1
00:00:05,030 --> 00:00:01,969
it was a Japan Airlines cargo flight

2
00:00:07,309 --> 00:00:05,040
piloted by Captain kenju tarouuchi this

3
00:00:09,350 --> 00:00:07,319
is the sketch terrauchi Drew of what he

4
00:00:10,970 --> 00:00:09,360
says he saw at his window that night and

5
00:00:13,310 --> 00:00:10,980
this Japanese television graphic is

6
00:00:17,410 --> 00:00:13,320
based on his description this is just a

7
00:00:22,550 --> 00:00:17,420
small species sick we can see uh

8
00:00:24,830 --> 00:00:22,560
this one is uh size is uh Kelly so

9
00:00:26,870 --> 00:00:24,840
motherships bigger than an aircraft

10
00:00:28,609 --> 00:00:26,880
carrier tarouuchi claimed when he drew

11
00:00:31,130 --> 00:00:28,619
this sketch showing the relative size of

12
00:00:33,530 --> 00:00:31,140
his jumbo jet taruchi's route was over

13
00:00:35,270 --> 00:00:33,540
Alaska to Anchorage he says the UFOs

14
00:00:38,030 --> 00:00:35,280
stayed with him 40 minutes and then

15
00:00:39,410 --> 00:00:38,040
disappeared today the FAA released tapes

16
00:00:42,470 --> 00:00:39,420
of the cruise conversation with

17
00:00:45,170 --> 00:00:42,480
controllers spinner 16 28th sir if

18
00:00:57,910 --> 00:00:45,180
you're able to identify the type

19
00:01:02,630 --> 00:01:00,110
uhuchi's crewmates were not sure they'd

20
00:01:05,990 --> 00:01:02,640
seen a UFO and other planes sent to look

21
00:01:07,910 --> 00:01:06,000
saw nothing unusual the FAA agrees today

22
00:01:10,010 --> 00:01:07,920
the agency concluded a three-month

23
00:01:12,170 --> 00:01:10,020
investigation saying there's nothing to

24
00:01:14,750 --> 00:01:12,180
substantiate the Pilot's story nothing

25
00:01:17,210 --> 00:01:14,760
to indicate a UFO or any other aircraft

26
00:01:19,250 --> 00:01:17,220
near the flight computer memory has

27
00:01:21,289 --> 00:01:19,260
recreated what radar picked up as the

28
00:01:23,749 --> 00:01:21,299
flight progressed sometimes the Jal

29
00:01:25,070 --> 00:01:23,759
plane is seen as a normal blip but

30
00:01:27,350 --> 00:01:25,080
occasionally it appears as what some

31
00:01:29,450 --> 00:01:27,360
called a double blip sometimes even two

32
00:01:31,609 --> 00:01:29,460
distinct blips it caught controller's

33
00:01:35,330 --> 00:01:31,619
attention that night

34
00:01:37,490 --> 00:01:35,340
they do have a primary target in Trail

35
00:01:39,410 --> 00:01:37,500
View this time but the FAA says

36
00:01:41,210 --> 00:01:39,420
exhaustive analysis indicates the

37
00:01:43,670 --> 00:01:41,220
occasional second blip was a common

38
00:01:45,950 --> 00:01:43,680
radar Echo and noting that this is only

39
00:01:48,770 --> 00:01:45,960
one of four times Captain terucy has

40
00:01:51,050 --> 00:01:48,780
said he's seen UFOs the FAA today closed

41
00:01:53,450 --> 00:01:51,060
the case but a tape recording reveals

42
00:01:56,149 --> 00:01:53,460
one investigator telling Taraji if he's

43
00:02:00,289 --> 00:01:56,159
right or the agency's wrong all I can

44
00:02:06,109 --> 00:02:02,870
one impressive well-documented case is

45
00:02:09,290 --> 00:02:06,119
reconstructed here by nip on TV when a

46
00:02:14,990 --> 00:02:09,300
707 was flying over Alaska on the 17th

47
00:02:21,229 --> 00:02:18,350
at 5 PM during the flight Commander

48
00:02:27,190 --> 00:02:21,239
tarashi observed two red lights getting

49
00:02:34,150 --> 00:02:29,990
the control tower Anchorage didn't

50
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:42,729
the lights got nearer and narrower

51
00:02:49,130 --> 00:02:45,410
the three Pilots fold a wave of heat

52
00:03:12,309 --> 00:02:49,140
then the lights disappeared

53
00:03:18,170 --> 00:03:15,530
the radar screen indicated the proximity

54
00:03:19,670 --> 00:03:18,180
of the object and the object began to

55
00:03:31,250 --> 00:03:19,680
Shadow the airplane

56
00:03:36,949 --> 00:03:33,649
contrast to the city lights the crew

57
00:03:39,350 --> 00:03:36,959
could see the outline of the object

58
00:03:44,530 --> 00:03:39,360
we couldn't believe our eyes it was 30

59
00:03:50,589 --> 00:03:47,750
we tried to shake off this object and I

60
00:03:53,869 --> 00:03:50,599
veered the 707 away

61
00:03:57,309 --> 00:03:53,879
the control tar asked if we required the

62
00:03:59,750 --> 00:03:57,319
intervention of a military fighter

63
00:04:00,710 --> 00:03:59,760
we replied that it would be too

64
00:04:03,649 --> 00:04:00,720
dangerous

65
00:04:05,509 --> 00:04:03,659
as an LL airplane needed to cross our

66
00:04:10,149 --> 00:04:05,519
flight path

67
00:04:14,030 --> 00:04:10,159
towards 6 PM the object disappeared

68
00:04:15,949 --> 00:04:14,040
the sighting lasted for an hour

69
00:04:18,349 --> 00:04:15,959
these are the sketches by captain

70
00:04:21,710 --> 00:04:18,359
tarashi

71
00:04:23,990 --> 00:04:21,720
both he and his crew saw enormous UFO

72
00:04:25,850 --> 00:04:24,000
it was under control and he felt there

73
00:04:28,129 --> 00:04:25,860
was every possibility that it hadn't

74
00:04:31,070 --> 00:04:28,139
been constructed on Earth

75
00:04:33,890 --> 00:04:31,080
my name is John Callahan I'm a retired

76
00:04:35,450 --> 00:04:33,900
FAA employee I was a division manager

77
00:04:38,450 --> 00:04:35,460
for the accidents evaluation and

78
00:04:40,430 --> 00:04:38,460
investigation division in D.C about two

79
00:04:43,629 --> 00:04:40,440
years before I retired I received a call

80
00:04:45,950 --> 00:04:43,639
from my Alaska region with the

81
00:04:48,290 --> 00:04:45,960
region wanted to know what to tell the

82
00:04:51,469 --> 00:04:48,300
media when I questioned tell the media

83
00:04:54,170 --> 00:04:51,479
what he says about the UFO and he went

84
00:04:56,030 --> 00:04:54,180
downhill from there what UFO

85
00:04:57,830 --> 00:04:56,040
it turned out I told him about the any

86
00:04:59,570 --> 00:04:57,840
government employee would do at that

87
00:05:00,950 --> 00:04:59,580
time was to tell them it's under

88
00:05:03,050 --> 00:05:00,960
investigation

89
00:05:06,050 --> 00:05:03,060
and then I had him send all that data to

90
00:05:09,469 --> 00:05:06,060
the faa's tech center in Atlantic City

91
00:05:11,990 --> 00:05:09,479
the next day my uh immediate boss

92
00:05:14,749 --> 00:05:12,000
service director Javi Sofia and I went

93
00:05:16,370 --> 00:05:14,759
to Atlantic City I just purchased a a

94
00:05:20,210 --> 00:05:16,380
new video camera

95
00:05:22,370 --> 00:05:20,220
and I videoed the uh the event

96
00:05:24,710 --> 00:05:22,380
and Atlantic City we had him play back

97
00:05:27,770 --> 00:05:24,720
on a uh on the scope you would call a

98
00:05:30,350 --> 00:05:27,780
scope a plan view display PVD exactly

99
00:05:32,990 --> 00:05:30,360
what the pilot uh seen or what the

100
00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:33,000
control was seen and we tied it in with

101
00:05:36,710 --> 00:05:35,280
the voice tape so we could hear exactly

102
00:05:38,990 --> 00:05:36,720
what the control was said and what he

103
00:05:40,210 --> 00:05:39,000
heard and we taped it we came back the

104
00:05:43,550 --> 00:05:40,220
next day

105
00:05:45,050 --> 00:05:43,560
uh brief the administrator admiralingen

106
00:05:47,029 --> 00:05:45,060
on what happened he won the five-minute

107
00:05:48,050 --> 00:05:47,039
briefing after we started the brief and

108
00:05:50,090 --> 00:05:48,060
he wanted to know if he could see the

109
00:05:51,770 --> 00:05:50,100
video we put the video on he watched the

110
00:05:55,310 --> 00:05:51,780
video the whole video

111
00:05:58,490 --> 00:05:55,320
the next day he set up a a meeting for

112
00:06:00,469 --> 00:05:58,500
me to give a dog and pony show to

113
00:06:02,450 --> 00:06:00,479
President Reagan's scientific staff and

114
00:06:04,610 --> 00:06:02,460
whoever they brought over and to hand

115
00:06:07,730 --> 00:06:04,620
off all that data to them

116
00:06:10,150 --> 00:06:07,740
that morning in the FAA round room

117
00:06:13,430 --> 00:06:10,160
it was either 9 or 10 o'clock

118
00:06:14,450 --> 00:06:13,440
three men from a Reagan's scientific

119
00:06:17,570 --> 00:06:14,460
staff

120
00:06:19,010 --> 00:06:17,580
three CIA people three FBI people and I

121
00:06:21,890 --> 00:06:19,020
don't remember who the other guys were

122
00:06:23,629 --> 00:06:21,900
along with all the FAA experts that I

123
00:06:25,969 --> 00:06:23,639
brought with me that could decide or

124
00:06:28,610 --> 00:06:25,979
talk about the hardware and software how

125
00:06:31,309 --> 00:06:28,620
it worked we put on a dog and pony show

126
00:06:33,110 --> 00:06:31,319
we let them watch the video we had all

127
00:06:35,510 --> 00:06:33,120
the data there we had all the printouts

128
00:06:37,730 --> 00:06:35,520
that the computer put out

129
00:06:38,809 --> 00:06:37,740
they got all excited over it when it was

130
00:06:41,990 --> 00:06:38,819
all done

131
00:06:43,610 --> 00:06:42,000
the CIA one of the CIA men told the

132
00:06:45,890 --> 00:06:43,620
people they would also wanted secrecy

133
00:06:48,529 --> 00:06:45,900
that this meeting never happened and

134
00:06:51,710 --> 00:06:48,539
this event never happened when I asked

135
00:06:53,270 --> 00:06:51,720
them why you know I thought it was

136
00:06:56,270 --> 00:06:53,280
probably just a stealth bomb at the time

137
00:06:59,930 --> 00:06:56,280
he says well this is the first time that

138
00:07:01,909 --> 00:06:59,940
we have recorded radar data on a UFO and

139
00:07:04,309 --> 00:07:01,919
these guys are going to get all excited

140
00:07:05,330 --> 00:07:04,319
they're drooling over all this data I

141
00:07:07,430 --> 00:07:05,340
said well you're going to tell the

142
00:07:09,230 --> 00:07:07,440
public about it and he says no we don't

143
00:07:11,930 --> 00:07:09,240
tell the public about this it would

144
00:07:14,510 --> 00:07:11,940
Panic the public he says we're going to

145
00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:14,520
go back and study this

146
00:07:19,730 --> 00:07:17,039
I said Okay that was what he was going

147
00:07:22,249 --> 00:07:19,740
to do now I've told this story many

148
00:07:24,830 --> 00:07:22,259
times and I've get sometimes funny looks

149
00:07:26,270 --> 00:07:24,840
from people I have with me

150
00:07:37,189 --> 00:07:26,280
the

151
00:07:39,710 --> 00:07:37,199
what to do with it we don't separate

152
00:07:42,710 --> 00:07:39,720
UFOs from real traffic so it's not our

153
00:07:47,809 --> 00:07:45,770
I have a copy of the original of the uh

154
00:07:49,070 --> 00:07:47,819
video that we took which is rather

155
00:07:50,469 --> 00:07:49,080
interesting

156
00:07:53,450 --> 00:07:50,479
and

157
00:07:55,490 --> 00:07:53,460
once once the thing was all over

158
00:07:58,430 --> 00:07:55,500
the report started coming into my office

159
00:08:02,390 --> 00:07:58,440
but because it wasn't an FAA air traffic

160
00:08:04,790 --> 00:08:02,400
problem the faa's report ended up on a

161
00:08:07,010 --> 00:08:04,800
table in my office and stayed there

162
00:08:09,409 --> 00:08:07,020
until I retired when one of the staffers

163
00:08:12,170 --> 00:08:09,419
packed up all my gear and helped it

164
00:08:15,830 --> 00:08:12,180
moved to my house also in a box I found

165
00:08:18,770 --> 00:08:15,840
just a few good days ago in my 1992 tax

166
00:08:21,830 --> 00:08:18,780
return I have the target printouts from

167
00:08:25,010 --> 00:08:21,840
the computer data which so if you wanted

168
00:08:27,110 --> 00:08:25,020
to return or look at every Target that

169
00:08:29,089 --> 00:08:27,120
was up there at the time you can now

170
00:08:32,110 --> 00:08:29,099
reproduce this from this piece of paper

171
00:08:35,630 --> 00:08:32,120
here and it's called the UFO incident

172
00:08:37,750 --> 00:08:35,640
Japan 1648 I believe the number was that

173
00:08:41,269 --> 00:08:37,760
happened on November the 18th

174
00:08:42,649 --> 00:08:41,279
1986. I'm prepared to go to Congress to

175
00:08:44,449 --> 00:08:42,659
swim before Congress that everything

176
00:08:46,850 --> 00:08:44,459
I've told you people and everything that

177
00:08:49,150 --> 00:08:46,860
is here is the truth thank you having

178
00:08:51,350 --> 00:08:49,160
public participation in the UFO program

179
00:08:53,389 --> 00:08:51,360
caused an awful lot of headaches for the

180
00:08:55,009 --> 00:08:53,399
United States Air Force their regular

181
00:08:58,009 --> 00:08:55,019
relations indicated that they couldn't

182
00:09:00,410 --> 00:08:58,019
tell the public that there were unknowns

183
00:09:02,690 --> 00:09:00,420
that they were only to telepublic the

184
00:09:04,490 --> 00:09:02,700
ones that they had identified and

185
00:09:06,769 --> 00:09:04,500
because of this they had to give all

186
00:09:08,810 --> 00:09:06,779
types of explanations for UFOs and it

187
00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:08,820
caused the Air Force to have a very bad

188
00:09:12,949 --> 00:09:10,860
name not only that the information

189
00:09:14,750 --> 00:09:12,959
concerning UFOs was highly classified

190
00:09:17,150 --> 00:09:14,760
and having the public participation in

191
00:09:22,070 --> 00:09:17,160
the UFO program wasn't to the best of

192
00:09:26,210 --> 00:09:22,080
the Air Force interests so in December

193
00:09:28,190 --> 00:09:26,220
of 1969 December 17 1969 the United

194
00:09:31,009 --> 00:09:28,200
States Air Force again told the public

195
00:09:33,829 --> 00:09:31,019
that it had terminated its UFO program

196
00:09:36,070 --> 00:09:33,839
and now covertly invests investigates

197
00:09:38,389 --> 00:09:36,080
the better civilian sightings and

198
00:09:40,570 --> 00:09:38,399
concentrates mostly on government Source

199
00:09:45,230 --> 00:09:40,580
control cases and airline pilot cases

200
00:09:48,550 --> 00:09:45,240
under the order Janet 146 a joint Army

201
00:09:52,130 --> 00:09:48,560
Air Force Navy order which

202
00:09:53,870 --> 00:09:52,140
outlines what military civilian Pilots

203
00:09:55,550 --> 00:09:53,880
are supposed to do when they say see a

204
00:09:57,230 --> 00:09:55,560
UFO sighting they submitted what they

205
00:09:58,850 --> 00:09:57,240
call a surveys report which contains

206
00:10:01,550 --> 00:09:58,860
information vital to the security of the

207
00:10:03,590 --> 00:10:01,560
United States once they make an official

208
00:10:05,570 --> 00:10:03,600
report they're subjected to ten thousand

209
00:10:08,269 --> 00:10:05,580
dollar fine hand or ten years in jail if

210
00:10:12,170 --> 00:10:08,279
they reveal a contents of this report

211
00:10:14,750 --> 00:10:12,180
also in 1973 after the last huge UFO

212
00:10:17,110 --> 00:10:14,760
wave worldwide UFO wave UFOs

213
00:10:18,790 --> 00:10:17,120
mysteriously disappeared from the

214
00:10:22,009 --> 00:10:18,800
national

215
00:10:23,690 --> 00:10:22,019
newspapers the only way usually you're

216
00:10:25,190 --> 00:10:23,700
going to find about out about UFO

217
00:10:28,070 --> 00:10:25,200
sightings other than belonging to an

218
00:10:30,170 --> 00:10:28,080
organization who's investigating UFOs

219
00:10:33,590 --> 00:10:30,180
would be to subscribe to a local news

220
00:10:34,970 --> 00:10:33,600
clip service and you would see that UFO

221
00:10:36,410 --> 00:10:34,980
sightings are still happening in this

222
00:10:38,690 --> 00:10:36,420
country and abroad all over the place

223
00:10:41,150 --> 00:10:38,700
but they aren't getting reported on the

224
00:10:43,910 --> 00:10:41,160
national press which is very unusual and

225
00:10:46,730 --> 00:10:43,920
there was one recently in Alaska very

226
00:10:48,410 --> 00:10:46,740
unusual at that particular account in

227
00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:48,420
Alaska should get in the press it was a

228
00:10:52,730 --> 00:10:50,760
month afterwards it was kept out of the

229
00:10:56,630 --> 00:10:52,740
press for a month and this involved a

230
00:10:59,630 --> 00:10:56,640
huge UFO seen by a Japanese Airlines

231
00:11:02,210 --> 00:10:59,640
crew flying a cargo plane a Boeing 747

232
00:11:04,130 --> 00:11:02,220
into Anchorage Alaska and they were

233
00:11:07,250 --> 00:11:04,140
followed for hundreds of miles by this

234
00:11:08,990 --> 00:11:07,260
huge UFO which was described as a bowl

235
00:11:10,310 --> 00:11:09,000
inverted upon a bowl with a rim around

236
00:11:13,790 --> 00:11:10,320
it we call it the satin type

237
00:11:15,470 --> 00:11:13,800
configuration the pilots pilot and the

238
00:11:17,750 --> 00:11:15,480
crew members described it as being as

239
00:11:20,269 --> 00:11:17,760
large as two aircraft carriers placed

240
00:11:22,130 --> 00:11:20,279
side by side they tracked it on their

241
00:11:23,990 --> 00:11:22,140
weather radar to make sure that they

242
00:11:26,269 --> 00:11:24,000
weren't seeing things they were in

243
00:11:28,430 --> 00:11:26,279
contact with the FAA at Anchorage and

244
00:11:29,990 --> 00:11:28,440
also Elmendorf Air Force Base

245
00:11:33,470 --> 00:11:30,000
and they have said and they've

246
00:11:36,350 --> 00:11:33,480
maintained their story uh that that both

247
00:11:37,730 --> 00:11:36,360
locations also attracted on radar it

248
00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:37,740
wasn't mentioned in the press it was

249
00:11:43,490 --> 00:11:40,560
kept very quiet it broke in Japan around

250
00:11:45,230 --> 00:11:43,500
December 30th December 31st and got back

251
00:11:48,590 --> 00:11:45,240
into the press in this country after a

252
00:11:50,870 --> 00:11:48,600
month and immediately the FAA officials

253
00:11:54,290 --> 00:11:50,880
contradicted their own controllers the

254
00:11:56,930 --> 00:11:54,300
Air Force spokesman's also contradicted

255
00:11:59,690 --> 00:11:56,940
their own radar operators and told the

256
00:12:01,910 --> 00:11:59,700
press that FAA told the press that the

257
00:12:04,009 --> 00:12:01,920
radar was just a double image of the

258
00:12:05,569 --> 00:12:04,019
plane Elmendorf Air Force Base

259
00:12:07,850 --> 00:12:05,579
officially said that they were just

260
00:12:09,590 --> 00:12:07,860
picking up ground clutter the two

261
00:12:11,470 --> 00:12:09,600
smaller objects that which was seen with

262
00:12:13,970 --> 00:12:11,480
the big objects were described as being

263
00:12:15,590 --> 00:12:13,980
Mars and Jupiter and although they

264
00:12:17,990 --> 00:12:15,600
didn't look like Mars and Jupiter at all

265
00:12:19,610 --> 00:12:18,000
and the last I heard was that the FAA

266
00:12:21,130 --> 00:12:19,620
controllers were very upset about this

267
00:12:24,230 --> 00:12:21,140
and the Japanese

268
00:12:25,430 --> 00:12:24,240
pilots and pilot and the crew members

269
00:12:28,430 --> 00:12:25,440
are still sticking to their story
