Synsei,

Go over to Fighter Control website and see the logs of the intercepted communications. You will probably have to register to gain access to the radio log section.

FighterControl • Military Aviation Forum • Index page

AeroResource.co.uk • Home to the Aviation Enthusiast •

The title of the forum thread is 'QRA up with Blackdog'

Nothing was detected from communications in reference to investigating the 'object'.

By approximately 1830 local the helo incident was over and the Typhoons had requested clearance to break off. If one of the Typhoons had sought permission to monitor this object then do you not think that the request would have been monitored by the radio enthusiasts? Remember the F-15 radio intercept from East Anglia that investigated an object a few years ago?

It wasn't until around 2200 local that the Typhoons returned to RAF Coningsby after air refuelling and transiting back over East Anglia. By 1944 local the Typhoons and VC-10 were overhead RAF Marham. Do you not think that after a possible encounter with an object, as you describe, that the Typhoons would have returned to RAF Coningsby ASAP? Why was there no monitored communications to the controlling authorities of the Typhoon breaking off to investigate such an object?

You just have to look at the Mexican 'UFO' footage over the years to see how people can be fooled by solar and mylar balloons, etc. Also eye witnesses can be completely fooled as to what they are seeing. I read that some of those witnesses were reporting this object up at 35,000 feet! All I see here is a possible solar or mylar balloon in the area at the same time as the helo incident and the UFO / Conspiracy crowd trying to make the pieces fit. The Gazelle helicopter was also ex-military and some conspiracy die-hards are also trying to add this to their 'evidence' of strange going ons.
