Might be worth checking back on this one as the BBC have asked for anyone living in the area to provide any pictures or Video they might have.

Interesting stuff, i will deffo keep an eye out for any updates.

Nice find. Intersting for sure, but there are way to many "normal" explantions for this type of "sighting".

Okay Guys....Update

Video Interview with the Pilot........He knows what he and his passengers saw....Note what the authorities say. Well done to this Pilot for having the balls to go on record on TV.

After seeing the Pilot being interviewed and describing the craft i'd be interested to know what "Normal" explanation you could give for it ?

Agreed
This was not the normal sort of craft. Maybe secret project? Def needs to be looked at.

good find bogey....keep up the good posting...

Should be interesting to see how they try to explain this one.

Agreed
BUT What "secret project could possibly call for two huuuuge craft of this size ? And how secret could you keep these things ....It stands to reason that smaller prototypes would first have been made and if so what have they ever been used for......Even secret flying technology only has a shelf life of 20/30 years as the U2 and Stealth bomber have proven....so what's going on guys

Well, what we do know is what they were seeing was actually there. We have witnesess and radar evidence. Mind you, there are many cases like this. There is no question that these objects are being seen, all over the world. But what they are, we just dont know.

These's guys see alot more then they tell i think...Nice find lets hope they keep talking....

very interesting. for some reason i feel like we're on the edge of something major, but maybe that feeling is just correlating with the increased attention i am able to pay to this topic since joining UM. it's so exciting each time there is another sighting like this by a 'reputable' observer. i had a dream the other night that huge ships were floating low over the area with smaller ships zipping around and cameras with lights pointing around all over. everyone in the dream was hiding in this gas station bugging out. i need to spend less time on this site lol........ nahhhh ain't gonna happen

to any aliens with remote access to the internet and this forum: PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COME INTERUPT THE DAILY GRIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (no illegal aliens please)

I would agree with that. This comment from the original report has me thinking.

"Such light effects are often popularly thought to represent alien visitors but many UFO researchers believe they more likely represent natural, atmospheric, phenomena not yet fully understood by science."

Is it possable that many so called UFO researchers are really part of the cover-up???

I still think we need to trust our own perceptions more than listen to the ???? experts.

I think that anyone listening to the pilot being interviewed can have no doubts that what he saw was a craft and not a lightshow......a light of this size would be even more unlikely than a craft imo.

Bogeyman! Great find!

And very interesting that these were seen OVER WATER

Alot of UFO's are seen around or over water...

I hope we hear more about this sighting.

Since this was seen on Radar, do you think they will release a statement or what ever like the small bit they did finally give about the UFO seen over the Chicago Airport back in November? Or will it be "swept under the rug" and suppressed from the public as often the case goes with UFO sightings?

This certainly is an amazing case.

Holy macaroni am I ever with you on that one!

I commend the pilot because most pilot UFO encounters go unreported for reasons of job security and fear of ridicule. In 1966, six military pilots from Travis AFB, CA. were interviewed about their UFO encounters and stated that they refused to report their encounters for fear of ridicule.

Very interesting article...thanks for sharing.

And here is the video link of pilot Ray Bowyer and his statements to reporter Nick Wade

I love sightings that hold there own weight.

Im still curious if this is a Pre-Conditioning program, To make more 'Accept'.

Well we wouldn't want the MOD wasting the precious taxpayers money on something they might actually be interested to know about.

This pilot has certainly been very brave to come forward about his sighting, i bet the pilot is very fearful that he may lose his job over this. Its very sad that pilots have to fear coming forward, they really shouldn't have to be so scared to come forward.

Well, chances are good to excellent that with the amount of coverage UFOs have been getting lately that more and more professionals will step forward even stronger in the near future.

Hey Sam - I listened to your pod cast. Pretty interesting there buddy! I've also been follow Gary's hacking case quite closely and personally, I think he's being treated extremely unfairly.

Yes i have to agree Mr. McKinnon is not going to get a very fair trial in the United States.

I have just created a new thread about the extradition.

I hope hackers around the world have a plan to counter this, that's all I can say.

I agree! One only has to take a look at what happened to the captain of the Japanese B-747 who reported his UFO encounter.

i

hey guys, this happened from guernsey, and guernsey is where im from, apparantly the pilots and passengers saw it around alderney, it was front page in the guernsey press here is the link from the guernsey website guernsey link there has never been anything this big about UFO's around guernsey. i have seen a few in my time here, you can read about that as i have posted them here in the past.

Cool!

i seem to be the only sarnian on this forum (sarnian=guernsey folk) so i will keep you updated with what news i hear here, as news on guernsey travels around. its only a small island...google it!!!!! i will scan the picture of where it was seen that was shown in the press and post it on here.

It's sad how you can lose your reputation and/or job just by telling the truth! Anyway, nice find bogey!

The conditioning that has been done to humans over the last 40 years; is almost criminal....If you see ufo's or talk about them your crazy...they did this to us....we werent preprogrammed...

Incarnate

Were there any sightings from the Island itself.....according to the Pilot these things were huge. It'd be cool if someone got some photo's of it.
Bogey

well im not sure yet, as when this happened i was in america, i only came back on tuesday and it happened just before i came back or something. when and if i hear any sightings from guernsey itself i will let you all know. and if I see anything unusual i shall tell all

Yes Incarnate - I'd be very curious myself. I mean a mile wide. Someone with a camera MUST have caught it.

yes but i saw where it was meant to have been seen, and that is the north of guernsey...where the only thing up there is 1 hotel and a beach...so i doubt that...and it was closer to alderney, and hardly anyone lives there, and i dont think they know what technology is this UFO is clever see.

Well Guernseyman, we do have technology over here in Alderney, I managed to start a flint fire this morning all by myself....

Heres a pic I found on the web of Capt Bowyer's sighting. I added it to te other thread yesterday. Hard to really get a good look though.

If anyone is interested I know Ray Bowyer well, so if I find any more info that I didnt put in the other thread, I'll let you know...

Cheers

Cool. And hey - if you do see him, let him know that we think he's neither deluded nor untrustworthy as a pilot - despite whatever claims he may have heard from his higher ups. He and many other of his peers should continue letting people know what is going on up there in the skies. And also thanks for the photo!

Dont worry, he knows what he saw and theres not many people around these parts calling him deluded!! As far as I know it was his 'higher ups' that encouraged him to go public...

I'll try and find out if anyone else from the Islands saw these things and will update as and when.

It says that the objects were stationary, this would have to deny most of the generic explanations for UFO phenomena would it not?

hehe so who took that pic? or do you not know? and was it taken from alderney or guernsey? so have you spoken to ray himself about this?

Not sure who took the pic, but I understnd it was someone on the plane. I just found it searching for more info. If it was someone on the flight I'd assume it was in Alderney.

Yes, I have spoken to Ray, but he didnt elaborate on much more that we already know. He did mention however that soon after he reported his sighting there were 3 military aircraft in the area. Idont know where he got that info, possibly Jersey ATC.

UFO's that i've seen can stop on a dime and sit stationary...for as long as they want...it's a whole different kind of propulsion from what i've seen...

I have a problem with the "wait and see" people and the "this can be explained away" people. My position is that until somebody can prove to me that aliens do NOT exist....I am going to assume they do. Afterall, look at all the things we believe exist now that at one time in mankinds history, we did not!

I think the publics attitude is changing, especially as more and more credible people come forward.

This is probably just a coincidence.... but how strange an Earthquake happens a bit after the two Pilots saw the strange huge UFO's

BBC article on Kent Earthquake

Thats what im thinking. im not really a ufo buff, but i find it strange that the craft were reported to be a mile wide each wich is a big craft and around the same area earthquakes wich are not very common for that area.
personally i think there is a connection.

The quake happened yesterday, Saturday, April 28th. That sighting occurred mid last week on Wednesday the 25th, IIRC.

Well I don't think it's too far fetched to wonder if UFO's and Earthquakes are related at times..

I recently ran acrossed this interesting bit that was broadcast way back on June 4th, 1975

Read / listen to this here on CBC

UFO's and Earthquakes

BTW, I live in what is considered the "Pacific Ring / Rim of Fire" .... and at times, I've wondered over the years that shortly before or after a UFO sighting, there has also been earthquakes here.

Could very well be. It's highly possible that internal pressures could build and have some electrical discharge effect on the upper atmosphere. I would imagine the affected area could easily be quite large, hence the "mile wide" comment by the pilot.
