Even if the minumum figures are accepted, it is obvious that no US or foreign aircraft could have been mistaken. The largest known bomber, the B36, has a wingspan of 240 feet, and the fastest aircraft, the 81 Bell rocket plane, Douglas 558-2, the XS4 Douglas Rocket plane each have reached the speeds of 1,000 -1,500 mph only for a few seconds, and only 1 model of each is in existence. Their size mentioned so glibly in the newspaper is staggering. To grasp their size, the Queen Elizabeth steamship is 975 feet long, the Empire State building is 1,250 feet high, while these saucerships start at this size and may reach upwards of 2 miles in diameter. One argument raised in the October 1950 issue of Galaxy magazine by rocket authority Willey Ley against the extra-terredial origin of the saucers, is that their 40 foot size is much to small to make any prolonged interplanetary journey. While this statement means almost nothing - we are at present totally ignorant of a half-dozen forces such as gravity, magnetism, radiation pressure and havent the faintest ideas of their potentialities - this report should wrap up this "argument"; small saucers dont need to make such a trip, they could be carried by the hundredsin such a craft as reported here, as a flattop carier carries navy planes. These last 3 formations came in only 9 days before the Venus Inferior Conjunction, and considering their size and large formation, I am inclined to believe a new phase of activity will begin, as previously mentioned, possibly direct communication or prominent landings. #27 Amarillo, Texas; The objects self-luminosity disagrees with an airplanes small and intermittent lights, and observers statement they were faster than any jet plane he had seen tend to back their saucer origin. The formation appears again, but apparently the objects were much smaller as they were watched for a longer time and a definite shape could be made out. #29 Grayling, Michigan; The third "falling airplane". Same comments apply to this as other reports; May have been ejected material, landin saucer, or signal attempt. As it occurred near an air force base, they had a convenient explanation ready, which may or may not have been true, considering their past evasive history. This report nearly in lame latitude as report #8. #30,31,32 Phoenix, Arizona: The most interesting and colorful report, and similar in its antics to the May 22 report over Kansas, where a white small globe chased an airliner. Considering the May 22 report occurred on the Date of Mars Extreme Oppposition behind the sun, and this Sept 7 report occurred 3 days after the Venus Conjunction, I am inclined to think these are a fifth saucer type - a signal saucer communicating their origin by means of flashing lights, colors, and movements. As no helicopters were stated to be flying, no terrestial craft could be able to duplicate its performance. This report in same latitude as Lubbock reports. #33 Sandy Hook, N.J: Another fine report by 2 observers fully capable of identifying weather baloons and meteors. Saucer was of ordinary size, shape, and color, and travelled with the usual great speed, which was so great the saucer apparently did not even bother to race away from the pursuing P80, but merely continued at same speed on its path. This ocurred within hours of the last Phoenix report and there might be some [unclear]
