Black Triangle Craft Spotted

Dear Gentlemen,

About 5 years ago on a very cold moonless winter morning at approximately 3:00 a.m. my car pool buddy and I were on the way to work at a “remote location”. We were on Mercury Blvd. on the East side of the EAFB dry lake bed. Think Space Shuttle landing strip runway that runs West to East in front of the notorious “South Base” Birk Flight Test Center. We noticed a very large black triangle shaped craft coming off the runway and slowly gaining altitude. We pulled over in time to have it come directly over our heads. It appeared to be quite “thick” almost as though it were a balloon with somewhat puffy panels on its sides. Underneath were very bright lights that reminded me of recessed counter top lighting. Once it passed us it gained altitude VERY RAPIDLY and it blended in with stars above and was no longer visible. It was way cool indeed. We were speechless for a bit and felt very lucky to have seen it. Our thoughts were that the lights somehow adjusted to the star patterns above and also adjusted for altitude for viewing angles. It was completely silent. Obviously we assumed this was a re-con craft because we watched it carefully and lost it not to be found again. We are talking seconds here. It was definitely not an alien craft. After asking around Northrup came up more than once. Who knows? Due to my clearance level, please no contact and if you delete this immediately it would be appreciated.

Thank You

NUFORC UFO Sighting 134135
Occurred: 2004-06-06 23:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2017-05-15 17:38 Pacific
Duration: 1 minute
No of observers: 2

Location: Edwards AFB, CA, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Green orb hovering about 20 feet over the highway.

Summer of 2004 on a highway heading into Edwards Air Force Base with a fellow airman. It was dark, we had just left a movie theater in the city of Lancaster, California. We were having a conversation and as we were heading down the highway toward the main gate I noticed a green light approximately 20 feet above the ground. From a distance my mind made me think it was a stop light. But there was no stop light in that area, this was a long straight section of highway leading to the main gate at Edwards AFB.

As we got closer to this green orb looking object our conversation stopped as we were trying in our minds to explain what we were seeing. But we had no explanation. We only told a few people who just laughed it off.

I've never seen anything like that since then and still in my mind can come up with no explanation for what I saw that night.

Mr. Davenport,
As we discussed today, here is the report that I have written for my Company.

If there is additional information you need, Please contact me via email at ((e-address deleted)).

In your investigation of this incident, it would be good if you would keep my company name out of any public correspondence. They are very sensitive about this sort of thing. (old school, you know)
If for some reason this is unreadable, let me know and I will send it via snail mail.

Thank you,

((PILOT'S REPORT APPEARS BELOW))

EVENT REPORT

Crewmembers: Capt. ((name and pilot # deleted))
F/O ((name of first officer deleted))

Date/Time: April 07, 1998 0445-0500UTC

Principals involved: ((company designator deleted)) Flight ((flight # deleted))

Joshua Approach, Freq. 127.5 Mhz

Raider 77 (a military aircraft)

Aircraft: Boeing ((type a/c and serial # deleted))
Altitude: flight level 330

Aircraft Speed: .770 -.760 Mach, ground speed 490 kts

Location: J110 between MITEL and FURNY intersections

Flight Conditions: Night VMC with 50 miles visibility. Some cumulus clouds at lower altitudes. Snow on the Sierra mountains was illuminated by the ambient light.

At approximately 0445Z Joshua Approach requested Raider 77 to turn to a heading of 150 degrees to investigate unidentified aircraft maneuvering close to airway J110.

Since Raider 77 was transmitting on UHF, we could only hear radio transmissions from Joshua.

We perceived from the Joshua transmissions that the unidentified traffic was following a ((Boeing-built a/c--type deleted)).

Shortly, we were given traffic advisories for two targets at our 3 o'clock position and 8 miles and
moving at a rate equal to three times our speed. The next report was at 2 o'clock and 8 miles.

At nearly the same time another target was reported at our 11 o'clock position and less than 2 miles. These reports were followed with the advisory, "traffic no factor".

We were then switched to Los Angeles Center. LA Center informed us that Joshua had told
them of the incident, and we had no observed traffic in our area.

At no time did we make visual contact with the reported traffic. Apparently, Raider 77 did not
see the traffic visually, but they did have them in radar contact. Joshua stated that the targets
were primary and did not return a transponder or IFF code.

Flight ((flight # deleted)) continued the flight to Las Vegas without further incident.

Note: If Raider 77 had the on-board technology to identify our aircraft by its radar signature,
why was he unable to identify the other targets?

The above is a true and correct account of the events that occurred on ((flight # deleted)) on the
evening of April 07, 1998.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 40937
Occurred: 1982-01-06 17:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2004-12-04 06:47 Pacific
Duration: aprox 5 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Edwards AFB, CA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

Late afternoon/early evening, series of 3 lights, equally spaced, descending, disappear/reappear Edwards AFB area.

While at Edwards AFB, while on 'line standby' duty waiting for the last aircraft to come back to the base, my fellow crash rescue fireman partner and I observed a series of lights descending from a somewhat high angle upper left to lower right. Thinking their was some type of aircraft activity or military flares off in the distance from another military installation, we contacted by radio the airbase control tower. They advised nothing was there. My partner and I looked at each other baffled, as we continued to watch this 'light show' for approx 5 to 10 mins out of our vantage point in the crash rig. It was as if these white lights were on an escalator, 3 at a time, same distance of seperation, but as one would disappear at the lower right another would reappear upper left.

To this day I am baffled and have only said this to a few people. When the control tower said they had nothing on the radar screen, that was quite baffling.
