The mystery surrounding the 1953 "Kinross Case" may well be on its way to being solved. The "Kinross Case", so called for the name of the air force base (AFB) from which the plane departed, involves the disappearance of a fighter jet sent to investigate an unknown object that was tracked on radar.



A Michigan based company, The Great Lakes Dive Company, announced in 2005 that they had discovered the wreckage of a F-89 and an unknown object at the bottom of Lake Superior. Ufologists, who have been investigating this case, have been waiting for the results of side scan sonar and remotely operated vehicles (ROV) imaging that was to commence in 2006.

The company is owned by a group of Michigan engineers and divers who share a common interest in shipwreck hunting and historical preservation.

The history and mythology of the Kinross Case began on November 23, 1953. A US Air Force F-89 jet fighter was scrambled from the Kinross AFB in Michigan. The plane known as the Scorpion was sent on an "active air defense mission" to intercept an "unknown object." Speculation as to the identity of the object has been the subject of debate for over 50 years.

Im not sure i understand how the Radar saw the two objects merge.... and they must have collided at low level correlate to eachother...if if it was at such a low level surely it would be below the Radar's scanning capability at the time??
