If you just look here....



The lights you saw were swamp gas refracting light from Venus, you will ask no further questions.

Dubya.... I guess the best way to do it would be to use an audio recording program on your computer.... play the tape on a tape player and record it on your computer if you know what I mean...

Thanx, Archangel

Archangel:

I can neither confirm nor deny that the RAAF has no information relevant to this incident.

WOOMERA.....Where RU when needed????
"jsutapplhere"... are you seriouse? What is wrong with my post? I just want to hear the tape... that’s all! Nothing wacky about that mate! Maybe the wacky thing about this is that someone in 1979 claims to be chased by a UFO (which doesn’t have to be an aliencraft from another world....no one said that!) and disappears...its an interesting topic and we are all just stating the obvious and the evidence at hand...nothing much woomera can do about that I don’t think...An open general discussion!! otherwise we all might as well join a communist party and ignore the facts and forget about freedom of speech! which is what this site was Intended for in the first place... jsutapplhere people like you, are of the insecure type that are lining up like sheep to follow the media shepherd wherever it takes them and you call out for people like woomera to take over whenever people step out of line?"ohhh he shouldnt say that, it sounds too wacky"? To be perfectly honest, you sound like an idiot! I'm sorry Woomera but I find it ridiculous to see that there are people out there who don’t appreciate other peoples comments. Everyone has the right to an opinion!!!!!

The Valentich tape was played to FSO's on course in Henty House - to demonstrate how one should act when one was under the pump like the FSO was .. I was on one of the many courses in '89. I've also subsequently listened to it again since then.

The FSO outwardly, sounded cool calm and collected, the reverse could be said for Valentich.

Angel, yes, to answer your questions - it did sound legit and believable.

Having been on the other end of the maydays, I'd take a lot of convincing that the transmissions were anything else.

Having said that, there are of course, others with converse opinions.

As for the legality of the tapes .. remember that the original recording was on to the tapes that belonged to DCA/CAA/AsA and it's many other variants , as such, any copy of those tapes would have, shall we say, not necessarily been kosher ... nothing sinister in that.

So Angel and PPL ... chill ...

Deaf muses:

I never heard of any resolution of the landing/fuel theft/TO incident at Colac that evening.
Might also be the reason nothing is ever spoken about the Army Reserve excercise a couple of years later that spent some time looking in farm sheds around western Victoria. I understand they found all manner of interesting 'things' during that particular excercise.

I happened to be riding shotgun for a mate doing some Class 4 currency (now NVMC) in eastern Victoria that night and we listened to the whole thing, courtesy of frequency re-transmit.

1978, hell! that is nearly 30 years ago

Many people believe that UFOs are almost never reported by airplane pilots. Is this a fact?Has anyone one of you guys had to report a UFO? ...
I personally haven’t but I know of a work colleague who has experiences this. He tried to report it to ATC but before he had the chance he reckons there was a zap of light in the cockpit and he then lost all his electrics… I know he wasn’t talking crap because I saw the MR confirming they installed the new radios signed by the LAME and the Chief Pilot made him right an incident repot. And I asked the CP about this and he said it was true! Apparently it was a triangular shaped flying object just hovering above an area in Melbourne, for a few minutes and then just disappears at fantastic speeds! …. I personally believe that the prime suspect in the black triangle phenomena is the Aurora, the highly classified surveillance aircraft that according to the Pentagon does not exist. There were increasing numbers of reports of black triangles in the sky; triangles that could perform manoeuvres and achieve speeds that conventional aircraft couldn't match. I remember reading about it in the newspaper a while back that apparently in 1985 it was accidentally listed in the U.S. Department of Defences budget request for the following year (1986) listed under the heading of 'Air Breathing Reconnaissance'.

Possibly this is an unmanned aircraft which is capable of speeds in excess of Mach 6.....given the theory that this craft is powered by a new "pulse" type engine (or PED's - Pulsed Detonation Engines). I believe that the Aurora craft was designed to replace the aging SR-71 and F-117 aircraft used in top secret reconnaissance operations.

Watch out for those black triangles - they can get you in trouble, particularly if you approach unauthorised!

STICK TO THE TOPIC

WHAT THE FKKK

I am fed up with the Random comments from people like amos2... I think you are the one that needs to grow up mate!.. I said it before and I’ll say it again, WE ARE JUST HAVING A GENERAL DISCUSSION... and amos2 if you have nothing to say which has nothing to do with the current topic please just stay out of it and keep your immature critisisms to your self... Why is it so hard to stick to the topic???

amos2, I ask you a random question then..The question is, are you soaring with eagles or pecking with turkeys? because by the looks of things, you are pecking with the turkeys..I believe that we were not created to fit in but to stand out. It takes attitude – speaks our mind.. And... if you want to discuss Great Aviation Quotes I would be more then happy to open up another thread regarding that focus.. I'm sure there is one already, otherwise stay out of FREDS thread
