BAe 146 crew see battleship-sized object
1999 ยท en route from Sweden to Humberside, United Kingdom
Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.
What was reported
The crew of a BAe 146 flying from Sweden to Humberside reported an object they estimated to be the size of a battleship. They described it as silver-coloured and pencil-thin, with a row of square windows along its fuselage. Neither the Civil Aviation Authority nor the Ministry of Defence said it was investigating the report, which Hind takes from the British Daily Mail of 27 April 1999 and lists among recent pilot sightings that are worth recording whatever the crews later decide about giving interviews.
What Hind made of it
Noted that neither CAA nor MoD were investigating.
