Ridge: Nov. 11, 1979; Spanish airspace over Island of Ibiza According to a CUFOS IUR preliminary report in December of 1979, an object was tracked by radar and sighted visually from a Caravelle jet with crew members and some passengers as witnesses. Reportedly observed from the Barcelona tower, 40 people on the ground at the Valencia Airport, including the airport's director. Observed for 21 minutes (pilot Lerdo De Tejada). The IUR prints a sympathetic albeit conservative coverage of this case , while the Anomaly Foundation tries to debunk it. Insufficient data for evaluation.
