In last week’s blog, we looked at a case that is typical of UFO reports in the news these days: it originated on social media, there was no proper name for the source, and a great deal of fruitless speculation and arguing followed. As if in answer to our complaints, a case showed up that has just about everything a researcher/investigator could hope for. It involves an Air Traffic Control recording of multiple pilots reporting strange lights moving around in unusual patterns near Eugene, Oregon. Supporting the fact that the recording is genuine, one of the pilots has come forward and talked to the news media.
According to the article by Flynn Nichols headlined “Pilots told to ‘maneuver’ around Oregon ‘UFO’ in leaked cabin audio” published on the Newsweek website on December 12, 2024, a 44-minute recording was posted on Reddit by user SabineRitter on Sunday (which was December 8, 2024). The link to the original recording on LiveATC.net no longer works (the recording seems to have been deleted from the site), but there is an edited 13-minute, 28-second version still available on Youtube as of this writing. The article was updated later the same day with the statement from the FAA that “a pilot reported seeing unidentified lights while flying in Seattle Air Route Traffic Control Center airspace on Saturday, December 7.” It is explained by Nichols that “The URL of the archived recording from LiveATC.net contains a timestamp (Dec-08-2024-0430Z), which specifies the date and time the recording began: 4.30 a.m. on December 8 in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or 8:30 p.m., December 7, in Oregon (PST)” and that “The URL also contains the code KEU, which is the airport code for Eugene Airport, and ZSE, which is the official abbreviation of the Seattle Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC).” Read more →

BIO
Todd Curtis has spent most of his career in aviation, first as a U.S. Air Force flight test engineer and later as a safety engineer at Boeing, analyzing airliner accidents and incidents and modeling aviation risks. He is also the author of the book ‘Understanding Aviation Safety Data,’ describing the process he and other aviation safety professionals use to assess and manage risk. Todd began studying UAP-related aviation risks after a UFO sighting directly above a passenger terminal at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport in 2006. While the observed craft did not cause any damage or injury, Todd considered the absence of any public investigation of potential risks by the FAA and other government authorities to be inappropriate and irresponsible. In June 2024 spoke at the Contact in the Desert Conference about his discovery in a NASA aviation safety database of 13 events involving a suspected UAP, including several near midair collisions. He is currently analyzing over 11,000 drone-related incident reports compiled by the FAA and has found several dozen events that were possibly UAP-related.

BIO: Carl Andreasen is a father of three and full time researcher and explorer of the mysteries of reality. Born in a small town in Southeast Idaho, he grew up adventuring in the wild near the Grand Teton Mountains, Yellowstone National Park, and the high deserts of Utah. Carl grew up with strange life experiences as a child that ultimately led him on many camping trips into known locations of UFO sightings, Bigfoot reports, and locations of high strangeness as a growing interest. After getting a degree in Social Work, Carl pursued his true passion in film-making and photography and he quickly became a successful online content creator and documentary filmmaker with an audience of over 3.2 million followers. Carl has worked in tandem with the team at Skinwalker Ranch and the owner Brandon Fugal – leading to an appearance on the History Channel series “Beyond Skinwalker Ranch” Season 1 Episode 2 and a follow up in Season 2 Episode 1. Carl has been a key research figure in rediscovering lost locations in Nevada and abroad, and even is expanding the research of Project Hessdalen in Norway. He personally utilizes research in quantum entanglement, human consciousness, various meditation methods and “Contact Protocol” – as well as working directly with Native American Indigenous teachers – to explore ancient locations known for paranormal phenomena and UFOs. This is done together with the scientific research of Dr Jim Segala of the Modular Unidentified Phenomena Alert System, and the advanced underground explorer team TexGru.
by UFO History Buff & Author, Charles Lear Amidst the reports of drone incursions over military bases and northern New Jersey, there was a story that made the news involving video footage reportedly taken by a co-pilot of an unidentified object in the sky above Manchester Airport in England, along with still shots of what was said to be the same object, seen to be a blue sphere, hovering over the tarmac. As is typical of UFO coverage in the news these days, when it’s not about what government officials think about the phenomenon, the origin of the story was a post on social media with no real names provided for the poster or the source. All that was left for those with an interest in the case was to conduct some rather imaginative analysis of the footage and argue back and forth over the possible alien origin of the object.
