Quote from the UFO report:
“This is currently a 5-page chronology of UFO incidents and events for
1985. Our thanks for these chronologies must go to Richard Hall (the original
1985 chronology from UFOE II), Dan Wilson (archive researcher), and Jean
Waskiewicz (online NICAP DBase [NSID]. You will note the many foreign reports
that we are now being able to access. Our special thanks to Dan Wilson for
getting those to us. As more come in, this page will be updated. Previous
chronologies (1947 to 1969) involved the expertise of two other team members:
William Wise (Project Blue Book Archive) and Brad Sparks (Comprehensive Catalog
of Project Blue Book Unknowns). Bob Gribble's entries are those filed with the National UFO
Reporting Center
in Seattle , Washington , now operated by Peter Davenport.

June 11, 1985; Lanzhou , Gansu Province , China
10:40 PM. A Chinese Civil Aviation Administration Boeing 747 encountered
a UFO on the Peking to Paris
flight that almost forced the captain to make an emergency landing. Flight CA 933 was over Lanzhou , the capital of Gansu Province ,
at 2240 hours when Captain Wang Shuting and his crew first observed the object.
The UFO flew across the path of the airliner at its altitude of 33,000 feet at a very
high speed. The object illuminated an area of twenty-five to thirty square
miles and was huge, with an apparent diameter of six miles. It was elliptical
in shape and had an extremely bright spot in the center, with three horizontal
rows of bluish-white lights on the perimeter. The sighting lasted for two
minutes. (Source: Timothy Good, Above Top Secret, pg. 212).”
