AIR INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION REPORT: Unidentified Flying Object (FLYOPRPT)

This intelligence report details an Unidentified Flying Object sighting reported on May 2, 1953, by the pilot of a Maritime Central Airways aircraft. The pilot, identified as Warden, reported observing two luminous, moon-shaped objects while flying 130 miles southwest of Goose Air Base in Labrador. According to the report, the objects appeared 500 feet off the starboard wing of the aircraft, remained alongside for approximately three to four seconds, and then departed rapidly at high speed. The visibility at the time of the sighting was described as unlimited, and there was no radar contact recorded. The report includes statements from military personnel, including Second Lieutenant H. L. Brown of the 107th ACW Squadron, who received the report via landline telephone from the tower. Additional context provided by First Lieutenant K. R. Meath and Captain R. L. Embery indicates that the incident was investigated by the 107th ACW Squadron and the 59th Fighter Interceptor Squadron. The preparing officer, Captain Nathan J. Meyerson, concluded that there was insufficient data to provide a concrete evaluation of the incident. He suggested that the sighting might be attributed to meteorological phenomena or physical aberrations, such as reflections from the aircraft. The document was intended for the Air Technical Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base for further interest. The report is marked as unclassified and includes instructions for periodic downgrading and eventual declassification.
