DIGEST
Mr. Maccabee called requesting the status of available materials from the JAL 1628 |
UFO flight, Nov. 17, 1987. I told him about the order form just finished, and he |
said send him one. He also asked specific questions about the more expensive
items, and if the U.S.Navy would have to pay. I suggested he wait for the list. |
**xx*X He also informed me that he " and several other people had been invited
by Mr. John Callahan (AAT-63/FAA:D.C.) to see the (UFO AirTraffic) material."
This occured, he thought in late Jan or early Feb. He said the material was
"thick, contained the transcript, color photos of the radar screen, interview of
controller s at
Captain Terauchi,/somé maps an fier material." He also said that Mr. Callahan
told him about the C130 (SAC Military flight) and the Alaska Airlines sighting of
unidentified air traffic.
