The Encounter
Graeme Shepard is a retired airline pilot with extensive flying experience. In 1967, he had two radar-confirmed UFO sightings. The first sighting occurred over the Bay of Biscay, where he observed two highly maneuverable crafts for about ten minutes. The second sighting took place near Manchester, where he saw a disc-shaped craft moving at approximately 1,000 mph, which came very close to his aircraft. After these encounters, Shepard felt strongly that UFOs should be publicly discussed. He believes many pilots have similar experiences but face commercial pressure to remain silent. Shepard's encounters changed his perspective on aviation and the existence of unidentified crafts operating in Earth's environment.

“the first in early 67 was over the Bay of Bisque military radar confirmation of two highly maneuverable high accelerating craft which um put on a display for us for about 10 minutes”
The experiencer reflects on the advanced technology observed during the sightings and the implications for humanity.
“what must represent very very advanced technology by species a species unknown that's operating freely in the environment of our planet”
