The document appears to be a technical report or log related to radar data, possibly from a military or aviation context, dated November 18, 1945. It contains a series of time-stamped entries with numerical data, likely indicating radar readings or telemetry information.

This document is a transcription of communications regarding the Japan Airlines Flight 1628 incident on November 18, 1986, where the flight reported unidentified traffic during its flight near Alaska.

This memorandum from the FAA discusses the radar analysis related to JAL flight 1628, specifically addressing the phenomenon of 'split images' observed during the flight on November 17, 1986.

This document details an interview conducted with the flight crew of Japan Air Lines flight 1628 regarding their sighting of unidentified aerial phenomena while en route to Tokyo via Anchorage, Alaska. The interviews were held by FAA officials in response to the reported sighting.

…dings, likely related to aircraft tracking. The data includes various parameters such as altitude, heading, speed, and other metrics that are typically used in aviation and radar operations.

On January 29, 1987, the crew of Alaska Airlines flight #53 reported an unidentified object on their weather radar while flying at 35,000 feet. Despite checking with air traffic control and the USAF, no other aircraft were identified in the vicinity.

This document contains radar data and communications related to Japan Airlines Flight 1628, which experienced unidentified aerial phenomena during its flight on November 17, 1986. The data includes uncorrelated radar returns and pilot communications indicating sightings of a UFO.

The document appears to be a fragmented record from the National Archives, possibly related to military or aviation operations. It contains references to various codes, dates, and operational terms, but lacks coherent context due to its incomplete nature.

This document is a transcription of recorded conversations related to an incident involving Alaska Airlines Flight 53 on January 30, 1987. The transcription covers communications between the Anchorage Air Route Traffic Control Center and the flight crew.

This document details a UFO sighting reported by Japan Air Lines Flight 1628, where the crew observed two unidentified flying objects that exhibited unusual flight patterns and characteristics, leading to significant media attention and speculation.

On January 29, 1987, the crew of Alaska Airlines flight #53 reported an unidentified target on their weather radar while flying at 35,000 feet. Despite checking with air traffic control and the USAF, no other aircraft were identified in the area.

The document discusses inquiries into UFO sightings, particularly focusing on the work of Richard Haines, a scientist at NASA, who investigates pilot sightings. Haines has documented numerous unexplained cases, including a notable sighting by Captain Terauchi. The document also mentions skepticism from Philip Klass, who proposes that the sightings could be e…

This document is a memorandum from the FAA Alaskan Region detailing media inquiries and responses related to a UFO sighting by a Japan Airlines captain in November 1986. It highlights the extensive media engagement and the preparation for a press conference to address public interest.

This document provides a detailed analysis of the radar data associated with Japan Airlines flight 1628, which reported an unidentified flying object (UFO) during its flight over Alaska on November 17, 1986. The analysis focuses on the phenomenon of uncorrelated radar signals and the normalcy of the radar returns observed during the incident.

This document details the chronological summary of alleged aircraft sightings by Japan Airlines Flight 1628 on November 18, 1986, including interactions with air traffic control and military radar.

This document discusses the radar data analysis related to Japan Airlines flight 1628, which reported an unidentified flying object (UFO) on November 17, 1986. The FAA's review of radar data indicated the presence of 'uncorrelated primary and beacon targets,' which are not uncommon and can occur due to timing discrepancies in radar systems.

This document details an interview conducted with the flight crew of Japan Air Lines flight 1628 regarding their encounter with unidentified aerial phenomena while flying over Alaska on November 17, 1986.

This document discusses UFO sightings reported by pilots, particularly focusing on a notable incident involving a Japan Air Lines cargo jet. NASA scientist Richard Haines has tracked over 3,000 pilot-reported UFO sightings, categorizing them into two main types: objects that appear and disappear rapidly, and those that follow aircraft for extended periods. T…

The FAA has reopened its investigation into unidentified flying objects (UFOs) reported by a Japan Air Lines crew over Alaska on November 17, 1986. The inquiry aims to identify an unknown object that appeared on radar and was seen by the crew, which was initially dismissed as 'random clutter.'

A Japan Air Lines pilot, Capt. Kenjyu Terauchi, reported seeing unidentified lights in the sky while flying over Alaska. The lights did not appear on military or FAA radar, and the incident is under investigation.
