Some of My Top Picks of UFO Cases from the 1990s

1. 1991-Russian Crash & Retrieval

In 1991, a large elongated UFO invades Russian airspace. After evading Russian MIGs, the object crashes into the mountains near the China Border. Several expeditions are carried out to find the mysterious craft. See the details here

2. 1992-UFO Crashes into South Haven

An alien space craft crashed into a remote area of Southaven Park in Shirley just before Thanksgiving, 1992. The incident happened just after 7:00 P.M. on the night of November 24, according to John Ford, chairman of the Long Island U.F.O. Network, who said that it has taken his group six months to do a thorough investigation.

3. 1995-American West Airline 564 UFO

A cigar-shaped object with a row of brightly flashing lights along its length was observed over the Texas panhandle by the crew of a westward bound America West B-757 airliner on May 25, 1995. The case was thoroughly investigated by Walter N. Webb on behalf of the UFO Research Coalition, who interviewed the crew and air traffic controllers. Webb also obtained a copy of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) voice tapes of conversations between airplane and ground during the sighting.

4. 1997-The Phoenix Lights

Like a scene from a Sci-Fi movie, a huge, circular object slowly moved over the city of Phoenix and surrounding areas. Numerous photographs, and an abundance of video film make this one of the best documented cases in UFO history. Numerous eye witness accounts recount a large, slow moving triangular shaped UFO.
