<snip>

Semi-"old timers" will know that we are fast coming up on the
20th anniversary of the disappearance of Frederich Valentich
who disappeared along with his small plane over the Bass Strait
while flying from Melbourne to King Island.

Date: Oct. 21, 1978, 7:12:28 pm local time, just after he said
"...is hovering and it's not an aircraft...."

Fred had described a strange object traveling back and
forth over his aicraft:"It's got a green light and a sort of
metallic light.  It's shiny on the outside."

Whym you may ask, dare I write quotes from a person who
disappeared (and hence was never "properly interviewed" about
his UFO sighting)?

Answer:   quote are abstracted from the AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL
CENTER (Melbourne) audio tape of the incident.   Fred was in
communication with the radar, but, unfortunately, was below the
altitude at which the radar would detect him..... and the other
object.

Yes, the bones of many reside at the bottom of the ocean, but on
the other hand, there was no evidence of problems with
Valentich's plane and.... no residue, flotsam, jetsam, junk,
evidence of any kind was ever found, yet there should have been
had he "simply" crashed into the ocean.

Fred was gone.....

is gone......
RIP.

(A search of the Bass Strait was carried out for several days.
Nothing was ever found)

Also:  Dec. 31 will be the 20th anniversary of the (formerly)
famous New Zealand sightings (multiple witness visual, 16 mm
color movie, ground radar, airplane radar, air traffic control
center audio tapes of the event, tape recording made by reporter
on the plane,  guaranteed "impossible" images under the
circumstances of the filming,  tons of analysis,etc., etc.)
