|
|
Two pilots reported observing while they were flying over Snoqualamie
|
|
Pass two amber spheres coming their way. The pilots said that they
|
|
were on a collision course with these two objects and went into evasive
|
|
action to avoid the collision. After the pilots had leveled off,
|
|
two objects turned around and started to follow their plane. The
|
|
pilot tried to use his radio and said it was unoperative due to heavy
|
|
static. The pilot described that one object was on one side of the
|
|
wing and one on the other. The objects then accelerated at phenomenal
|
|
speeds heading due west in the direction of Seattle at which time
|
|
the pilot's radio became operative again. The pilot, Shawn Kiaer,
|
|
was accompanied by an instructor.

Saturday evening March 1, 1986 at approximately 8:30 P.M. the CUFON -
|
|
UFO Information Service in Seattle, Washington and the National UFO
|
|
Reporting Center started receiving calls of a UFO sighting in the
|
|
direction of Payne Field. Witnesses said that they had spotted these
|
|
objects while driving on Interstate 5 near the north side of Mountlake
|
|
Terrace. The witnesses described that the objects were large in size,
|
|
although they could only see large lights. When questioned further,
|
|
they said the objects were the size of a quarter at arms length.
|
|
The witnesses said that there were nine objects total. They also said
|
|
that small white and blue objects were dropping out of some of the
|
|
larger objects but did not hit the ground, instead headed for the
|
|
north at fast rates of speed. When asked how many witnesses altogether
|
|
there were, the witness described that he had counted fifteen cars
|
|
pulled off to the side of the freeway observing the UFO's. The total
|
|
duration of the sighting was about 30 minutes. The larger objects
|
|
were then seen heading north also in formation. At exactly 11:00 P.M.
|
|
all three news networks in Seattle, Washington gave their account
|
|
of the sighting. All three had a different story. One explanation
|
|
given was that FAA said that Payne Field was having aerial maneuvers.
|
|
Another station said they called Payne Field and they stated it was
|
|
possibly balloons. The next day after the sighting, CUFON called Payne
|
|
Field and talked with Sargent Tinsley-Army Opera- tions. She checked
|
|
flight records for that evening and said that there were no military
|
|
maneuvers going on at Payne Field at the date and time of the sighting.
|
|
She also stated that most of the time they do not have maneuvers going
|
|
on after 9:00 P.M. because of noise levels. This is a highly residential
|
|
area also.
|
|
|
|
By coincidence there was a head on collision with two small single
|
|
engine aircraft two weeks prior to this sighting. Two witnesses observed
|
|
two planes colliding overhead in the Black Diamond, Washington area.
|
|
The witnesses described the plane exploding in the air on impact then
|
|
watched the small plane head towards the ground. They said the other
|
|
plane then went on its own way. Although the witnesses said there
|
|
were two planes, none of them were able to describe it accurately
|
|
and the plane that departed was never found. Two days later after
|
|
the incident, a helicopter that was leased by photographers for National
|
|
Geographics was found crashed. The photographers were found dead
|
|
in the helicopter near Mount Saint Helens. The reckage was found on
|
|
flat ground with no reasonable explanation according to FAA.
|
|
|
|
CUFON contacted FAA investigator to find out if they had any details
|
|
on both accidents. The FAA investigator told CUFON that the helicopter
|
|
may have had a "whiteout". When asked about the mid air collision
|
|
with the two single engine aircraft, the FAA investigator said he
|
|
didn't believe there was another plane involved. This meant that
|
|
he was disregarding the testimony of the witnesses. As to this date,
|
|
there has been no wreckage found of the second aircraft.
