Background

The following case was submitted to The Black Vault / TBV Investigations. There was no formal investigation to the case, and is offered here for informational purposes.

Witness Testimony

The witness submitted the following testimony:

I was 10 years old, I could never sleep when i should have been so I often looked out my window at night. I had my radio playing, low enough that my parents couldn’t hear me downstairs and I just stared out of my window from time to time when I couldn’t find anything on the three channels available on my TV.

It was a summer night when I was sent to bed and as usual I would occasionally look out the window. One night, I saw a triangular shaped aircraft slowly fly from behind the house into the distance.

I watched it fly, slowly, across the sky until I could no longer see it. It had three lights in each corner of the craft as well as one larger light in the center. I never forgot what I saw and that sparked a life-long fascination with UFOs. I was shocked to learn that in the 80s and mid 90s it was one of the most common UFO sightings during that time.

The following is a transcript from an audio cassette recording of Henry McKay, around the 13 minute mark.

This would have been at either one of his lectures or his course.

The cassette is simply labelled as “UFO Talk H.H.M”. Date unknown. From the files of the Henry McKay UFO Archives.

NOTE: A few words are indiscernible, which have been marked with “????”.:

“In 1914, in a little community north of Lindsay, Ontario there was a munitions factory that was subjected to an intense light hovering over the area, over the village, causing concern to the people who were working in this munitions factory. They assumed it was some sort of German military aircraft ready to bomb them.

The foreman of the plant ???? the lights in the plant and fired at this light source driving it away. Only momentarily because apparently it came back.

This was reported in the Lindsay paper, many many years ago.”

The following is an extract from a paper written by Henry, which he presented at the first International UFO Congress in Acapulco, Mexico in 1977.

I believe I read something on the site one time about collecting sighting reports.

Well I had one recently and it was a dandy, so I’m going to pass it along to you.

I reported this (left a message on their answering machine) to some local observatory that was supposed to be interested in reports of such things but they never got back to me.

5 days ago on the morning of May 20 2015 I saw a HUGE unidentified object up in the morning sky here in Thunder Bay, Ontario (Canada). (point zero on Lake Superior)

I was sitting here at my computer at about 4:50 a.m. and I was replying to an e-mail a friend had sent me. My bedroom window was open and I could hear what I believed to be an airplane flying overhead. We get this a lot (all sorts of air traffic at all hours of the day and night) and I’m used to these sounds.

I’ve seen about every type of aircraft, blimp, stunt parachutists, and you name it that exists at one time or other. Even some very up close views of water bombers fighting a brush fire on the nearby Expressway. One time a friend and I even saw a Russian MIG fighter flying in low under the 200 mile radar limit.

I was about ready to head off to bed and had just pulled down my blinds. So while I could hear the object I couldn’t see anything out the window here at the time. Often times a plane will fly over and I will see it’s lights as I’m sitting here typing at night or in the early morning. Those are usually fairly low flying aircraft on their way to land at the airport across town on the south side. Not a big deal really.

I live on Theresa Street, which is on the north side of the city. Well away from the local airport, but from what I’m told in a very “busy air corridor” as they call it. Theresa street is close to the Expressway, so often times we can hear traffic when it’s quiet at night as well.

In any case, something was flying overhead. Normally things which sound like this did – a low but pretty loud rumbling sound – are up VERY high in the atmosphere (thousands of feet) where you would never see them. This one seemed to be taking forever to pass overhead, so I got really curious and thought “WTF” is going on here.

After saying something like “pass over head all fucking ready” out loud as I typed, I got so curious that I wondered if there were a fleet of cargo planes or some big military operation going on or something, so I decided to go look out the window in the kitchen on the opposite side of the house. I figured by the time I’d get the blind up it would be towards the front of the house, so I headed to the kitchen for a look to the south. I figured that whatever it was would be so high up that I’d never see it anyway.

I was wrong.

As I looked out the kitchen window I saw a huge object – which could be described as cigar shaped. It seemed to be grey in colour and HUGE. Really huge. It was flying very low in the sky. No more than 100 feet or so high I’d estimate. IF THAT. Much too low for most aircraft I’m familiar with to be flying. It was just above the roof tops and tree lines. As the object continued to move on a north to south course, moving slightly to the west at times I could see a series of lights on the back of the object.

Not on the bottom, like so many sightings you hear about of saucer shaped discs. This object was long, grey, and at the back it had 2 sets of red lights. Each a semi-circle of about 12 to 15 lights. One a semi-circle like an upside down U shape and the other a semi-circle like a letter U. They formed a circle – almost – there was a slight gap – but there were about 30 red lights in all and perhaps one blue or green light to the left side – outside the ring of lights.

I’m thinking the object was some type of secret military craft, but so far I’ve heard nothing about anyone else sighting anything like this around here of late.

I saw it out the window at about 5 minutes to 5 am (heard it a bit earlier) and watched it for about 5 minutes before it was out of sight – mainly due to trees and a large building nearby about a block away that blocks our view to the south.

In the distance as it was about where some trees are some blocks (3 maybe?) away from here. I could put my hands up to the window and if I put my two thumbs together and my two middle fingers together to form a circle (about the size of a LARGE naval orange) – that’s how big the circle of red lights was at that distance. Quite big.

In fact I did so while it was there just to get some measure of the size of the object.

I was looking for UFO images online one day and I found this, see inserted image below…

This is sort of what it looked like. I don’t know if it was as big as this image and I didn’t see any markings, doors, gun ports, antenna or saucers flying out of it, but the back of what I saw looked similar to this object. The dots on the rear of this object are similar to how the lights were on the back of what I saw – except they were all red.

I wish I’d thought to grab a camera (I have a cheap crappy one that can take video – the quality would not have been much at all – but it picks up light pretty good) but I wasn’t really expecting to see anything, let alone circles of red lights and huge oblong grey aircraft of some type.

Unfortunately I don’t even keep batteries in the camera in case of something like this happening because the batteries tend to die in it even when not in use and it takes expensive alkaline batteries and normal batteries don’t provide it with enough juice to power up. Major power pig for such a useless cheap sucky camera…

I saw what I did and I’m not afraid of debunkers or mockers etc….  I don’t see things that are not there and I didn’t see Venus, swamp gas, a weather balloon, ball lightning, The Northern Lights, or anything of that nature.

Date of Sighting: June 20, 1987
Time of Sighting: 12:15 PM Local Time
Date Reported: April 3, 2006
Duration of Sighting: Unknown
Location of Sighting: Cedar Point, Ontario, Canada (Southern Ontario)
Latitude:  44.8 Degrees North
Longitude: 80.18  Degrees West
Number of Witnesses: One
Weather: Clear Skies.

Description (In Witness’s Own Words):  The sighting occurred near Cedar Point, Ontario, Canada. I was flying my Citabria airplane at 3500 ft. ASL. The dull silver saucer shaped UFO was first sited over Christian Island as I was banking my aircraft to the right on a level turn. I opened my left side window to watch as the UFO passed approximately 500 ft. underneath my plane. I then banked the plane to the left so that I would not lose sight of it. The UFO continued on a straight and level path, and although I was going 110 m.p,h. the UFO’s speed was such that there was no way I could catch up to it. If I had to approximate it’s speed, I would guess at 400-600 m.p.h. As for the size of the UFO, I can’t really say, since there was nothing that I could compare it to. If I had to guess, I would say about 30 to 50 feet in diameter. It happened so quickly, but I did get a very good look at it. There were no windows or any markings on the UFO. The color was a dull silver, almost a grey color. I usually always carry a camera in my side pouch, but this time, it was in a bag behind the rear passenger seat. If I had a passenger with me at that time, I would have been able to get a very good picture with my 35mm camera! Now when I go flying, I always make sure that I have at least two cameras with me at all times.

Addition Information About Airplane Pilot Was Flying: The aircraft was manufactured by Champion Aircraft CO. in the USA.  The model is a Citabria 7ECA.

Investigator’s Notes: This is an example of a credible witness reporting an incredible sighting.  The witness did not report this sighting previously because he was afraid of ridicule.  He got a good look at the craft as it approached close to his aircraft.  The sighting occurred near the middle of a bright sunny day.  Not much more to say: Unidentified!

Today on Sunday,Oct.21,2007, was a great late Indian Summer day [Sunny -75 degree F ]. I went out to see a friend in Brampton, Ontario regarding Ufology and its connection to Experiencers. I noticed coming across the Hwy 401, heading west, at Kennedy Road. That’s to the north of the 401, a white trail line in the sky — 9:20 am. Probably leftovers from a jet’s trail 10-20000 ft.

I then noticed many flashes of white blue light in the sky around it. As I was driving, I snapped a few pictures from above the sunroof opening-facing west.My jaw dropped in viewing from the image [# 81] of dual white spheres with a trail, caught on film. These were NOT seen with the naked eye…

Remember the Whitby pictures that were lost and that were quite good- surprised timely, corrupted camera card? Appears, that I’m capturing better and closer pictures to confirm my update here BJ. I’m of course speculating, that allowances are being made for continued photographic evidence. Signs of contact are being more permitted in allowance in further photographic evidence of their presence here. I really don’t know how else to explain these observations that are escalating here. Maybe a lifetime summary in observations happening here, in random sample of our planet.

Enjoy the pictures-Take care my friend
