was clear with visibility unlimited. Unsuccessful interception was
attempted by two B-26s, one B-17 and one PBM.
The preparing officer knowns of no object which flies at 275 knots per
hour, could remain in the Canal Zone area for nearly six hours,
maneuver from 1,000 through 23,000 feet altitude, make no sound, and
evade interception.
