SUBJECT: ABC JOINS LOCAL UFO SKY WATCH FILE: UFO2040

|
From the Gulf Breeze Sentinel, by Bruce Morrison.

|
|
The Los Angeles based production company, Ohlmeyer Productions, working on
|
|
the ABC special, "America's Best-Kept Secrets," joined a local UFO sky watch on
|
|
Friday night, January 11, 1991, and filmed the frequently-seen "red light" over
|
|
Gulf Breeze.
|
|
The cameraman, Ron Ladd, said, "It was a long distance away illuminating the
|
|
clouds and traveling very slowly to the east. It just appeared from within the
|
|
clouds and after a minute or so it disappeared. I caught it on film. It was
|
|
sometimes very bright and then would fade, maybe because of the clouds."
|
|
An earlier witness Jeff Lawrence said, "What we saw on November 11, 1990
|
|
looked like the UFO that Ed Walters photographed three years ago. I know what
|
|
we saw."
|
|
Eight local area residents were also present during the sighting along with
|
|
the production company's producer, Jeff Androski, and former NASA systems
|
|
specialist Robert Oechsler. Mr. Oechsler was the first to see the glow of the
|
|
UFO as it appeared beneath the clouds.
|
|
Mr. Oechsler is here on assignment from Washington and is an expert in remote
|
|
controlled mechanics and photo analysis. He was equipped with infrared film to
|
|
photograph the unidentified red object and said, "I have tried to consider all
|
|
the options to this Gulf Breeze mystery. I would like to explain it away as a
|
|
military aircraft, balloons, flares, temperature inversions, or hoax, but none
|
|
of these options hold up under scientific study. Balloons don't travel opposite
|
|
the wind, flares don't change color or hover motionless and I can assure you
|
|
that what I saw and filmed over Gulf Breeze was not an airplane of helicopter.
|
|
I have designed some very sophisiticated remote control systems but duplication
|
|
the soundless flight and brightness of this unknown object would be next to
|
|
impossible. I can only say that I don't know what it is."
|
|
The ABC special will air in Februare. One segment will present information
|
|
about the mysterious grass circles in Gulf Breeze Shoreline Park along with the
|
|
unidentified flying red object that dozens of local residents continue to
|
|
photograph.
