Chasing and Being Chased by UFOs The news has been abuzz about some type of aircraft which didn’t show up on radar. It flew over the west coast in October 2017, but we are just getting the story now. No commercial or Air Force planes were able to get near enough to it to identify it. This is the strange part, because the plane was said to be traveling at 425 miles an hour. I say strange, because if we believe this we have to believe an F-15 fighter plane which can travel at least four times that fast couldn’t catch it. But wait, one pilot who was flying a commercial plane was asked if he could see it and he said yes and described the object as looking like a white rock. This means he was either incorrect in his identification or he was watching something which was a secret craft or alien UFO. There is another possibility, it might have been a foreign craft which was very advanced and being tested to see if the United States could pick it up on radar. Let’s hope this was not what was going on, because it might mean there is a new sophisticated weapon in the world which is very dangerous. In another report it was said the reason the object was not caught up with by the F-15 was it just disappeared. By the way it is believed the F-15 can reach a top speed of 1,875 miles per hour. This certainly is not the first time an unidentified aircraft was being chased and vanished. Before I get into that I would like to talk about just the opposite type of event. In 1953 an unidentified craft was seen flying into a restricted airspace along the US-Canadian border. A jet was sent up to seek out the object. The plane was flying at about 500 miles per hour and at 30,000 feet. The plane had a maximum speed of 635 miles per hour. It was a time when we were on the verge of the Cold War and the military was very nervous, because they suspected enemy planes were infiltrating our skies. We also have to remember in 1952 UFOs had flown over the White House for several days. A radar operator stated he could see one plane merging with the object on his radar and vanish. There were two US pilots in the plane. After this happened no trace of the plane was ever found and the military began to change its story about the events of that night. Suddenly the bogy was being called a Canadian jet and even later it was claimed the pilot flying the plane was experiencing vertigo and crashed into a lake he was flying over. Here is another event which also is different. It took place in 1965 over some Japanese islands. Apparently, there had been a rogue craft flying over these islands when three different planes reported being chased by the UFO. The pilots all reported the object was a UFO and described it as a flying saucer. I think in at least some cases it was more like being followed than chased. One plane reported a luminous object followed it, stopped then went around to the left wing of the aircraft and followed from there. The object was said to have a greenish light coming from it and this was said to have an effect on some of the devices on the plane. Another plane’s pilot said he had 20 years of experience flying and never saw anything like the UFO before. His plane began to be followed by the UFO and fearing a collision he turned the plane 60 degrees, but the UFO did the same thing and continued to follow for a while. The third plane was a Piper-Apache. The pilot of that plane reported seeing the UFO and it was in about the same spot as the other planes encountered it. The excuse was the pilots were seeing a reflection of their own planes. If you believe this I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn. In 1983 witnesses stated they saw a UFO being chased by military jets in the sky over their house. Apparently, the jets couldn’t catch the UFO and returned to base. It has come to light there had been radar contacts with the UFO and its speed was estimated at 660 miles per hour, but sometimes as high as 3,900 miles per hour. It seemed to be playing with the jets since it could easily outdistance them. The description of the UFO was an orange ball, about 100 meters in diameter and was sending a beam into the water. Why would a UFO stay just barely ahead of planes and at some point, just speed off when it could have sped off initially? In 2014 a couple of reports came out saying there was a sphere-shaped UFO in the sky over Orange County, California. The first report told of a helicopter chasing the UFO. A witness who saw this said it was night and when he looked up he saw an orb-like object which had a light from a helicopter shining on it. The orb was silent and the helicopter very noisy. Both craft were flying very low and the witness noted this. The witness went on to say after the light was shined on the UFO it would go out. Can you imagine a helicopter trying to catch a UFO a F-15 can’t catch? The UFO got away, surprise, surprise. The second event had a F-15 chasing the UFO. A witness was sitting in his car when he witnessed this event. The UFO escaped again. One story which keeps coming up is about the Red Baron in World War I. He was possibly the greatest air ace of all time. His name was Manfred Freiherr von Richthofen. It is said one morning when he was in the air he noticed a silver saucer with orange lights flying upside down over Belgium in 1917. The fight between von Richthofen and the UFO was witnessed by Peter Waitzrick another German ace. He said, “We were terrified because we’d never seen anything like it before. The Baron immediately opened fire and the thing went down like a rock, shearing off tree limbs as it crashed into the woods.” Two aliens were seen running off into the trees. Could a World War I aircraft have caught a UFO by surprise and have the ability to shoot it down? Waitzrick said this is what happened. Waitzrick kept the secret and never mentioned the event until he was 105 years old. |
