Hi there,
Let me introduce myself as Wideangle. I am a professional photographer with over 25 years experience based in central London for a notable and worthy
charity. However, my past involved working for 15 years for the now defunct GEC Marconi Electronics group based in Chelmsford, England. With full MOD
clearance, I have seen and photographed some wild things. Especially as we had avionics and military contracts. From photographing Seawolf missile
tests to things very odd indeed. I have always enjoyed conspiracy theories that are based on facts but not those on stupidity. I have been to China
Lake, White Sands and Edwards Airforce bases for both pleasure as well as invitation. Edwards AFB has a fine Museum to those that 'push the
envelope', probably shut now due to security issues. I saw the glorious looking F22 raptor on test on the lake bed several years ago and enjoyed
being completely deafened by a B1 testing her engines.
I have been to Star City the home of the cosmonauts and
My current bent is towards Aurora. My girlfriend is a commercial pilot and regularly has seen it. Stealthy? It appears that it is not quite yet, nor
is it to ground based radars apparently or especially to her forward wind shear radar that picks up its turbulence. She has been buzzed on quite a few
occasions nearing UK and Scottish airspace enroute to from Norway or Sweden and reports it. But the UK Air Ministry always denies it or never reponds.
I know this as I have a friend in the Low Level Flying complaint Dept. They put these sightings down to the gung ho stupidity of some US Airforce
pilots. We have had many crashes in the Scottish highlands in recent years on low flying practice, not always reported to the public, they simply
cannot match the RAF low level without lots more practice.
I keep watching the skies in the evening and wondering are we alone? Why would any intelligent, exploring species, capable of intergalactic travel,
come all this way and then not say hello. . . but then again . . . . .

Well thank you for that tis the first time I have been welcomed to such a site. I have recently given my girlfriend a small Canon Ixus 500 with which
she will try to capture the strange and wacky flying of our US military cousins as well as the beautiful sunrises and sunsets she sees at 30,000 feet.
So hopefully some posts soon to relish and enjoy methinks . .
