It was a great time for aeroplane spotters too with all the unusual UK stuff associated with that.
What year was the Bass Strait ufo episode?
It was the 20th / 21st October, 1978. George Simpson (Author) said a farmer in the Murray Bridge area had observed an aircraft stuck to the side of a ufo, a few days after Valentich’s disappearance. A few months ago I was chatting with some Cobden pilots. 2 of them said there was a chap in the Cape Otway area that witnessed the aircraft stuck to a ufo and the chap was recently living on the western side of warrnambool. Maybe the second witness read George’s book? If not, 2 witnesses corroborating the same story is interesting.
