Billy Cox reports on retired Silicon
Valley design engineer Peter Reali’s research into the November
2004 USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group 11 UFO incidents and gives an overview of the
Scientific Coalition for Ufology’s paper on this case.
Reali lectured at the Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Conference (AAPC) (organised by
the Scientific Coalition for Ufology (SCU)) (held in Huntsville , Alabama , on 15-17 March 2019).
The November 2004 USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group 11
UFO incidents occurred about a hundred miles south west of San Diego , California .
The main UFO incident occurred on 14 November 2004 (Fravor and Slaight).
To my knowledge, seven U.S. Navy personnel, Kevin M.
Day, David Fravor, P. J. Hughes, Omar Lara, Jim Slaight, Jason Turner and Gary
Voorhis, have talked about the UFO incidents on the Internet.
Kevin M. Day was a radar operator aboard the USS
Princeton.
David Fravor, who chased the UFO (resembled a white
Tic Tac), was flying his F/A-18F
Super Hornet jet fighter.
At the time of the UFO incident, Fravor was the
commanding officer of the VFA-41 Black Aces, a U.S. Navy strike fighter
squadron.
P. J. Hughes was an aviation technician aboard the USS
Nimitz.
Omar Lara was a Flight Decker in Air Ops aboard the
USS Nimitz.
Lieutenant Commander (later Commander) Jim Slaight was
the pilot of the second F/A-18F
Super Hornet jet fighter.
Jason Turner was a Petty Officer Third Class (in
Supply) aboard the USS Princeton.
Gary Voorhis was a Fire Controlman Petty Officer Third
Class aboard the USS Princeton.
A large number of UFOs were recorded on radar on and off for several days during the November 2004 U.S. Navy exercise, according to USS Princeton radar operator Kevin M. Day.
Gary Voorhis experienced that the unknown objects
“zoomed around at ridiculous speeds and angles and trajectories,” and that “it
(the UFOs) was moving faster than our radar could register.”
