Fighters Scrambled From Comox To Vancouver British Columbia To Intercept UFOs

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Late 1950s and early 1960s.
Toll Free Hotline:

I had call phone call from a retired pilot this afternoon. He had worked with NORAD at one time and told me he knew all about "Flying Saucers". This pilot also went on to say he remembers clearly that he scrambled fighters out of Comox in the late 50's, early 60s to intercept a Unidentified Flying Object. Comox by the way  is located on Vancouver Island here in British Columbia, Canada.

Brian Vike’s Note: I have left out some details due to not having any kind of trail leading back to the fellow who gave me the information.

He was the (deleted by Brian Vike) and they scrambled fighter interceptors because they were watching on radar strange objects making all kinds of radical maneuvers close to the Vancouver, B.C. area.

He went on to say that the media had been receiving telephone calls over all the strange objects being seen at this time and they were making calls into the airports wanting to know what it was many folks were seeing in the skies over the Vancouver area.

The media had no luck with the airports in getting any information on what was taking place, they decided to call the Comox base. 

Brian Vike’s Note: This is where I am leaving out a couple of things about this case.

After the calls started coming in, the Commander of the base at that time called the man(who I talked with today)at his home, and said, " Nothing really happened and went on to say to this gentleman that the media from Vancouver had been making a good number of calls to the base, and again the Commander said, "Nothing unusual really happened last night"! "So there was nothing to talk about" !

As the fellow I chatted with today said, "I got the message loud and clear" ! "Three bags full, Yes Sir"! (His words). He also said he just kept his mouth closed and went about his business, but later on he talked with other people who took photos of the "flying saucers" as the fighters were flying beside the objects.

After the aircraft landed back at the Comox base they were ordered by the base Commander to hand over the camera and film which were taken of the objects, orders came down the Canadian DND.

He also said this went on for years and one didn't talk about it or your career was finished.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

UFO Splits Into Two And Shoots Straight Up And Disappears Houston British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February 27, 2003
Time:  Approximately 4:05 a.m.

I was over at Country Wide Stationary today (March 4, 2003) and a fellow had read the logo on my winter coat.(UFO Research Logo). He asked what it was all about, in which I explained what it was I was up to.

This man, a logging truck operator left the town of Houston driving up the Morice River Road heading approximately 100 kilometers out across the Reach to pick up a load of logs.

He went on to say when he reached the 30 kilometers mark on the Morice River Road, he witnessed "one" bright white light high in the sky heading in his direction. As the light got closer to him, he watched the light split up into two parts, with both pieces flying in different directions. He said one part went west and the other east.

What was so amazing was that the two lights shot back up into the sky and disappeared. The sighting lasted approximately 6 to 7 seconds at the most. 

He was so surprised and excited at what he just saw, he got on the trucks radio and asked other drivers on the road if anyone had witnessed what he just did. Two other drivers who were in the same area reported back to him that they also witnessed the same thing.

Brian Vike’s Note: I have the name of one of the other drivers and will be speaking to him tomorrow to take his report. I was told that a number of logging truck drivers on their early morning hauls have seen a number of strange things in the sky, so I am also looking into these as well. Also I had a telephone call from a fellow from Prince Rupert today.

He asked if I would be around today as he wanted to drop in on his way to Alberta. I met with him at my home and we had a really nice visit.  He also told me about an amazing sight he witnessed in the Prince Rupert area. I am certainly going to be taking the trip up to visit with him later on when he comes home from Alberta.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Mill Employee Observes Large UFO Land Or Hover On Mountain Side Houston British Columbia

 Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date: February 3, 2003
Time: Approximately 8:10 a.m.

"Possible Landing of an object" !!

Brian Vike’s Note: The couple of days ago I reported that three blue/white lights in a triangular shape were witnessed by a Canfor sawmill employee flying very low over top of him. The object moved very quickly and disappeared over one of Houston, B.C. local mountains. This sighting took place on February 3, 2003 at approximately 8:10.p.m.

Today, February 9, 2003 I went to visit a close friend. While sitting around talking he told me that his brother has witnessed something very strange on February 3, 2003, in the morning between 8:00 a.m. and 8:10 a.m. Of course my ears perked up when I heard the date of the sighting, and I asked my friend if he would call his brother and ask if it would be ok to come over to take his report on what he saw. He agreed and I soon left my buddies home and headed over to look into this new report.

First of all, I would like to point out that the fellow who gave me his account of events, does not really believe in UFOs, or visitors from else where. I also know this fellow very well, and both himself and his wife are well respected in the community of Houston.

The witness to the early morning sighting works for Houston Forest Products which is one of two large and very modern sawmills. At the time of his sighting he was operating a heavy machine in the log yard when a "extremely" bright yellow/orange light caught his attention. The source of the light was coming from the northern side of Pea Cock Mountain, which is at the south end of the forest companies property.

There was a low lying fog in the valley that morning but from his position he could see the fog had only gone part ways of the mountains, so it was laying very low. After he saw the intense light, he saw what he first thought was a helicopter, but wondered why it had such a bright light on it, then after a couple of seconds went by he thought it couldn't be a helicopter due to the size of it. 

The description he gave me of this object was as follows, the object at a distance of approximately 2 kilometers ( or less) away up on the side of Pea Cock Mountain on a logged off area, sat either hovering, or "sat on the ground" for approximately 40 seconds. The witness said the color of the object was a light gray/white. And the color was changing, as if it was translucent (almost as if it was flickering in and out).

The craft was oval is shape with this bright yellow/orange light dead center at the bottom of the object. As the witness sat watching it, it rose up only a little, and flew to the south heading to the top of Pea Cock Mountain. But before it even came close to the top of the mountain, and with no obstructions in between the witness and the craft it completely disappeared. Or as they say, blinked out. 

Now I find this interesting because of two reports on the very same day, one in the morning and evening in pretty much the same area.

Brian Vike’s Note: Monday morning I will be stopping into the local helicopter business, in which there is two of. I want to see if they were flying that morning, or around the time of the sighting. I also will stop in and see if the forestry knows of any logging operations going on at the sighting location. Plus I may have to dig out the snowshoes and take a short hike to look around the area for any possible signs that something may have been there.

It has not snowed in a while here, so if anything had got close to the ground, or even landed, there should be signs of this taking place.  I will keep everyone posted on this case. Also I am just going to post a computer graphic on my site to give you an example of what this thing looked like. My wife recreated it from the drawing the witnesses supplied. (Keep in mind, the computer image is close, but not exact in color.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Forestry Workers Watch Large Glowing Golden/Orangish Disk Shaped UFO Granisle British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  December 27, 2002
Time: Approximately 2:10 a.m.

Brian Vike’s Note: It has been an exciting year for me here in northern British Columbia. After a slow start in for the year 2001 (6 reported UFO sightings, my investigation into the Vanderhoof crop circles and a cattle mute), 2002 has been an unbelievable time for a UFO investigator, plus I am brand new at this stuff.

With this sighting report, this will bring the total cases I have worked on to 120 cases. Most of the cases are for the pacific northwest here in B.C. I have talked to over 200 witnesses for these 120 reported sightings. I still am working on two more still yet to come for the end of this year.

Did the same Golden UFO return to Granisle in which RCMP officers watched a golden saucer hovering over the lake?

I had a telephone call from a nice fellow who reported that he, and three other co-workers were doing some last minute work around the logging camp which is located across Babine Lake, just across the lake from Granisle, British Columbia.

One of the workers gave out a loud cry telling the other workers to look into the direction he was pointing to.

Approximately a half kilometer away from their location, which would have been to the north. The men all witnessed a bright, white/yellowish light coming from behind the trees in the distance. At this point all that was visible was a brightness shinning above/through the trees.

Brian Vike’s Note: I know the area well as I have spent a lot of time fishing the lakes in the area, and there is nothing out there other than forest, lakes and streams. Of course cut blocks in which are being logged.

I asked the fellow if there may have been logging equipment working in the area where the light was seen coming from, using their bight lights to log and harvest the timber. He said NO ! The loggers were making ready the area/camp for logging to start up again after the holiday season was over and done with.

After dropping everything the men were doing, watching and wondering what this glowing light was, to their shock a large glowing golden/orangish disk shaped object with a large halo of white around the craft rose up in the distance and stopped and hovered.

I was told they observed the object for approximately 10 seconds at the most, which the fellow said seemed like a life time.

As the object moved away from their location, heading roughly to the north they did lose sight of the craft quickly, but after losing sight of the object they still could see the bright light, which they figured was the light which was given off from the object for sometime.(approximately 5 minutes after seeing the object). The light grew faint and disappeared.

Brian Vike’s Note: I am still gathering information on this case, and the other case at Granisle, British Columbia in which two authorities witnessed a large glowing orange/gold almost saucer shaped (oval?) object hovering right over top the old Bell Copper mine. This took place on October 22, 2002 at 10:25 p.m. This full report is at my website.

I should have a report from Terrace B.C. as well coming quickly, witnessed watched an object on December 27, 2002, 8:35 p.m. around the hot springs which is a short distance from the main junction heading west towards Kitimat.

 The witness watched a saucer shaped object with one row of lights with two very bright lights close together.

And another I am working on, and am speaking with the witness, this report came to me from my friends from UFO*BC and is a joint investigation. This sighting takes place in between Kitimat and Terrace, B.C. at Onion Lake.

 Full reports on these new sightings will be posted soon.

 Thank you to the witness for the report.

UFO The Size Of A Greyhound Bus Paced Our Truck Houston British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  March 3, 2003
Time:  7:55 a.m.

Local call to report.

Daylight sighting.

Tonight on Friday, March 7, 2003 at approximately 8:30 p.m. I received a telephone call from two local Houston, B.C. residents who wanted to report something very strange they had saw on March 3, 2003 at approximately 7:55 a.m. The two witnesses were at the same location here in town when they made the call to me here at home.

The reason why the witnesses decided to tell their story was due to the newspaper articles which ran on the UFO Survey, and myself in out local newspaper this past Wednesday. They also told me they both spent sometime trying to make up their minds if they should actually call me over what they saw.

The first thing one of the fellows said to me was, "my buddy and I saw something very weird the other day, and are still questioning ourselves over what we saw". He went on to say there was himself and his friend in his truck travelling along highway #16 just east from Houston, B.C. Since it is getting lighter earlier these days, the fellows witnesses this object in the daylight.

Just before they got to Perow, there is a large farmers field which runs for a long way, and also runs along side the highway with a buffer of trees between the field and the highway. His friend was the passenger in the truck and first noticed a large object paralleling them along the highway.

The driver looked at the speed they were travelling and said he was doing approximately 50 kilometers an hour. The distance between the witnesses and the object would have been approximately 300 to 400 feet. So they both had a very close up look at it. (keep in mind there were the trees in between the truck and object which did hinder the view at times).

Also the field drops down somewhat below the highway, so the forestry workers did not get a good look at the bottom of this craft. 

They both described the object as looking like an "Air Stream Trailer", and the size was close to the a Greyhound Bus. It was metallic in color, and no other features could be seen on it. No lights, windows, nothing !! The object stayed straight across from their truck as they drove along, as I mentioned above.

It paced their vehicle. The passenger had rolled down the window to see if he was able to hear any sound coming from this object, but none was heard, it was silent. After approximately 3/4 quarters of a kilometer the craft turned slowly away from the highway, wobbled slightly, sped up, wobbled once again and then shot off out of sight very quickly. 

Brian Vike’s Note: Since the object was so low, and on the other side of the standing trees, I asked if they had observed any moment in the trees. Such as any disturbance which would have moved the trees in anyway. None was noticed.

Something else I should add. When the witnesses mentioned that is wobbled, one of the fellows said it was like looking through a heat wave, which gave it a look as if it was slightly wobbling. Also both of the man made comments to one another, saying it was so strange and not a normal aircraft as it had no wings on it's body.

He also mentioned due to the type of work he is involved with he had made many trips on different aircraft, and what he and his friend saw was "no" aircraft they know of. 

I am also going out tomorrow to grab some pictures of the area where the sighting took place. I hope to have some drawings and more information after I sit down and chat with the two witnesses over the weekend. There is more to this story to come.

Thank you to the witnesses for the report.

Large Craft/UFO Spotted While Traveling Up Hungry Hill Between Smithers to Houston British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Late 2001 or 2002 ? The wife says this year.
Hungry Hill - 10:00 minutes from Houston heading west.

My wife and I were traveling from Smithers, British Columbia to Houston, British Columbia, I think around 2001 or 2002 (she will remember).

Anyways on the way up Hungry Hill we saw a what appeared to be a very large craft, but with very, very dim lights glowing from underneath.

We watched it for a long time as we climbed Hungry Hill, we both agreed it could not be a plane, I remarked to my wife jokingly that the lights on the craft were so dim and he should hit his high beams.

Well just then the lights (can't remember how many) got super super bright and the craft sped off. There were a lot of cars of the highway that night.

The witnesses said they seen me in the post office and noticed my jacket. (UFO logo on it) and they did a search on Google with UFO Houston and came up with your website. Wife says it was this year that we saw the craft.

She said it had a flashing light as well as the bright white lights. She thinks red. I say it was last year we saw it, not sure though.

I would like to thank these witness for sending me their sighting report.
