| Massive UFO without wings seen first by tail gunner of plane in anti-submarine squadron; the "intercom became jumble"(Does this mean an EM effect was present or that everyone was talking at once.) In view for 15 mins, executed 180 degree turn and disappeared. Photo taken. | 1942 Nov | Bay of Biscay | Original | CRIFO Orbit, Jan 1955 | |
| "...the plane gained a most unusual companion. A "dark shadow" appeared along side the plane and kept pace with it, at a distance of only some 100 to 150 feet. The Beaufort was travelling at about 235 miles per hour. The object appeared to have a flickering light and flame belching from its rear end. Only about 15 feet of the rear end of the UFO was visible to the bomber crew, apparently due to "reflection of light from the exhaust." The strange object stayed with the bomber for some 18 to 20 minutes, during which time all radio and direction finding instruments refused to function. It finally accelerated away from the plane at approximately three times the speed of the bomber. Upon landing, the pilot reported the incident to his base superiors, but he claimed he was only laughed at. Such a reaction seems extraordinary in retrospect since it turns out that Beauforts figured heavily in official RAAF list of planes that "went missing without trace" during World War Two in the Bass Strait area - an area that was not linked to any significant enemy activity. I have been told that the Beauforts had a mechanical problem that may have accounted for some of these losses." | February, 1944 | 2:30AM | 4,500 feet over Bass Strait (Aus) | From legion@werple.net.au 10/97 Source: Bill Chalker |

| "Navy planes on mission approached by two large discs, radar
jammed, radio transmitter blocked by buzzing noise each time new frequency
tried." "I was watching the ground below for the convoy... and I was startled to see two large circular shadows coming along the ground from the northwest at a high rate of speed. We were flying north above a valley which was surrounded on the east and west by mountains, with a pass directly ahead of us to the north... [The objects] were huge [based on the radar returns and the visual impression]. They were also going... about 1000 or 1200 miles an hour. My radar display indicated 1.5 miles [to] the objects... when the objects suddenly seemed to halt, back up, and begin a 'jittering' or 'fibrillating' motion... I readied my guns, which automatically readied the gun cameras... the radar went haywire. The screen 'bloomed' and became very bright. I tried to reduce the brightness by turning down the sensitivity, but this had no effect... my radar had been jammed and was useless. I then called the carrier... and my reciever was out - blocked by a strange buzzing noise. I tried two other frequencies, but couldn't get through. Each time I switched frequencies, the band was clear for a moment, then the buzzing began... "...the objects were still ... out there ahead of us, maintaining our speed... [and then] the things began manuvering around our planes, circling above and below... Before my radar was put out of commission, I used the indicated range plus points of reference on the canopy to determine their size. They were at least 600 or possibly 700 feet in diameter... "The objects had a 'silvered mirror' appearance, with a reddish glow surrounding them. They were shaped somewhat like a coolie's hat, with oblong ports from which emanated a copper green colored light which gradually shifted to pale pastel colored lights and back to copper green again. Above the ports was a shimmering red ring which encircled the top portion... "... in the middle of the underside was a circular area, coal black and non-reflective... although the whole object 'jittered' while manuvering, the black circular portion on the bottom was steady and showed no indication of movement... "... all of the men in the flight had noticed a feeling of warmth in the airplane and... a high-frequency vibration. "...the objects seemingly finished their inspection of the Navy planes, they took off in the direction from which they had come, and disappeared at a high rate of speed... the instrument dials on their [aircraft] had become extremely luminous and all the gun camera film was fogged or exposed, although none of the crews had used guns or cameras." |

| Round object making a buzzing sound seen in sky after two-way
radio went dead. Object later seen and photographed at Porto Maldonado.
At about 16:30 in the afternoon of 19 July 1952, the attention of Customs Inspector, Sr. Domingo Troncoso, then with the Peruvian Customs Office at Puerto Maldonado on the jungle frontier with Bolivia, was called to a very strange cigar-shaped flying object over the river area. The big dirigible-shaped craft was flying horizontally and fairly low in the sky, passing from right to left from the observer's position. It was leaving a dense trail of thick smoke, vapor, or substance of some kind on its wake. The thick, whitish substance appeared to be emitted from the aft end of the object in flight.That this object was a real, structured, physical machine may be seen from its reflection in the waters of the Madre de Dios river underneath it.It can be clearly seen to be well above the broad-leaved jungle trees along the bank of the river in the forground of the picture. The object was estimated to be over a hundred feet long. Sr. Troncoso obtained a camera and was able to get one good photograph of the cigar-shaped object."[footnote 2] "The following was submitted by Colonel McHenry Hamilton, Jr, USAF, American Air Attache, Lima, Peru. Aside from some comments by the preparing officer, the report consisted of a translation of a newspaper article in a Lima daily. "A "luminous disc" was supposed to have sped over the Puerto Maldonado area of Peru near the Bolivian border at 4:50 p.m. on July 19th [1951], and among those who claimed to have witnessed the passage was a Peruvian school teacher who took a picture of the UFO, an object that was spewing an impressive wake of smoke. A newspaper account read in part: "The colour of the head or nucleus of this disc was an intense orange. The direction was south to north, was visible from 1 to 2 minutes, leaving a thick vaporous trail which floated for more than 15 minutes. The altitude was more or less 2500 to 3000 feet. It was seen in broad daylight. During its passage, the Peruvian Corporation of the Amazon radio went dead and wasn't able to transmit or receive any signals." "The Peruvian Minister of Education later held discussions with American Embassy officials about the UFO report. The school teacher's photograph and an article about the discussion with the Americans was published in the August 15th issue of the Lima newspaper El Comercio. (Reference 94) "The American Intelligence report on the case seems to be incomplete because there is an unexplained reference to more than one photograph. Colonel Hamilton was informed by Peruvian authorities that some falsification had occurred involving "three different photographs taken by three different persons."[footnote 3] "In a letter dated August 10, 1957, Mr. Moseley gave NICAP the following account of the incident: "In Lima I met Senior Pedro Bardi, who is an agricultural engineer. On July 19, 1952, while on a farm in the Madre de Dios section of Peru, he and others saw a saucer. It was about 4.30 p.m. and they were talking to Lima by radio. "Suddenly, according to Bardi, the radio went dead. They looked out the window and saw a round object going by at high speed. (The witnesses included Pedro Arellano, owner of the farm). The object had passed; it was at an estimated 100 meters altitude and was a little smaller than a DC-3, according to Bardi. It made a buzzing sound as it went by." "The object's speed, Moseley explains, was determined by a report that it was seen four minutes later near Porto Maldonado, 120 kilometers distant. This speed was computed at 1117 miles per hour. "The photograph was secured from a customs administrator named Domingo Troncosco, who said he had taken it as the object flew near the port. Though the photo shows a cigar-shaped object instead of the round shape Bardi described, this could possibly have been due to an elongated effect caused by speed. "It seems obvious to me", Moseley told NICAP, "that the photo is genuine. Incidentally, I (strongly doubt) if this particular saucer was anything but earth-made." "Though NICAP has no reason to doubt the picture's authenticity, we are unable to make an accurate analysis without the negative."[footnote 4] "The object traveled from left to right at about airplane speed. When the trail settled to ground it turned out to be a mass of thin fibery threads."[footnote 5] |

| Andy Florio, a musician, was driving from Tuscon to El Paso on Highway 80 when he saw a "disc-machine "... at least 100 ft. in diameter, 25 ft. thick, dirty gold or bronze with circular openings around its rim from which amber-coloured lights protruded. Bluish-green lights were "shining and flickering upward" from its roof. "It made the sound of electrical humming with stronger and softer volume. It yawed, swayed back and forth and turned over on its axis once as I stood out of my car on the driver's side ... It tipped over on its side and shot a brilliant, blinding white-coloured beam of light at me, bubbling the dome of the paint on the car as well as burning my elbow." Mr. Florio felt a needle-like tingling sensation and heat all over his body and nausea a few weeks later. The radio stopped, lights dimmed and the motor chugged at a speed of 12-15 miles an hour "as though it might stall any second." When he arrived at a garage in El Paso the next afternoon, "half the acid was gone from the battery, I was running on three plugs, and my radio was burned out completely."

| An unusual amount of static on a portable radio was noticed by a pilot/Captain in the USAF (500 combat hours) when another person called his attention to an object outside which had been seen for 5 mins. Object was an ellipse estimated to be 150' long, 30' high at altitude of 5000', 2 mi away (all estimates are probably only relatively reliable); object glowed yellow at center shading to orange-red at edge. Object wobbled through 30 deg deflection for 10 secs and then began to pulsate at 1-2 sec per pulse; object became completely orange during each pulse; this lasted for 20-30 secs. Then object moved, wobbled, stopped. A move/wobble/stop/pulsate cycle occurred 4-5 times. After 20 mins, during which the object moved 45 deg azimuth, it moved away, accelerating, until it was indistinguishable from the stars. It was noticed that a flourescent lamp flickered during (but not before or after) sighting; incandescent lights were not affected. Five or six radios were checked - all exhibited unusual static. Object was first observed near power lines. | Oct 29 1957 | 2230 | Selma, AL (?) | Jan Aldrich 10/97 | Loren Gross "UFOs: A history, 1957; 10/1 to 11/2" |

interrupted their car radio. Nothing seemed wrong with the car so they resumed
their drive. About 2km further down the road they encountered six or more
glowing white lights which were shining upon a paddock from an estimated
height of three metres. This sight was accompanied by a piercing shrill
sound. The couple did not stop to investigate. Further down the road the
car radio was affected again, while the lights could be seen in the paddock
behind them. "Mr. and Mrs. French observed an object in a field at 4 m altitude. It had blinding white lights, caused radio interference, and made a high-pitched sound. (Spaceview 44; LDLN 80)." (Magonia) |

unable to use radio "A police officer observed an object in the southwest. He thought it was a plane about to crash, although no sound was audible. He tried to contact the police headquarters, but his radio transmitter did not work properly. The object, which now colored lights spinning at the periphery, and a diameter of 16 m, came within 25 m of the patrol car,following it for 1 km, then flew off toward the north-west.

| Captain Gordon Smith and Captain Walter Gardin were flying from Adelaide to Perth in a Piper Navajo aircraft, at 2400m. Some distance ahead they sighted "a formation of aircraft." There was a large one and four or five smaller ones. These objects appeared to be keeping station with the plane. Kalgoorlie Air Traffic Control advised no known aircraft in the area. Communications were then lost by the plane. The main UFO split into two sections with the smaller objects manoeuvring around. Then the whole formation joined together and departed at tremendous speed. | Aug 22 1968 | 1740hrs | Zanthus WA NL | Original | 1. Victorian UFO Research Society. 2. Flying Saucer Review 24(5):9-10 |

| This very unusual event occurred to Mrs Andrea Richards, housewife,
thirty four, and her daughters Janine (eight) and Kathleen (five) when they
were travelling home to The Marches near St Helens. Weatherwise it was a
light drizzling rain, on a dark night. They were all very tired when suddenly
static was heard on the radio. As soon as the static began the sky directly
ahead became brightly lit up. The car lost power on a gentle incline, then
stopped dead. The headlights, radio, heater, and dashboard lights all went
out, and it was dark apart form the light in the sky. Mrs Richards tried
to start the car but after ten seconds a deafening, vibrating noise enveloped
the car. This lasted about a minute. Almost simultaneously, quite painful,
electric shocks began penetrating their bodies. The car was then filled with an invisible chocking smell. Both Mrs Richards and Janine jumped out of the car taking Kathleen with them. They fled down the road leaving the car. The light in the sky was still visible. They went to a house. Upon returning to the car the car started alright. The next day it was checked at a garage but no faults were found. Mrs Richards suffered a numb right side to the face and a two cent sized red mark above her right eyebrow. The day after, her arms and fingers were badly swollen and she had difficulty walking. |

| Sitting in her car waiting for someone, a woman noticed the
surrounding rain, mist and wind in the isolated spot she found herself in.
She heard the radio announcer give the time then all of a sudden the surroundings
were just lit up. The radio developed a high pitched whistling noise. An
object approached from the top of a nearby hill. As it came towards her
she started the car and backed up the road until the car stuck in mud. The object meanwhile continued to approach and hovered for a short while before sweeping around the road junction and then back to the position it was first seen in. The speed up till then had been fairly slow, but when it swept around the hill a tubular shaped thing on the bottom of it opened into sections and the object speed upwards fairly rapidly. The lady then left the car and ran to her house. Her husband and son returned to the car but could find nothing wrong. The next day a tow truck collected the vehicle. The front of it was exceptionally clean although the rest of the body was dirty. There had previously been cat's prints all over the bonnet but the bonnet was clean when the car was brought back. |

| A man ( name supplied ) while traveling alone towards Hardy's
Bay on the Central Coast of N.S.W. along the Maitland Bay Wreck Road, had
a good view over the ocean towards North Head Sydney. He suddenly noticed
a " bright green glow " emanating from below an escarpment. The glow was
lighting up the underside of the sea mist from the ocean. As he rounded a curve in the road, his vehicles engine began misfiring and the radio and lights failed. Another vehicle approaching him also had trouble with his headlights dimming and flickering. He tried to wave the approaching driver over, but on rounding the corner realized why the driver wanted to continue. Suddenly his engine stopped. Then a " huge bright silver object, tubular in shape with bright green glowing ends came up the escarpment. It was so large it filled the entire windscreen ", he reported. He also states that the whole inside of his car lit up green. There was a " pounding " noise in his ears, like stereo speakers turned up loud and they vibrate. He also felt as if he was being " forced " down into the seat of his car. The object passed over the top of his car and gained altitude at speed. He was then able to restart the engine and continue his journey home. When arriving home, he was greeted by his over excited wife, bursting with something to tell him. She had also witnessed the same object from her location. Apparently over 200 people had phoned the local radio station from as far a way as Wyong and the Entrance to report this sighting at Maitland Bay. That same night a professional fisherman from Hardy's Bay was 20 Km out to sea off Maitland Wreck. At about 10:05 PM he said he heard a strange noise like " water boiling and hissing ". He then noticed a bright green light traveling under the water about 200 meters in front of his trawler, but lost sight of it through the sea mist. This sighting was three days prior to the mysterious disappearance of Mr. Frederick Valentik, and his plane, over Bass Straight. |

the station button had no effect and the radio remained dead. Seconds later
an intense white light enveloped the car and he could not see beyond the
bonnet. The car's lights and motor failed in the same instant. Beyond this
events are vague and the next thing he knew he was being stopped by police
for driving his car without lights. He was taken to hospital and examined where he was found to be in a state of shock. His vehicle, a Ford Cortina 71TC, was inspected and found to have a flat battery and the oil level was low.
