Sparks: June 29, 1956; Los Angeles to San Diego, Calif. (BBU) 5:10 p.m. (PST). (McDonald list; FUFOR Index) Dan Wilson: June 29, 1956; Los Angeles to San Diego, Calif. (BBU) At 5:10 p.m. PST, a round, sometimes irregular shaped object was observed high in the sky to the east of the observers. The object was silver-white to rosy in color. Types of observations listed in the report are: Ground-Visual, Air-Visual, Ground-Radar, and Air-Intercept Radar. F3D aircraft tried to intercept the object with no success due to the extreme altitude of the object. The total length of the observation was approximately 2 hours. The radar site at Mt. Luguna (P-76) detected the object at 59,000 feet with no speed. |
