Summary: Student Francisco Cavazos Flores and several friends watched a large disc shaped object land on a field about 30 meters from them. Three humanoids exited the object; all three were about 1 meter in height, with egg shaped heads. The beings seemed to be carrying sophisticated “weapons” and collected rock specimens from the ground. They soon left the area. A scorched area along with a sulfur-like smell was found in the area.

Summary: Two young men had gone out early one morning to check some hunting traps in a wooded area and as they approached the location they saw three sets of glowing eyes looking at them from the woods. The witnesses lay down on the ground as a gray metallic oval shaped object with a series of flashing lights and emitting a low humming sound flew slowly above the treetops. The object stopped briefly above a grove and ejected a bright ball of yellow light from its bottom front section. The sphere slowly descended and went down behind the trees. Shortly the oval shaped craft moved slowly away from the area. The boys then ran home to alert additional witnesses, and as they returned to the area they noticed the figure of a very tall muscular man run through a nearby ravine and across the road into the woods. A later search of the area found damage to the tops of several pines. Close encounter with a an unidentified craft and its occupants. Two discs, about 20 feet across, around 300 feet away, were observed by two witnesses. A humming sound was heard. One tall being was seen. 15′ disc at 200 feet altitude, hums, 4′ fireball exits and drops tall figure that runs. Traces.

Location: Atlantic Ocean (Canada/Iceland, midway between
Time: 0130
Duration: 30 minutes Shape: Light
Summary: Midway between Canada and Iceland at 31000 feet altitude we observed an object that was continually flashing from red to green to white. I would have estimated the initial contact to be about 75 miles off the nose of our aircraft and at approximately the same altitude. We were unable to pick up this object on our inflight radar…which had a range of over 500 miles. The object stayed at off our nose for about 20 minutes before rising to what I would have guessed to be over 70000 feet in altitude. It then came to a position almost directly over our aircraft. It stayed in this position for about ten minutes before it took off in an easterly direction at what I would have estimated to be over 70000 feet in altitude. I was the pilot on that particular flight. At the time, I had over 3000 hours of flight-time, mostly in jet aircraft. There were 17 other people on the aircraft who witnessed the same object. I did not learn of your reporting facility until I started listening to Art Bell. I’m sorry my report could not have been more timely. The type of aircraft I was flying was an E-3A AWACS aircraft. This was a military aircraft with airborne radar and surveillance capabilities. It has a crew of 17, all of whom witnessed the same object. We should have been able to pick the object up on our in-flight radar which was fully functional at the time we saw the object. In reference to your second question, we tried to make a report when we landed in Iceland, but noone in our debriefing knew how or whom to report such an incident. I hope this info helps. I find your reports on the Art Bell show very fascinating. I wish I knew about his show 15 years ago. Take care now.
