miserable summer day in Ohio. (Can you tell how much I like the weather in Ohio)?

As I was saying, we had just pulled up in the parking lot with the car facing west. We got out and started walking north for about 100 feet to the entrance, when something (a movement/reflection?) to our left (south) caught both of out eyes at the same time.

At a distance of 100 yards (I have measured this) and at approximate height of 200 feet (we had trees in the foreground very close to the road that I have measured the height of, by comparing the objects height to the height of the trees which I feel confident of the height estimate) was a dull gray metallic round object. It almost looked like something out of a 1950's bad Sci-Fi movie.

Two pie pans stacked facing each other with a streamlined "dome" on the top side only. The object was directly over the road and following it's course north at a speed of approximately 35 miles an hour. I have also measured this with myself standing in the exact spot and my friend driving the car on the road (and vice versa) at various speeds. We both picked the speed of 35 MPH.

The object was approximately 35 to 40 feet in diameter, I was a draftsman at the time, and had several size/angles of ellipse templates at work. So the following morning we stood at a distance of three feet from a wall which I had taped all of these templates to.

With the object of this being to pick out what we thought the object looked like. Not only the size, but the projected angle (share/profile). We both did this by ourselves, without knowing what size or shape the other had picked.

To my surprise we both picked the same shape, and more to my surprise, we were within approximately 10% of picking the same size. By using a little trigonometry and knowing a few measurements I calculated the size. So unless I am fundamentally wrong with how I did my calculations, I am very confident of the size that I estimate.

We also parked a Ford F-100 pickup out on the road and both of us stood in the "spot" and compared the size of the truck on the ground with the size of the object in the air. We both agreed that the object looked between two and three times the length of the truck, and so knowing the length of the truck, it fit really well with my calculations.

After we first spotted the object, it continued going north, at the same speed, following the path of the road. There were no erratic moments, no change in altitude, or any increase/decrease in speed. We both watched it for approximately 3 to 4 minutes until it was lost to sight in the haze a little above the horizon. After the object was lost to sight we went inside and discussed what we saw over a few cold beers.

What strikes me as odd, is that we didn't talk that much about it that night or after that. Maybe we were/are still dumbfounded by what we saw. This is not an exaggeration, if I saw a pickup truck at that height and distance, I wouldn't be able to tell you it's license plate number, but I damn sure could tell you what color, make and model it was.

There is one other thing that we both thought was very strange. There is a beach volleyball court in front of Filthy's and know more than 75 yards from the road. I would guess that there were between 15 and 20 people playing at the time. The net runs north and south, so half the people were facing east and the other half were facing west, and would have had an even closer view of the object than we did. I can see the half facing east missing it all together, but Ill be damned if I can figure out why no one player facing west spotted it.

We were both watching them for some reaction but there was not so much as a word said. We both were so dumbstruck that we just stood there with our jaws hanging on the ground and didn't raise the alarm to anyone. In fact we didn't say anything at all to each other the whole time except at the very beginning when I said, "What the hell is that !

To the best of my knowledge, all info contained in this statement is accurate and true. I know a fair amount about UFOs and the quality of the sighting/people.

So I have to tell you, this was a sweet one. No mysterious lights at night, and some moron wearing an Indian headdress claiming that he was whisked away to Venus (Maybe you've seen the film clips of this guy).

You have a multiple witness sighting, well trained, credible professionals.

You have a distance of no more than 125 yards away, with perfect viewing conditions.

I wouldn't have even reported this, except for the fact that it's been nagging at me for almost 25 years now. Maybe it will help me get rid of some of the nag. Plus, I like reading about sightings, so maybe someone will find this interesting and enjoyable. Thanks for listening.

In this interview Brian Vike talked with a fellow who gave a awesome description of the Black Triangle UFO he observed. The size of this clip is 67.9 mbs and it is 45 minutes in length.
