Just for the record

Something happened during USAF veteran Gerry Flood’s Cold War duty in Alaska, and it had been bugging the retired military air traffic control radar operator for nearly half a century. As the years passed and turned to decades, he saw and read “a lot of bullshit UFO stories,” which got him to wrestling with his own piece of peculiar data. It was all ancient history, of course, but from his home in Birmingham, Mich., Flood recalls, “I figured I’ve got to make a record and put it out there somewhere, because this was a legitimate radar event and I would’ve been considered a trained witness.”

What else could a UFO making right-angle turns at 5,000 mph and detected by at least three radar stations be but an ice cloud?/CREDIT: 123rf.com

So in 2005, the old ATC guy decided to post his first-hand account at the UFO Evidence web site, where you can get the detailed account today. Scene-setter: Early 1958, January-February, Eielson Air Force Base outside Fairbanks, home to nuclear weapons and state-of-the-art U-2 surveillance technology, just months after the Soviet Union rattled the West with its successful launch of Sputnik. Sometime in the wee hours, 2-3 a.m., Flood was watching the scope when a target popped up and began logging speeds of up to 5,000 mph, sometimes at right angles. (NASA wouldn’t be able to reach those velocities with an experimental plane until 2004, when the unmanned X-43A managed to hit Mach 7 before exploding off California after an 11-second run.) With an assist from a search radar antenna, he was able to gauge its upper altitudes at 55,000 feet and beyond.

Flood alerted Distant Early Warning Line outposts as well as ground control approach counterparts at Ladd AFB, all of whom managed to track the bogey for up to four hours. But it stayed confined to a relatively narrow area and made no aggressive moves. Ultimately, around daybreak, a T-33 and a helicopter were ordered up for a look-see, but pilots reported only an “ice cloud” over a LAFB energy plant MOREHERE
