The RB-47 UFO Incident
July 17, 1957
Gulf Coast
Francis Ridge:
If we had to list only ten of the very best UFO cases on
record, the
RB-47 UFO incident would be on that list.
Brad Sparks:
4:30-6:40 a.m. (CDT). Electronic Intelligence
(ELINT) RB-47 jet on training mission repeatedly encountered
maneuvering radar-transmitting UFO which correlated with visual of
brilliant white-red light tracked at 10 nautical miles from RB-47 by
Dallas/Duncanville AFS 647th ACWRON air defense FPS-10 radar
(32°38.8' N, 96°54.3' W), with same motions outpacing jet,
simultaneous blink outs on Duncanville radar, ELINT monitors, visually
and on airborne navigation radar. (Sparks in The UFO Encyclopedia, 2nd
ed. 1998, vol. 2) 2 hrs 10 mins
