Fighter jet hits UFO
Metro (UK) ^ | 10 June 2008

Posted on 06/10/2008 12:58:10 PM PDT by Fractal Trader

UFO had a mid-air collision with a fighter jet over central Europe, a leaked report has revealed.

Defence chiefs are investigating claims that the Romanian MIG 21 fighter plane was struck by 'strange objects'.

The official report says the cockpit of the jet was shattered.

Romanian defence ministry officials have ruled out all normal types of collision such as birdstrikes, ice or small meteorites.

Chief investigator Commander Nicolae Grigorie said in the report: 'We can definitely say what this thing was not, but we cannot say what it was.'

The impact on a training flight above Transylvania took only 67 milliseconds and was recorded on an in-flight video camera.

Pilot Marin Mitrica was slightly injured but managed to land the plane safely after the incident last year.

Baffled defence chiefs have now passed the UFO incident on to the Security Committee of European Air Forces for investigation.

My guess is it wasn’t interstellar wormhole traveling space monsters.

Its "normal" for aircraft to hit small meteorites in Romania? Something bad is definitely going on over there!

Seriously, it was probably just a weather balloon.

First, preheat a large oven to 425 degrees.

UFO PING LIST PING.

PLEASE let Las Vegas Dave and I know if you want on or off the list.


Was looking at some newish and new videos of UFO’s on YOUTUBE.

There’s a LOT more stuff there in the last short while. Interesting.

Scroll down to the bottom of the

RELATED VIDEOS list on the right . . .

That one lists 66. There’s more than 2,000 UFO videos on YouTube IIRC.

It continually amazes me that people - even when presented with official documents from foreign military forces continue to act in such a rude manner...

Anyway, this is interesting, for sure. As someone else pointed out above - regardless of what it ends up being, threats to the military in any nation - even Romania - need to be investigated and figured out. Especially in this day and age where terrorism remains a real threat.

I’m no expert, but to shatter a fighter jet cockpit would take something pretty strong, would it not? And, they’ve already ruled out meteorites, birds, ice, etc... all the “usual suspects”.

I do hope the Romanians & Europeans are able to figure out exactly what happened.

Thank God our FBI and JTTF take situations like this somewhat seriously (as in the case of that jet and the supposed ‘model rocket’ episode - and that wasn’t even associated with a “direct hit” or any damage...). Even if they don’t inform us, it’s good to know that they occasionally take these matters more seriously than the majority of people who poke fun on these threads.

Yeah. I much agree with you.

However, times are stressful. I guess these threads serve a function for folks wound up tighter than a drumm with a propensity to unload on the hearest victim that won’t likely cost them much.

And, such humor does fill a kind of release of tension function. Though I think they have no idea how much their ill-will and judgmentalis may well come back with interest dumping a big pile of stinking goo in their laps when they can least afford it.

I used to respect the alphabet agencies a great deal. Now I think he NWO has co-opted all of them. Who knows what the percentage of patriots to traitors is in any of them any more. Except the State Dept has been traitors through and through for many years! LOL.

Thanks for your kind comments. The naysayers can be annoying. But mostly they are just showing themselves to be utterly uninformed and clueless.

Their jaws may well need skateboards for transport when the truth comes slamming down around all of us.

Much appreciate your kind post.

Blessings,

Hmmmmmmm

I’ve been concerned for some time that fondling all those statues might leave someone’s fingers good and garbled.

Tsk tsk. What a pity.

I have to question the malice (beyond the cheese, moose/sister etc.) displayed on ufo and survival threads, that doesn't seem to permeate the self defense and 2A threads, though we do have our perennial contrarians.

For the most part, I'm convinced our government/air force/black ops are involved in some way in the majority of sightings, and some posts are due to the lack of understanding of our engineer's capabilities among the general public (think 50 years ahead), as well as the posts by the obvious provocateurs among those who post on all the above mentioned threads.

I won't believe in grays until one of em asks for a bite of my BBQ. I just can't believe there's mesquite on other planets. It's just one of those ‘earth’ things.

As it goes, I choose to watch and evaluate, as I'm sure many on your ping list do, and the circus will continue. This isn't a popularity contest, nor is it a ‘loudest mouth wins’ type competition.

Ignore the chaff. There are events, there are explanations, there are mysteries.

Thanks for the ping.
