The aliens are in the bed

Sir,

Tony Milligan’s article in Thursday’s edition of the Cyprus Mail (Belief in alien visits to Earth is spiralling out of control – here’s why that’s so dangerous) was interesting but unsurprisingly biased coming from the King’s College, London.

I am a retired airline pilot with forty years at the front end of heavy jet transports. I have seen one UFO. It was reported and documented as such. ‘Unidentified’.

In that career span, one viewing is nothing but I have spoken to countless other direct observers in the same arena – many ex-military pilots. They were subject to non-disclosure orders, some lasting ten years after the event.

Because of the gagging, military pilots are very reluctant to even admit that they saw something.

My own first airline boss had a very disturbing event in Yorkshire. He was even more disturbed by what others would say of him if his story became public knowledge to the point that that he became very aggressive if asked about the matter.

“Zero evidence”? Mr Milligan needs to look outside of his London box and ask who is funding his own college before subscribing to headline grabs.

To paraphrase: the aliens are not under the bed; they are IN the bed – have been with the US Navy for at least the last 50 years. Why else would governments want to keep it all so secret?

Well, I know. Looks like 68 per cent of the population in America alone (as surveyed – really?) also know.
