Declassified UFO / UAP Document
Compilation of Public Inquiries Regarding Japan Air Lines UFO Sighting
AI-Generated Summary
A collection of public inquiries to the FAA in 1987 requesting documentation on the November 17, 1986, Japan Air Lines UFO sighting. The letters demonstrate public interest in the FAA's release of information regarding the incident.
This document is a compilation of correspondence sent by various members of the public to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) office in Anchorage, Alaska, between February and March 1987. The primary purpose of these letters is to request information, specifically the FAA form or summary regarding a UFO sighting reported by a Japan Air Lines (JAL) flight crew on November 17, 1986. Many correspondents mention reading about the availability of this information in local newspapers or through Associated Press articles. The letters indicate that the FAA was offering a package of materials related to the sighting for $194.30, with individual items available for purchase, and some smaller items provided free of charge. Several correspondents express interest in purchasing specific documents or obtaining a price list for the materials. The document also contains incidental information regarding the L-5 Society and their proposals for space manufacturing, though this appears to be unrelated to the JAL sighting inquiries.
Please send me the FAA form summarizing the UFO sighting by JAL pilot Captain Kenjyu Terauchi.
