http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=Stg0AAAAIBAJ&sjid=4QUEAAAAIBAJ&pg=6071,4125773


Quote from the article:

“The lights, described as red, white and green and about the size of a star, were sighted about 10 p.m. and tracked for several minutes by radar.

‘All I can tell you from here is what’s in the log,’ said Pinecastle’s Lt. Commander John L. Sullivan.


‘From what I can gather, the radar picked something up and it departed the area very quickly.’ ”


And Master Chief Thomas O’Neal says in the article that the Warfare Range also had a rash of UFO sightings one or two years before the 14 May 1978 UFO incident.


The Pinecastle Electronic Warfare Range can be found at these coordinates (Google Earth):


29°06'57.00" N 81°44'10.00" W

UFO News Article:
“Britain's UFO secrets revealed”,
4 June 2000 (The Guardian, London, UK)

The UK Government has hidden UFO files, according to this article.

The article reports on the UFO investigation of Welsh research chemist Dr. Colin Ridyard:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2000/jun/04/freedomofinformation.politics

For a long time Dr. Ridyard had tried unsuccessfully to get hold of UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) documents relating to UFO sightings by UK pilots or radar operators between July 1998 and July 1999.

After having been helped by parliamentary Ombudsman Michael Buckley, Dr. Ridyard was successful in obtaining two MoD UFO reports.

And other UFO reports released by the Civil Aviation Authority revealed that there had been additional UFO sightings over the UK during that time period. The CAA said it reported two more UFO sightings to the MoD, neither of which the MoD disclosed.

“Radar spotted UFOs near
Crawford in January, group says”,
11 July 2008 (Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Texas)

This Fort Worth Star-Telegram news article reports on the MUFON Stephenville UFO radar report:

http://www.star-telegram.com/2008/07/11/755833/radar-spotted-ufos-near-crawford.html

The Stephenville, Texas mass UFO sighting incident occurred on
8 January 2008.

At one point, the large UFO headed straight towards then U.S. President George W. Bush’s Crawford ranch.

After months of research, the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) issued a report based on Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) radar records.

Quote from the article:
“The authors of the report said they reached conclusions:

* There was definitely a real and physical object that appeared and was witnessed.

* The military did not act overtly to the presence of these objects.

* Military air traffic was unusually heavy and twice veered into civilian airspace.”

I also reported on the Stephenville UFO case on 3 January 2009.

“Flying Object Reports Pour In From US”,
6 November 1957 (Lodi News-Sentinel, California)

The U.S. Air Force radar network was watching for strange flying objects reported in various sections of the country in early November 1957, according to this news article:

http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=NCIzAAAAIBAJ&sjid=0u4HAAAAIBAJ&pg=4473,583437

But the U.S. Air Force said that a 10-year search produced no evidence that “flying saucers” exist.

This news article was published five years after U.S. Air Force radar stations registered unknown objects over Washington, D.C. on two consecutive weekends in July 1952! And U.S. Air Force jet fighter pilots chased the same objects.

Quote from the article:
“Reports of ‘sighting’ during the past 24 hours continued to pour in from the Gulf of Mexico, Texas, the U.S. Missile Test Center in New Mexico and other areas. The reports told of auto motors stalled and headlights dimmed as objects passed.

The U.S. Coast Guard cutter Sebago reported it kept one unidentified flying object (UFO) on its radar screen while the ‘brilliant planet’ circled the vessel about 200 miles south of the mouth of the Mississippi river.
