Britain's Closest Encounters C5

It must make the programmes a lot easier to make tho!-shame no-one has come up with an explaination for that ointment-i was hoping someone would!

The problem with the programme was that they kept going over incident in the aircraft ad infinitum, which got annoying, everytime there was an advert, which was all too often, we had to be reminded of the facts all over again, groan.

I bloody hate that, every damn US documentry does it so it takes an hour to tell a 20 minute story because you listen to the same stuff over & over & over. I can only assume it’s because Americans have the attention span of a goldfish.:mad:

but, if it was in Earth’s atmosphere and flying so fast – wouldn’t there have been a sonic boom???

Exactly, and it didn’t, I’m not a UFO enthusiast, and have heard sonic booms in the past, it was a silent streak of light travelling at a hell of a speed, no meteorite either, I’ve seen plenty of them as well, the thing had nav lights, I even had the bins trained on it, it was quite inexplicable, very odd.

…… I’ve never seen anything flying so high and so fast in my life, no way was it a sattelite either, it left a vapour trail in the night sky as well, very odd and unexplainable.

ooh, Aurora!

heading for Scotland’s Area 51 at Machrihanish perhaps!:eek:

or, probably, not.

Anyone know anything about that place, apart from what’s on the conspiracy websites?

All i know is it got a lot of money spent on it by the US, and it’s got a long-ish runway that goes out to sea.

And a big hangar. (Where they keep the bits of crashed spaceship and aliens in formaldehyde, presumably)

It was interesting and believable, but not well presented, apart from those great aircraft shots, I did like the story from the Meteor pilot though and the fact that a Canberra was sent to investigate, I bet that there’s some good stories still waiting to be told.

Only the other night I was sitting out in the garden cooling off, when I saw flashing lights in the sky. No, not another Stansted arrival, I’ve seen them before, it’s tumbling space debris in orbit, booster rockets, all kinds of crap whirling in space and intermittantly reflecting the sunlight, they look amazing, but it could draw all sorts of conclusions from the X-Files Brigade.
The only really unexplicable thing I’ve seen in recent times was something I reported in ‘Spotted’ last year, a very high flying fast moving object with nav lights, now I mean fast moving, without researching what I said originally because there are so many pages on that site, I seem to recall that one of our members spotted it minutes later up in the North East, I’ve never seen anything flying so high and so fast in my life, no way was it a sattelite either, it left a vapour trail in the night sky as well, very odd and unexplainable.

I have been watching and enjoyed the aircraft clips. It is refreshing change to see an up to date series which actually bothers to interview people with some knowledge af actual events and also include real explanations which the tabloids would not print.

Thankfully not everything seen in the skies can be explained, I enjoy the mystery.

Mock if you want, but I know what I saw. I’m beginning to sound like the programme now… 🙂

Or a citroen!!

Thought this thread was about aliens attempting to take over the Earth via Clive Sinclairs motorized plimsol

I have-but have found that ointment found on a dead body that no-ones been able to identify a bit more on my mind than anything else!
