Last night, I was watching a show on UFOs, either on A&E or History Channel, sorry... Don't remember exactly. At any rate, it was addressing the fact that UFOs are government/military items and not necessarily from planet Munimula.

He clearly wrote Not Necessarily. You write only a small number have been. That is more debatable and can be discussed to no end without conclusion.
We can state that there is small percentage of UFO cases that remain unexplained after many years. However being unexplained does not present proof of extra terrestrial origin. Back to square one, to this day we still lack emperical evidence or proof that these sightings represent extra terrestrial vehicles.

The percentage is not as small as you think. Depending on whose investigating, the unexplained rate can be anywhere from 10-30%.
For example, Blue book claimed that out of 12,000 cases, only about 800 were unexplained. Truth is, many of the "explained" sightings were given most dubious explainations that stretched the limits of the investigator's credibility. The true number of unexplained were higher.
An unexplained does not mean ET, but it doesnt have to. Its not one single incident that has made people believe they were ET, it was the sum of many unexplainable incidents with characteristics of superior tech that no nation on earth has dupicated or come close to. If no one here makes them, then who does?

The Avrocar was a lesson in futility. Although I did learn some new information about the designer, the weight to power ratio reduced it to a foot note in Designs Gone Bad history. With todays fly by wire and composite construction technologies, there's probably a remote chance the Avrocar would get airbourne, but its noise and slow speed would still render it very unpractical.
