The whole UFO case report:
“Fran Ridge:
In May of 2005 we found MAXW-PBB9-1289 (an AIIR, Air
Intelligence Information Report) while looking for something else. Since I was
working on White Sands cases I set it aside. Then, a week later, I stumbled
across another reference. NARA-PBB85-654 mentioned an unidentified radar
return. It was marked with brackets as secret. However, it was listed as having
occurred on April 8th at 2000 hours (8:00 PM). I checked the NICAP Db and it
wasn’t there, so I then went to the ‘Bluelist,’ the outdated PBB Unknowns. Duncanville
was listed, as Item 1095, and as April 5th. But Dan Wilson & Brad Sparks
had noted the correct date as April 4th.
Brad Sparks:
April 4, 1952.
Duncanville, Texas (BBU 1095)
8:30 p.m. (CST)
USAF Cpl. Billy D. Greer and PFC John W. Harrington of the Radar
Maintenance Section, 147th AC&W Squadron, tracked unidentified target by
FPS-10 radar first to the NW at 310°-315° azimuth at about 70 nautical miles (80 miles) moving at high
speed of about 2,160 knots (2,500
mph) until it disappeared off the scope at maximum range
of 260 n.mi. (300 miles).
Height-finder reading not taken, estimated at 42,000+ ft due to radar beam
coverage at max range. (Jan Aldrich;
FUFOR Index)”
