UFO Radio Interviews:
“Travis Taylor & Leslie Kean”


Streamed live: 31 March 2020
(Podcast UFO, Sebago, Maine)

Source: Martin Willis Live Shows (YouTube channel)

Quote from the video text:
“THE FIRST SEGMENT of the show is with Dr Travis Taylor who discusses the HISTORY Channel’s: The Secret of Skinwalker 
Ranch … FOLLOWING TWO SEGMENTS: Journalist Leslie Kean joins us for an interesting discussion of behind the scenes of co-authoring the article in the New York Times, December 16, 2017 that brought the world’s attention to UFOs, and what has changed since that time.”

My comment:
At 26:39, Martin Willis talks about a conversation he had during an American Airlines flight. Willis recounts that he talked to a relocating American Airlines pilot who sat next to him. He asked the pilot if he had seen the 16 December 2017 The New York Times article. No, he had not read the article, he said. And then the pilot said the following: “But you know what – they are real, I can tell you that.” He went on to tell Willis that when he was an F/A-18 Hornet fighter pilot – he was once followed by a green orb for a long time.

UFO News Article:
“Tokyo Air Leader Refuses to
Comment On ‘Disc’ Reports”


22 February 1952
(Nevada State Journal, Reno, Nevada)

Source: Newspapers.com

The whole article:
“Lt. Gen. O. P. Weyland, Far East Air Forces commander, said
today his headquarters could ‘add nothing’ to an Air Force
announcement that ‘flying discs’ had been seen over Korea by
B-29 bomber crews.

The crew members wish to remain ‘anonymous,’ Weyland said.”

My comment: Notice how the United Press journalist comments (‘add nothing’ and ‘anonymous’) on Lt. Gen. Weyland’s statement. This is good journalism. Where have the critical journalists (except Billy Cox (http://devoid.blogs.heraldtribune.com/), Leslie Kean and George Knapp) that cover the UFO issue gone?

UFO Newsletter Article:
“PERUVIAN UFO/MILITARY RUN-IN”


Crux No. 2 - Incorporating Stigmata No. 23, 1986
(Crux, Thomas R. Adams, Paris, Texas)

Source: Archives For the Unexplained (AFU), Norrköping, Sweden

The whole article:
“In response to his Freedom of Information Act request for information on UFOs, Ray W. Boeche of the Fortean Research Center in Lincoln, Nebraska, received a selection of documents from the Defense Intelligence Agency in late 1985. A number of foreign reports were included, as well as several references to Project Moon Dust, which other sources have described as the retrieval of fallen spacecraft or space debris of unknown origin (some suggest that UFOs easily fall within the purview of this project). One of the documents Boeche received is identified as from the Joint Chiefs of Staff Message Center and is concerned with events in Peru in May 1980. The summary of the event is as follows:

Source reported that a UFO was spotted on two different occasions near Peruvian Air Force (FAP) base in southern Peru. The FAP tried to intercept and destry [sic] the UFO, but without success.

The document then provides details:

Source told RD about the spotting of an unidentified flying object in the vicinity of Mariano Melgar Air Base, La Joya, Peru……Source stated that the vehicle was spotted on two different occasions. The first was during the morning hours of 9 May 80, and the second during the early evening hours of 10 May 80.

Source stated that on 9 May, while a group of FAP officers were in formation at Mariano Melgar, they spotted a UFO that was round in shape, hovering near the airfield. The air commander scrambled an SU-22 aircraft to make an intercept. The pilot, according to a third party, intercepted the vehicle and fired upon it at very close range without causing any apparent damage. The pilot tried to make a second pass on the vehicle, but the UFO out-ran the SU-22.

The second sighting was during hours of darkness. The vehicle was lighted. Again an SU-22 was scrambled, but the vehicle out-ran the aircraft.”


NOTE: The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) provides the wrong date for the La Joya UFO incident, according to Leslie Kean’s book, UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go On the Record (Google Books):


The correct date of the first UFO incident is 11 April 1980. It was Lieutenant (later Air Force Commander) Oscar Alfonso Santa Maria Huertas who was engaged in a dogfight with the UFO over 
the La Joya/Mariano Melgar Air Base, Arequipa, Peru. Huertas fired on – and hit the UFO – but the bullets had no effect on the unknown objectHuertas flew a Sukhoi Su-22 fighter-bomber airplane.
