Title: Ham radio operator hears airline pilot report UFO over Utah
Post by: ChrisSmolinski on April 14, 2016, 0953 UTC

A UFO enthusiast and ham radio hobbyist monitoring airline communications heard a UFO report from a commercial airline pilot to the control tower near Nephi, Utah, according to a new report by the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), a non-profit organization that documents and investigates UFO sightings reports from around the world.

Although the ham radio operator — paranormal radio host Pat Daniels — did not record the communication, MUFON investigators were able to obtain a recorded copy from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

MUFON reports that Daniels was monitoring airlines communications on January 14 when, at about 12:12 a.m., he caught what appeared to be a UFO report from an airline pilot.

According to the website UFOs Northwest, which first reported the case, Daniels claimed he heard a pilot reporting to the air traffic controller that he saw a one-mile-wide bright orange object flying to his right at a lower altitude and apparently keeping pace with his airplane.

The air traffic controller told the pilot that the direction he indicated was towards Nephi in Utah, but insisted that no object was detected on radar.

Daniels promptly reported the details of the communication to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in Utah and the case was investigated by Erica Lukes, the Utah state director for MUFON. She was assisted in the investigations by UFOs Northwest’s William Puckett.

Didn't the same thing happen to Art Bell one New Years Eve many years ago? He cut into his show to put the live audio up. Of course, it may have been something or someone else Art was hearing on his radio?  ;)

I dunno Chris. There hasn't been a peep about this one out George Noory, George Knapp, or the their MUFON man on this one.

If it doesn't pass muster with those three, it can't be bonafide.
