A commercial pilot has come forward to claim that his jet was buzzed by a UFO as it came in to land.
The anonymous pilot described witnessing a silvery white object shaped like a dish with three lights underneath and a dome-shaped top. The object flew directly underneath the plane as he was coming in to land at Kansas City International Airport before speeding away at an unfathomable velocity.

The incident left the pilot so shaken that he felt compelled to report it, despite risking his career and reputation in doing so. The story has made headlines on news sites around the web and on American television.
A pilot who wishes to remain anonymous has reported seeing a UFO near the Kansas City International airport. Despite the fear of being ostracized and maybe losing his job, the incident was scary enough to take the risk.

This is believable! The UFO issue is NO longer a question of believing or not believing. The UFO issue is now a question of knowing or not knowing. BTW, KCI is in Missouri. The UFO may well have been spotted over Kansas, but the airport is in Missouri. So making fun of Kansas is simply senseless. There have been lots of UFO sightings in Kansas. One afternoon in Kansas, my mother was sitting in her chair next to the farm house sliding glass door. She looked over to see something fly over the shelterbelt (windbreak) to the north at almost treetop level (cottonwoods). She said it was low enough a... [More]

Since he got a huge defense contractor award for inventing it and I have known this guy all my life, I seriously doubt your scoffing is going to make an impression here with me. Anyone else wanna relate their impression of the scoffing? Now what defense contractor would reside in Kansas? Think about it! or scoff without thought like donteatus did.

It is a question of knowing or not knowing. It really is just that simple. We know UFOs exist. That is not a question, that is a fact. It is the definition of something flying around that cannot be identified at the time of sighting. ET, on the other hand, which I guess you are alluding to, have always been a question of knowing or not knowing or believing or not believing, depending on your approach to the matter. Some are content with believing or not believing, I personally prefer to know. The sad thing is that regarding ET, we do not know. There is so far nothing known whatsoever. Cheers, ... [More]

It is a question of knowing or not knowing. It really is just that simple. For those who make the choice of knowing above believing, I agree. Unfortunately, we do not know about ET. I would love to know, but we simply can't yet - if ever. Cheers, Badeskov

And that is an opinion, not a fact, just like what I have said. My thinking stands. I KNOW!! You may not know, but I do. For those who make the choice of knowing above believing, I agree. Unfortunately, we do not know about ET. I would love to know, but we simply can't yet - if ever. Cheers, Badeskov

You got it wrong. Read it again. We know UFOs exist. That is not a question, that is a fact. It is the definition of something flying around that cannot be identified at the time of sighting. ET, on the other hand, which I guess you are alluding to, have always been a question of knowing or not knowing or believing or not believing, depending on your approach to the matter.

Well the only one I can think of is Boeing although they are closing down thier plant the last I heard in kansas.

UFO it may be. Certainly the government is focusing massive efforts on the development and use of unmanned stealthy aircraft. Regarding ET, well, logically if a civilization had the expertise to traverse the expanses of space and time, I really doubt we would even be aware of their presence. The ability to build on a nano or molecular scale to minimize mass and the effects of radiation would make them effectively invisible.

It was my friend's husband. My spouse is NOT an engineer. I had the link once, is on a computer a couple of replacements back. But you are warm. Well the only one I can think of is Boeing although they are closing down thier plant the last I heard in kansas. And though they are a defense contractor they are also one of the largest commercial manufacturers in the world as well. Just because your husband may have gotten some sort of award for something he may have created it does not have any bering here. Like Donteatus said most military aircraft are jets. I cant see how you can put anything on... [More]
