This document details the communications and actions taken by Japan Airlines Flight 1628 on November 18, 1986, regarding an unidentified traffic sighting. The radar data from Anchorage Center did not confirm the presence of the reported traffic, and no further information was received from civil or military sources.

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 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.

The document discusses a significant UFO sighting involving Japan Airlines Flight 1628, where the pilot reported being tailed by an unidentified object. Despite the FAA's attempts to downplay the incident, the pilot and other witnesses remained convinced of the encounter's authenticity, leading to ongoing public interest and concern about the implications fo…

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 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 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.

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.

This document recounts the experiences of Japan Airlines pilot Kenju Terauchi during a flight over Alaska on November 17, where he observed mysterious lights and objects in the sky, leading him to believe they were extraterrestrial in origin. Despite some speculation that the lights were reflections from ice crystals, Terauchi remains convinced of their othe…

The FAA is forwarding radar tapes and records regarding a UFO sighting reported by Japan Air Lines pilot Kenji Terauchi, who claimed that three lights followed his Boeing 747 cargo jet over Alaska for 55 minutes. Despite radar detection, military officials dismissed the sightings as clutter.

A Japan Airlines pilot's UFO sighting was attributed to the bright visibility of Jupiter and possibly Mars, according to investigator Philip J. Klass. The pilot's claims were contradicted by FAA communications, which indicated he lost sight of the object after a turn. Klass noted that the pilot did not mention the celestial bodies that were clearly visible a…

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 there were notable differences from a previous sighting by the same pilot. Speculation arose that the lights could be a weather phenomenon known as 'bounce light effect.'

A Japan Air Lines 747 cargo plane crew reported seeing strange flashing lights while flying over northern Alaska. The FAA stated they could not explain the lights, and military authorities were unresponsive. The incident lasted about 30 minutes, with the lights following the aircraft for approximately 50 miles.

The FAA reported an incident involving a Japan Air Lines 747 cargo plane that encountered strange flashing lights while flying over northern Alaska. The FAA could not explain the lights, and military authorities were unresponsive. The lights reportedly followed the aircraft for about 50 miles.

This document discusses the phenomenon of UFO sightings reported by pilots, highlighting a specific incident involving a Japan Air Lines cargo jet. It features insights from NASA scientist Richard Haines, who has compiled over 3,000 UFO reports from pilots over the past two decades. The document details the nature of these sightings, including objects that a…

A Japanese pilot reported being shadowed by a large unidentified flying object (UFO) while flying over Alaska. The FAA investigated the incident but could not confirm the object's presence on radar recordings, leading to speculation about its origin.
