5 July 1947
(The Evening Citizen, Ottawa, Canada)
Quote from the article:
“The pilot, co-pilot, and stewardess, who had scoffed consistently
at ‘flying saucer’ tales, said they saw such objects last night while flying a
passenger plane from Boise, Idaho, to Portland.
Their statements followed a day during which the ‘saucers’
were reported seen in many parts of the United States and also in Canada.
At Seattle, Frank Ryman, Coast Guard yeoman, said he
took a picture of what some residents north of Seattle thought was a flying
disc. The photograph showed a pinhead-size light spot against the dark evening
sky.”
