Several technical experts observed a UFO over the Santa
Barbara Channel area (Los Angeles, California) during a Lockheed WV-2 flight
test on 16 December 1953:
Quote from the Wikipedia article, ‘List of reported
UFO sightings’ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_reported_UFO_sightings):
“Legendary Lockheed aircraft engineer Clarence ‘Kelly’ Johnson,
designer of the F-104, U-2, and SR-71, and his wife observed a
huge Flying Wing over the Pacific from the ground in Agoura.
Meanwhile, one of Johnson’s flight test crews aboard an WV-2
(see EC-121) spotted the craft from Long Beach, California.
USAF (Project Blue Book) concluded these trained observers had
seen a lenticular cloud, even though Johnson considered and
ruled out that explanation.”
