Quote from the document:

“SOURCE: Military

When observer first noticed objects, his first impression was that they were extra large pieces of cardboard or wrapping [paper] tumbling about in an oversize ‘dust devil’. Observer continued to watch them, however, seemed to indicate that the objects [were] held aloft by a force other than aircurrents. They reacted in a manner indicating motive power on their own. All three [objects] acted independently and highly erratically. For example, one object would move up while another would move down and the [third] sideways. Object was observed through monocular (6X23).”

Project Blue Book listed the case as “UNIDENTIFIED.”

The whole UFO case report:

“Fran Ridge:

Feb. 2, 1955; Miramar NAS, Calif. (BBU 3416)

11:50 a.m. USN Cdr. J. L. Ingersoll was driving his vehicle and was observing two Navy FJ3 aircraft in a landing pattern. The trailing FJ3 appeared to have only one rear wheel extended. Sensing an emergency he continued to watch and was able to see that all landing gear were actually down, but he also noticed an object somewhat below and aft that caught his attention. His first thought was that it was a canopy that had been ejected. The [object] was falling, and its motion seemed erratic, however it descended at a steady rate. He described it as an as off-white in color but with a highly polished surface that was definitely reflecting sunlight. His best guess was that this object was at 10-20,000 feet at first. The object came to a complete stop for about 5 to 10 seconds after dropping 3-5000 feet, then suddenly changed from white to a reddish brown and instantly accelerated at tremendous speed, estimated at 1,000-1,500  mph on a heading of 170 degrees. Object left a short brown vapor trail. The witness believes the object was not less than 25-35 feet in diameter and could have been as [large] as 100'. [Brad Sparks: The total duration is found from the estimated descent rate, thus a minimum of about 15 to 27 seconds including the 5-10 secs hovering]. (Berliner)”

Quote from the document:
“COURSE: ESE to WNW

Military pilot flying in B-25 a/c as instructor, turned to student & first saw object which he described as large (120-130feet across) metallic, disc shape, looked like two pie tins placed together at their rims. During time of sighting, object changed its position to both face and observer’s a/c with both its edge forward, and w/its [circular] surface exposed to view. Object paralleled aircraft and disappeared after approximately 7 minutes.”

Project Blue Book listed the case as “Unknown.”

NOTE: The UFO incident occurred 30 miles east of Cochise, Arizona (not New Mexico), on 1 February (not January) 1955, according to NICAP.org (see below link).

UFO Case Directory (RADCAT): “RAF Mosquito Pursues Radar Target (BBU) January 16, 1947 North Sea, 50 miles from Holland”

30 June 2009

(NICAP.org)

The whole UFO case report:

“Fran Ridge:

10:30 p.m. (GMT). RAF pilot of Mosquito pursued unidentified radar target showing efficient controlled evasive action at 22,000 ft speed equal or greater than Mosquito, headed W? towards Norfolk, Eng. (FOIA) This was five months before the Kenneth Arnold sighting and the beginning of the Wave of 1947, followed by the crash at Roswell in early July. The incident was also linked to another ‘X raid’ tracked by radar earlier that same day. An FBI document from July of 1947 quoted the Air Ministry case summary stating that: ‘no explanation has been forthcoming, nor has it been repeated.’ This information was not entirely accurate, because a very similar incident had occurred just 24 hours after the North Sea incident. As a direct result, Fighter Command immediately extended its night radar watch.

Dan Wilson:

At 11:30 at night in the North Sea an RAF Mosquito pilot picked up a strange object on radar 50 miles north of the coast of Holland. The UFO seemed to be taking evasive maneuvers when approached by the fighter aircraft. The UFO was pursued for 30 minutes until over the Norfolk, England coast, at which point the object darted away. (Source: APRO Bulletin, December 1977, p. 7). See report from Project Blue Book files below.

Jan Aldrich:

The U.S. got a full report on this which (Captain Edward) Ruppelt saw and summarized. The summary was in Hynek’s files now at CUFOS, Operation Charlie, which Martin Shough and Dave Clarke dug out of the UK archives. This impressive case involves more than one incident, and the British archives is missing some information. Apparently the Americans got a report on the incident including information that is now missing from the UK archives.”

“SOURCE: Civilian

LENGTH OF OBSERVATION: [One] hour

No description, except that a ‘saucer’ was to the NW, moving slowly to the south. All at once in a sudden burst of speed it circled from right to left in a huge circle and moved toward the south at the same time. No soud, smell, or trail. Very high rate of speed in making the circles.”

Quote from the UFO report:

“This 26 page chrono involves a number of people. First of all, I want to thank Ted Bloecher. His 1967 work, the entire updated version, is available on the NICAP site (See below). Over a thousand incidents, many of which are included in the chronology below, are listed in the charts from ‘The Report on the UFO Wave of 1947’ (Reference 1).  We also wish to thank Wendy Connors and Mike Hall for allowing us to post their great book, ‘Alfred Loedding and the Great Flying Saucer Wave of 1947’. No 1947 work would be complete without the aid of Jan Aldrich of Project 1947. I want to thank all the members of the A-Team who made this possible. To view the 1947 sightings listed by Blue Book click here. Be sure to click on and read the two great books below. Finally, I want thank Loren Gross for thoughtfully and diligently collecting data many years ago for his UFO Histories and supplemental notes, in particular here the year 1947. And a big thanks to CUFOS and Mary Castnor for housing them on the CUFOS site.
