Although officially the incident of 12th February 1954 is a tragic plane crash that resulted in the death of a young pilot, there is plenty of evidence and witness testimony to suggest that the crash was caused by an unknown object – a UFO. And what’s more, if true, the incident would be one more in an apparent small collection of such air force fatalities. Remember, only months earlier in November 1953 was the Kinross Air Force Base incident which would result in the death of two serving US pilots.

Thank you
we like the term ‘ET’ rather than Alien.
Contrary to the articles,the plane was largely intact when I first hiked up Grouse in august 1957.The engine kept going uphill before it came to a stop about 200 ft uphill from the main wreck.A couple of years ago members of the pilots family came up from Utah and built a shrine near the engine ,which is still there.Oddly,the plane parts started disappearing in the 60s and all that remains is the engine.How the plane was removed is a reat mystery ,as it would be nearly impossible to carry the still intact fuselage,wings etc down the rugged mountainside.
How is the Kenneth Arnold sighting “infamous”? On the contrary, I think it is simply famous. I do enjoy your reports and thank you for them.
This is simply an error on my part (it should say famous). We will rectify this.
I think the Kenneth Arnold sighting could be equally considered famous or infamous. Leave it as infamous.
