322 Suppressed Inventions and Other Discoveries
It is hard to know whether to laugh or cry over the incorrigible hypocrisy
with which the news media handled this story. How did the journalists deal
with this unprecedented manifestation of high strangeness in the skies of
Europe They understandably requested an explanation from NORAD.
However, when NORAD explained that what everyone had seen was debris
from a Soviet booster rocket, an explanation that was directly contradicted
by the observations the journalists had themselves recorded, this implausible
explanation was instantly and uncritically accepted by the news media,
which abdicated all pretense of independent reasoning and parroted it ad
nauseam as the only rational solution to the enigma of what had happened
that morning throughout six nations of Western Europe.
The next example of a deliberate and ostentatious UFO display did not
occur over a heavily populated area, but northeastern Alaska is certainly a
sensitive military zone. The report did not reach the U.S. news media until
January 1, 1987, though the incident happened on November 17, 1986.
The time lag between the date of the incident and the date the report was
made public supports the hypothesis of covert censorship of the news media.
This case bears a remarkable resemblance to the case officially announced
by the Soviet Academy of Sciences in 1985, in which a Soviet
airliner was followed by a UFO for approximately 800 miles.
The case of November 17, 1986, involved the pilot, co-pilot, and flight
engineer of a Japan Air Lines cargo jet that was making a return trip from
Iceland to Anchorage, Alaska. The crew members first became aware of
the three UFOs in the vicinity of their jet while over northeastern Alaska.
Two of the UFOs were small, but the third was enormous, twice the size
of an aircraft carrier. The UFOs followed the cargo jet for about 400 miles,
during nearly an hour. They emitted flashing amber, green, and yellow
lights. They played games with the jet: disappearing, reappearing, moving
at incredible speeds, and hovering. At one point, the two smaller UFOs
maintained positions directly in front of the cockpit of the cargo jet at
close range, pacing the jet for several minutes at a distance of only a few
feet in front of the cockpit, although the jet was traveling at 570 miles per
hour at the time.
The large object appeared on the radar screens of Federal Aviation
Administration flight controllers, who gave the Japan Air Lines pilot permission
to attempt evasive action. Veteran pilot Captain Terauchi carried
out evasive maneuvers, but was not able to shake off his pursuers. The
UFOs later abandoned the pursuit of their own accord, without having
taken any hostile action.
FAA officials interviewed the crew members upon their arrival at
Anchorage and issued a statement saying that the crew was "normal, professional,
rational, and had no drug or alcohol involvement."
