Great free Ebook released on the 13th anniversary of the NICAP web site which goes into quite considerable detail about specific UFO cases and aspects of the phenomenon like physical trace evidence, electromagnetic interference effects and highly dubious USAF explanations.

THE CHALLENGE OF UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS

PRESENTED IN A SERIES OF SEPARATE ARTICLES BY

Charles A. Maney, Board Member

And

Richard Hall, Secretary

Accounts of phenomena popularly referred to as "flying saucers,” more dignifiedly labeled "unidentified flying objects" or UFOs, continue to persist in the world news. The reports of these strange phenomena of the skies have been attracting public attention for thirteen years and there is apparently no let-up in sight. Although within a given region on earth long lulls between sightings have been noted, during such local lulls, other parts of the world have witnessed extra concentrations of sightings.

Table of Contents

Excerpt from Appendix E - Electromagnetic effects:

Since 1947 similar E-M effects have occurred in the presence of UFOs in at least the following countries: France, England, Italy, Norway, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Venezuela, Canada, and Australia. Also in the new states of Hawaii and Alaska. The implication of these reports is that, whatever UFOs may be, they appear to affect electrical circuits under certain conditions. There is no absolute proof, but the repeated association of this effect with plainly visible unidentifiable aerial objects can leave little doubt that it is valid to say the UFOs caused the effects. Any other interpretation would imply a chain of coincidences of such magnitude that it would be more incredible than accepting the fact of car-stalling UFOs.

Also, for anyone that hasn't looked through them and is actively interested in the subject, the 'NICAP Chronologies' section is well worth a look and documents some very bizarre and unexplained UFO incidents.

Cheers.

Orkojoker happy reading mate, it realy is quite a good book and contains a great deal of information about some of the more perplexing cases - the Red Bluff incident is a good example:

During a six-day period, August 13-18, UFOs were sighted from 18 California cities and towns by over 30 witnesses including at least 14 police officers. One of the most important cases in this series occurred on August 13. The UFO was first sighted at 11:50 p.m. (Pacific Daylight Time). Officers Charles A. Carson and Stanley Scott had been looking for a speeding motorcycle in the vicinity of Red Bluff when they noticed an object low in the sky directly ahead of them..

It also states here that the incident was considered by many UFO groups to be one of the most significant UFO sightings so it's too bad no-one seems to want to touch the thread with a ten foot bargepole.
