EXTRAORDINARY DEVELOPMENT ABOUT THE CASE OF UNIDENTIFIED LUMINOUS OBJECTS THAT WAS WITNESSED AND REPORTED BY SEVERAL PILOTS ON
NOVEMBER 1, 2002 IN TURKEY

As we spoke on the phone today, I also spotted those strange objects on the same day like the other pilots flying over Afyon. That day (November 1, 2002) when we were 50 miles away from Afyon, our first officer warned me about a blinding light looming from left and I attempted to disengage autopilot fearing that it might strike us. It took the strange object to fly from one horizon to another about 100 seconds. During its fly-by we had a chance to observe it. We also called the cabin supervisor in to watch.

The object which appeared to be a mass first, when it came in front of us, splitted into units just before it vanished into the horizon to the right. I was so excited that I couldn't take any picture in that moment. But then, I was able to picture the trails they left behind at 10.000 feet.

When it got closer to 12 o'clock, we realized that it's quite unlikely for this thing to be an asteroid. From the reddish colour emerging from it, we thought that it might be an airplane in some state of emergency or even about to crash . When it came to the position 12 o'clock, we saw a mass of red light in front of it, small light formations stretching back behind it and one more blinking light on its rear edge as if it were the beacon of an airplane. This thing was definitely not an airplane or an asteroid. It was something like glowing light formations moving together in a bigger mass of light. When it came to 1-2 o'clock position, the mass of light disappeared and the small bright formations moved away. Then they dissolved casting lights. In 5 minutes we saw the trail the object left behind and were able to take picture of it with a digital camera.

My personal view is that this was certainly not an asteroid. Considering what I've observed in the direction of 12 o'clock I can say that they were unidentified bright objects and formations flying together.

We couldn't grasp what was happening. We asked to the radar station in Ankara if they picked up any signals. They said they had not seen anything on the screen. Sun Express pilots also stated that they had seen UFOs. There was no signal on military radar indicating presence of an unknown object as well. The interesting part of it was that the mass of light vanished suddenly as if it eavesdropped on us.

What was peculiar to the object was that the front side was brighter and bigger, there was a number of light formations on both sides and it extended to the back in cone shape.

Below is how the incident happened in details:
We had completed all preparations and were waiting for the passengers to come on board. When I stepped into the cabin to confirm and make sure that everything had been done for take-off, one of our cabin attendants called and said "Captain could you come over, there's something I like to show you". Our plane stood towards West. When we had a look towards North/Northwest, I saw that bizarre flying object. I couldn't estimate how high it was flying.

It was faster than an airplane but still slower to be a shooting star or asteroid. It was more like a ball of fire leaving trails behind it, flying from West to East. As it was getting out of sight, its glow was phasing out. It then disappeared into the horizon. I observed this object for about 30-40 seconds.

I think it became observable 15-20 seconds before I spotted it. I then learned that some other colleagues had watched the same object and what they saw confirmed my observation.

This is for the information of officials concerned,

I reside in Antalya but, I work for a hotel located in Bodrum Turkbuku as General Manager for the season 2002. My wife and my children reside in Antalya/Manavgat. For that reason, I travel between Bodrum and Manavgat every 2-3 weeks. I set out for Manavgat on November 1st, 2002.

>At 04:59 I took a break for breakfast. Then I took the precipitous Kale road. I was driving very carefully and slowly because I always had problems with traffic control points. When I was driving downhill around a place (I can't remember its name) near Gazeller district, I saw a marvellous shooting star that made an angle of 90 degrees down to the ground. At exactly the same time I watched that magnificent view, I saw a cluster of light moving on my right.

I tried to comprehend what was happening. What I saw was violating the laws of physics.

As an environmentalist, I felt upset supposing that it was an airplane about to crash into the forest. But then, I realized that there was no sound of explosion or smoke of a blast. When I saw the object keeping its position at a certain altitude, I thought it might be an asteroid. But the way it moved was refuting any explanation that crossed my mind. If it were an asteroid it would crash onto the ground with an extreme speed. It kept its altitude violating the laws of nature and then moved away rising slightly from the right. The lights emitting from the object and its passing like it was burning up the sky got me more excited, but I had to keep control of the car and I slowed down. I was driving down the road when the object -whatever it is- disappeared.

I couldn't figure out what it was. Some friends warned me that I might face cynical attitudes. So I kept silent until I heard the news on November 7th, 2002. I got a few newspapers and read the news about the same I object I saw.

I observed the object until it disappeared hovering from right to left. If I were to describe it:

1) There was no sound coming from it. Assuming that I was driving at 1000 meter down the hill, it was above 15-20 degrees from my eye level and 180 degrees parallel to the ground. It moved from the left to the right over me and disappeared rising up into the sky on the right.

2) It was flashing lights. The friction it caused in the air could be easily seen. It appeared to be burning up the air around it. The heat over its center was quite visible. If I were to describe it, it was similar to the heat rising from hot asphalt. It lit up the sky, probably because of the friction. The lights behind it were red-hot color and the interesting part of it was that those ambigious red-hot lines were keeping the same altitude against the law of physics and disappeared in the air. There was no trace of smoke.

3) The outer edges were getting more reddish while there was a clear red center in the cluster right behind the main white center.

4) In front of the object, there was a white circle center that made up only %5 of the whole view of the object. That was not extending like an arrow but it was lying right in front of the object. It was also very bright white.

5) It was rubbing the air pushing it towards back in elliptical shapes.

6) It was flying as tranquil as an eagle but hovering at great speed.

The explanation by an astronomer on the sighting is ridiculous. The astronomer claimed that it was a technologically advanced firework that could rise up to 41 thousand feet or it was an asteroid. How could an asteroid move at 180 degrees parallel to the ground and disappears climbing up in the sky violating the laws of physics. Why doesn't any astronomer or scientist come up and take this case seriously. I assure you there is something we don't know of and scientists are trying to explain it with some rubbish instead of facing the truth.

REPORT 9:

Attention to Mr.Haktan Akdogan and the officials concerned,

- I perceived a line of light speeding down the sky to be a shooting star.
- This light which appeared to be a shooting star first, suspended in the air then changed into a mass of light shining incredibly bright. It was something that I can't even dream of. It got tremendously bigger and started to hover magnificently in the night sky heading the hills. I couldn't take my eyes off it. I was fascinated by the scene.
- I noticed some kind of energy-light motion at the back side of the mass. (It was functioning like the exhaust of a car).
- I could see the circular lights resembling to light bulbs on the object.
- It left traces of smoke like an airplane leaves behind. That trace remained visible until dawn.
- There was another star-like light flying over that mass.
- It disappeared over the hill no:8. Front part of the object was disappearing in an extremely straight way. When the mass got out of sight, I saw strobing lights right over the hills. (it was like you're exposed to light after darkness). Then I observed the red light no:7 again and it also disappeared to the left making circular motions exactly where the mass vanished over the hills before.
- I would say that the incident I observed early in the morning on November 1st, at about 05.30-05.45 (it lasted 3 or 4 minutes) impressed me very much. Now I more frequently ask to myself whether there is an extraterrestrial life out there. If they exist, I'm sure they possess more advanced technology than us.

REPORT 9:

Hasan Huseyin Yavuz, a local imam (prayer leader) in Kutahya-Altintas claims seeing a UFO. Yavuz, imam of the Konak Mosque, stated that when he was going to the mosque for prayer early in the morning, he spotted flashing bright lights in the sky. "I saw luminous objects looking like long minarets. They disappeared into the direction of the city of Usak".

Another witness Ulvi Sarikaya, residing in Altintas, also said he observed the same bright objects. "A little while before the prayer-call we saw a number of objects in the sky. The objects then formed a cluster of yellow light. It was glowing all around. I wouldn't believe if I didn't see it with my own eyes."

THIS EVENT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN EXPLAINED AS AN ORDINARY METEOR SHOWER AS CLAIMED BY SOME GROUPS, BECAUSE :

- Meteors burn up and scatter in mesosphere between 70 and 100 kilometers altitude. But in this incident we are talking about 15-20 objects that were 30-40 m in size and that had reached 40.000 feet. As a rule, such meteors must have hit earth wreaking great havoc.

- Meteors can not fly horizontally and they hit the ground at least at an angle of 45 degrees in comply with the laws of gravity.

- Logically, meteors never have lights pulsating in a regular way like those observed in our case.

WHY IS IT NOT SOYUZ ROCKET ?

- A rocket fragment 2.7 in diameter and 6.7 m long would have burned up and scattered in mesosphere between 70 and 100 kilometers altitude.

- Let's we suppose that it had kept its original size (by miracle) until it reached to 40.000 feet. How can we explain its splitting into 15-20 pieces, each 30-40 m in size and they were still so bright?

- And how did this piece fly horizontally violating the laws of gravity?

- And finally how come another luminous and flashing (in a regular way) object appeared behind it.

THE OUTCOME WE REACHED BASED ON THE TESTIMONIES AND REPORTS BY THE CREWS OF 6 AIRLINERS AND OTHER WITNESSES AND VIDEO FOOTAGE

6 different crews with profound experience on aerial phenomena have stated that these objects were flying independently in horizontal way, were 10-15 in number and as big as a Boeing 747. What's important is that there is no contradiction between the statements of different crews.

Naturally, no meteor can keep its size that big at 40.000 feet altitude in atmosphere. If the objects had passed through the mesosphere without splitting off it would have caused a catastrophe on earth.

No meteor can travel horizontally. If they were ordinary meteors they would have vertical motion at an angle of 45 degrees in comply with the laws of physics and gravity.

As one can see on video footage there is a luminous object up there blinking in a regular way twice a second. This point was also mentioned in the reports of witnesses.

FINAL OUTCOME :

Initially, a huge meteor enters into the atmosphere down to the 45.000 feet and then a UFO with flashing lights getting it under control using some kind of high-frequency energy field and flying it a while horizontally, splitting it into two pieces first and smashing it in final stage, making it completely ineffective before hitting earth.

All this process can be seen on video footage, animations and illustrations . It is also covered in the written reports by the witnesses.

How can we explain that such organizations like NASA and NORAD failed to spot these objects. There may be two reasons for that. Either they covered it up to avoid sparking panic among people or extraterrestrial technology made it invisible using some kind of energy shield. One of these can possibly explain the fact that the objects had not been picked up by any radar.

What's important is that this historical event was witnessed by many credible people, documented and filmed at the same time. The evidence is clear.
