Question: Do Pilots Report UFOs?
Many people believe that UFOs are almost never reported by airplane pilots. Is this a fact?
Answer: This is absolutely a false statement! As a matter of fact, some of the very best UFO reports come from pilots because they have a trained eye as to what goes on in the skies, and must always be aware of the air space around them for the safety of their passengers. There are a number of documented cases of pilots reporting UFOs. Here are some of the very best files.
