Before you cue the X-Files music, ask yourself: If the O'Hare UFO sightings happened on November 7, why are we just now hearing about it?
When it comes to coverage by the national media, UFOs (or Unidentified Flying Objects), generally speaking at least, are not a story topping the agenda of your more credible news organizations. In fact, when it comes to such stories, the unwritten rule has always seemed to be that such reporting is best left to the supermarket tabloids.…

Jet #152, "...naked guys with UFOs in them..."?? I would have expected maybe "UFOs with naked guys in them".
Just kidding, just kidding; I know that quotation is snipped out of context.

Interesting article, this. I can well understand anybody in positions involving publicity being reluctant to comment on UFOs or any similar subjects (such as purported ghosts or unknown fauna like Bigfoot); it obviously takes quite a bit to goad them into finally saying something on record. And it IS a salient question, why the government and/or its reps spend so much time denying things that have been caught on tape or witnessed by far too many credible people. If anything, that seems self-defeating to me.
Jet - ignore BD; some people are just assholes, as you are well aware with JOM. Hope you're feeling OK, BTW. How are your eyes doing? Are the new meds helping any? In any event, don't worry about the MPs showing up on your doorstep over unauthorized showing of military photos; Dick Cheney & Dubya have already doubtless been into your mail on the grounds you're a dangerous subversive, as they have mine, & we're both on the NSA 'To Slip On A Bar Of Soap' list I have no doubt.
Pretty sneaky of you to put those photos on this site just to push your anti-christian, anti-american, gay/lesbian agenda, btw. Who'da thunk you subversive gays could be that innovative with some photos?

Glen. When I lived with the Hoppa they told a tail about a creature called Aohmaha. Being close to Missouri they spoke of Momo, the creature of the forest and woodlands. Was told they came from the sky and they would take me into a part of forest where Momo and Aohmaha dwelled. The Momo females although very hairy I found attractive. Shorter then the males and less stinkey I understood their language. Thats when I met Mamasema. We married with the bigfoot tradition of the Momo,s throwing rocks. We now have many children and grandchildren. In 2009 a spacecraft will take us to Imofolic. Have not clue where thats at, however Ive been told it looks like a trailer park and Elvis lives their. Will try to comment at a later date.

Jet. Interesting comment from #182. What say you sir.

I seem to remember a whole group of people that killed themselves because they were convinced that a comet was bring a spacecraft to take them to the stars. That's my reaction.
Did you see the new photos sr?

Glen, I found another set of 4 UFO images as I comb through his private collection. They're very old and when I tried to enhance them so they could be seen better it only made it worse so I settled for simply circling them.
Its a group of 5 "Clouds" that danced around each other and it appears to be from the early 1900s

Interesting and entertaining thread - I found it through Google while looking into the Chicago UFO sightings.
However, the talk here of the UFO pictures is asinine, really. I don't know this Jet character, and I suspect none of you do, either. His claims that he doesn't want to post them seem to simply be to increase interest (I'd guess). The photos are too small and too grainy to tell much more than "there's a grainy saucer" there. The description which acompanies many of them is improbable and contrived (for instance, the same plane from the same exact angle, same cloud cover - but different shadow and different crew).
I should also note that most of the images look of similar quality as his other (admitted) photoshop job on the blimp. The saucers, while potentially real in the photos, could have been digitally manipulated by a fairly rank amateur (such as myself) to the available level of quality (ie just barely high enough quality to be distinguishable as saucers).
...
BACK ON TOPIC: I should note that I mostly agree with the original poster (ie Glen). I've never seen anything myself, but I've got credible friends who are very 'no nonsense' who claim to have seen UFOs. I've seen all the videos and
I think it could be any number of things, but my opinion and guess as to what they are is this: some are ET (mainly the 'military' ones that we civies only hear rumours about), some (the majority seen by civilians) are the result of terrestrial 'black' projects. The black projects are the culmination of 60+ years of secret experimentation in saucer-shaped craft dating back to Nazi Germany (google for 'nazi ufo facility' and search around): they had a large underground facility with a circular pillar launch pad/dock of some sort up in the mountains; the scientists who survived the facility (which supposedly caused odd sickness and death in many of the workers) largely came to work for the United States.
Interesting that it seems like the design of the saucer photos found - the legit ones that were not manipulated and were determined to not be hoaxes, as best as experts could tell - progressed over the years from something which now looks 'cheesy' to something which looks quite modern by today's standards. Also interesting how the saucers of the bygone eras could be detected - even if only for a moment - on radar, but the ones seen today can not be (or, at least, they can only be detected seemingly at the whim of the pilot) and the ones today can't.

Thank you posting Mr. Caimlas. And I have to agree, this thread has taken both some interesting and some entertaining turns since I first posted this article last week. Anyway, I found your comments most "interesting", so maybe things will start to move back in that direction.
Since you more or less asked about who "Jet" is, he is a regular contributor here to the site, and (in my experience anyway at least) a generally very sincere and nice sort of chap.
Which leads me to believe that he wouldn't do anything like try to fake his photos. Because he then knows that I of course would have to kill him (easy Mr. Jet, I'm just kidding).
So I take him at his word when he relates how he more or less "happened" across these --
As I've already stated though (and actually as Jet more or less reiterates in his site's disclaimer), we really don't know what these represent, where they really come from, or what they are. So if you choose to follow Jet's link (which it sounds like you already did), you'll just have to be judge of that yourself.
Anyway thanks again for chiming Mr. Caimlas. And welcome to BC's own loony bin...

Caimlas #195: The description which acompanies many of them is improbable and contrived (for instance, the same plane from the same exact angle, same cloud cover - but different shadow and different crew).
I think the particular description points to the other set of plane photos (to the ones that have been taken from the front of the plane). It might help, if the texts and the photos were grouped together more clearly...
198 - Jet in Columbus
Caimlas I'm so glad you enjoyed Glen's article.
Apparently you read everything about my UFO photos except the first paragraph... Good for you!
I've rearranged the captions so they're a little more understandable. They were culled from the notes that accompanied each photo.
I could enhance, correct and make each one look more realistic, but then they would be faked. I could write my own captions to be more sensible, but then they'd be fake too.
They were presented as a find from an unknown source on a computer that used to be owned by a retired air force officer.
they are what they are.
As for faking anything, that'd make Glen's great article here have less credibility, and I won't allow that.
Judge the artile above and my presented photos separately.
If you want crystal clear images, I suggest you watch any science fiction TV show or log onto the web. I can create them for you, but there are already so many.
Jet
199 - Jet in Columbus
Glen, thank you for your words. What do they say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions?
I've found a few more images, but I'll hold off until I can find a few that are "crystal clear" for you.
The images were never meant to distract from your article they were meant to augment them. That is the one and only reason I posted them.
But of course you know that.

John I've moved the captions to beneath the photos. I'd originally text wrapped them around them but too many people e-mailed to tell me that it didn't work on their little monitors at 800x600 so I moved them incorrectly to above instead of below each image.
I've got a 20" monitor so it's presented a little differently.
thanks for your words.
The images are what they are.
Like I've stated before, why would I provide the negatives along with the images if I were faking something?

Hey i have a picture of a UFO i sent to two new channels two days ago. I have heard nothing from them.
What i will tell you is the camera that took the picture is a Federal one placed in Yosemite vally to take a live picture every hour. Thsi time the UFO was ibn the way and THEY "dont save the pictures" but i did.
This will be the most popular "REAL" UFo picture ever!!

I WAS A FIELD INVESTIGATOR FOR MUFON FOR MANY YEARS. I NOW DO THE RESEARCH ON MY OWN. MOST OF MY TIME AS AN INVESTIGATOR WAS WEEDING OUT THE WACKO'S AND HOAXERS. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY CASES THAT APPEARED TO BE VERY REAL FROM CREDITABLE EYEWITTNESSES.
I HAVE SEEN 3 SIGHTINGS OVER THE PAST 15 YEARS THAT I KNOW WERE NOT CONVENTIONAL AIRCRAFT.
MY LAST SIGHTING WAS IN 2000 WHERE I FLASHED A HIGH POWERED FLASH LIGHT AT 2 UFO'S THAT WERE VERY CLOSE AND STATIONARY. I FLASHED A SERIES OF THE SOS CODE, 3 DOTS 3 DASHES AND 3 DOTS.
ON THE FIFTH ATTEMPT I RECIEVED A REPSONSE OF 3 BRIGHT FLASHES FROM ONE THE OBJECTS. THEY BOTH SHOT STRAIGHT UP AND OUT OF SITE.
MY HAIR WAS STANDING UP ON MY NECK. I CAN ACTUAL SAY I HAD SOME KIND OF COMMUNICATION WITH WHAT EVER THESE THINGS WERE. MAYBE ALIEN OR MAYBE NOT.
IF THEY ARE OUR STUFF, THEN I GOTTA GET ONE WHEN THEY ARE AVAILABLE...

Hello all,
After searching for the " chicago UFO sightings" I came across this article and tread. (which seems to have expired) I found the article informative and well written. THanx Glen.
As for the actual November 7th sighting, I found it interesting that the craft shot upward leaving a " hole in the sky". If this is true, the craft was traveling as mass. I bring this up because in order to travel trough space/time I think ( this is me here) that it would be necissary to travel as energy, such as light. When light passes through a cloud it doesn't leave a hole does it?
Really the question is how do these UFO's fly. Even it they do travel through space as non-matter, they must change into real matter as we see them.Anybody?
PS wish I could have seen those photos!

Prior to my alien abduction from the trailer park I always wondered what the propulsion method was used by alien spacecraft. They told me about the flux capacitor and dilithium crystals putting them into position for M2P2 flight. Believe it or not, Elvis was the pilot. As we ascended to planet Melbatoast I felt A whole lotta shakin goin on. The women on board were beautiful and looked like Anna Nicole Smith. This is a true story.

I USED TO BE A NON-BELIEVER TOO. UNTIL I SAW ONE AND STARTED DOING THE RESEARCH. DON'T BE TOO QUICK TO DEBUNK THE POSSIBILTY. DO SOME RESEARCH.

Forget for a moment if UFO's are real, let's look at the recent explanations for recent sightings. The one I love most is a Russian test missle entering earths atmosphere over the Mid-West. Now gee guy and gals if a Russian test missle was seen over parts of the Mid-West wouldn't our fabulous leader being sending troops over there? Janet

It was not a missle,it was an old satellite that fell back to earth and burned.

i don't know what the hell a url is but I live in chicago and i have a back deck where i was sitting one night with my girlfriend. I told her my friend who use to work for the airlines said I had great airplaine watching from this deck and she laughed. I said to her I guess people really like to watch airplanes fly into O'hare. I never understood that and thought it was funny. Than I see this probe. a circle like object illuminated fly up into the sky. I looked at here and said well now, what is that, my goodness. She said to me, it's probally a balloon. But when do balloon's illuminate at night and fly as high or higher than airplains in circular form and go up and move to the east? So i just recently found out about this ohare thing and it makes sence to my observance now!!!! I have proof that I made this observance before this story even broke and now it reconfirms my own personal observance.

Well, I'm a day late and a dollar short! (ie: very late in finding this article!)
I did a news Google search on UFO's tonight and because of Eriekat's latest post it brought me to this outstanding article Glen wrote. I was able to read more about the O'Hare Sighting - the sighting many now believe has been "swept under the rug".
Kudos to you Glen for writing a terrific article. I only wish I had come on board sooner to comment on it. Here we are, now over a year later and still nothing more on the O'Hare Sighting other than the very thorough detailed NARCAP report.
Something was obviously seen, but "someone" or many are holding back the authentic videos and/or pics of this incident for whatever reason. I suspect the government is in on this along in bed with the mainstream Media of course. After all, they FEED the "sheeple" to you know, lead us in to a war based on false pretenses and such.. (sorry for the rambling)
We've seen a few things over my way here in Oregon. I've tried to tape a few of them, and I constantly struggle to "rationalize" what I've seen: Are these "OURS" (wouldn't surprise me with the current Admin in the White House) or are they from "elsewhere out there" or BOTH?
Jet, I would have loved to see your pics. I often try to find if there's something similar out there that look like what I've seen.
Anyway, I hope we find out the truth about the O'Hare sighting. Obviously SOMETHING was seen Nov 7 2006. The O'Hare sighting will be another "Roswell" or "Phoenix Lights" event that will be remembered (while some hope we forget) but we'll never know what really took place.
221 - Jim Filippi
I recently spoke and interviewed David Adair. Although many people don't believe his story, I think there just may be some truth (if not all of it) to his event at Area 51 in the 70's.
One must keep an open mind and do the research...then make a decision on what you think is the truth.
