Commercial Plane Follows UFO over New York State

Commercial Plane Follows UFO over New York State


Date: April 8, 1958
Location: New York, USA

April 8, 1956: A very brilliant light was followed across New York State by an American Airlines plane. The pilots were Capt. Raymond Ryan and First Officer William Neff. The chase was described by radio to Air Force and civilian control tower operators. The following account of the sighting is taken from a tape-recorded interview program, "Meet the Millers," On WBEN TV, Buffalo, New York, April 16, 1956 (tape on file at NICAP). Mr. and Mrs. Miller are the interviewers (Int.); Captain Ryan, F/O Neff, and Bruce Foster (a Bell Aircraft Company engineer) are the guests:



Int: Was that a regular flight of American Airlines?


Ryan: Yes, it was.


Int: From Buffalo to New York?


Ryan: This flight comes out of New York and lands at Albany, Syracuse, Rochester, and terminates in Buffalo.


Int: What was your first idea that anything was happening

-- that you were seeing something?


Neff: This very brilliant white light, like an approaching aircraft with its landing lights on. Naturally we moved away from it thinking that's what it was. Then we noticed it was standing still at the time and we got sort of curious.


Int: Just about what location was this?


Ryan: This was just about over Schenectady. We were coming out of Albany. We took off north and we made a left turn and we noticed this light over Schenectady. It seemed to be standing still.


Int: A light? Now, when you say a light do you mean a light like a light bulb- about that color?


Ryan: Oh yes, very fluorescent--a very bright light.


Int: A big what?


Ryan: A large light. It looked more like a light coming into Albany airport.


MIT: And both of you saw it? At the same time?


Int: How close were you to it, do you think?


Ryan: We turned a little bit to pass to the south of it, and we were probably 2 or 3 miles from it.


Int: And the thing was just standing there?


Ryan: Just about standing; it was off our wingtip.


Int: Was there anyone else on the flight with you?


Ryan: Oh, we had Miss Reynolds, our stewardess was with us.


Int: Did she happen to notice it too?


Ryan: She came up. We called her and she came up and looked at it later on after this had taken off at this terrific speed from where we first noticed it.


Int: How long was it stationary there?


Neff: We couldn't say that it was actually stationary.....(several talking at once) < br />
Ryan: · . . from the time we were off the ground at Albany, until we--it's about 15 miles by air to Schenectady and it was off our wingtip, and we watched it go through a ninety degree arc, go right straight to the west, and it was-- how many seconds does it take to go through a ninety degree arc?


Int: Bruce?


Foster: How fast would you say it appeared to be going? Did it change speed very radically during the time that you saw it?


Ryan: The initial speed l would say probably was 800 to 1000 miles an hour. How fast can it--it's hard to say, just to compute that speed.


Neff: Certainly much faster than another airplane would.


Ryan: Oh much faster, much faster than a jet.


lnt: Faster than a jet?


Ryan: Yes ma 'am.


Neff: Couldn't be a jet, not at that altitude because their fuel is so critical.


Foster: Did it appear to change color at all?


Ryan: Yes it did. It changed color after it got to the west of us, probably 8 to 10 miles. It appeared--the light went out, that's what had Bill and I concerned. It went out momentarily, and we knew there was something up there, and now here we were with a load of passengers with something on our course up ahead, and what are we going to do, so we watched this where the light went out and this orange object came on--this orange light.


Ryan: We looked at one another a little bit amazed, so we decided we'd call Griffiss Air Force Base, and I thought they had the radar on. . . And they didn't have it on- It would taken them 30 minutes to energize the set.


Neff: They asked us to keep it sighted and we did, and we kept calling out our location and as we told them where we were we turned all our lights on. They asked us to turn them off and they could see us, and they asked if this object you see is orange in color. We said it was---


lnt: This is after it turned on I understand


Ryan: Yes. They said "we have a definite silhouette in sight south of the field." Now those fellas are observers who are in the tower. They said that they could see a silhouette.


Neff: Watertown could see it and they're quite a ways north of Griffiss, and Albany saw it--two men in the tower at Albany--one an Air Force man and one a CAA man. And they saw it after we first called them, and noticed--and they looked over to the west and saw it right away.


Int: And when they saw it was it moving?


Neff: Well, we didn't get to talk with them---


Int: But to you it was moving?


Neff: Oh yes.


Int: Real fast?


Ryan: It stayed just that far ahead of us, and they asked us what our point of next intended landing was, and 1 told them Syracuse, and they wanted to be identified--our aircraft, number and serial number, and they said "well abandon that next landing temporarily and maintain the course and your altitude," so we did. They were calling scramble.

Int: When you said ****(garbled), was it low, or was it low for a jet?


Neff: Well, it was low and it was also low for a jet. There happened to be an overcast that evening which eliminated the possibility of a star right off the bat, and ****(gar bled) the way I understand it a jet burns up three or four times the amount of fuel at low altitude than it does at high altitude. 1 don't think a jet could stay down that long with out using up a considerable amount of gas.


Int: How fast were you going?


Ryan: About 250 miles per hour.


Int: ****(garbled) then did they slow down or why didn't **** (garbled)


Ryan: They must have slowed down. "They" or 'it" must have slowed down.


Neff: We trailed out as far as Oswego which is right on the south shore of Lake Ontario and we passed up our point of landing at Syracuse and we weren't sure we should hold the passengers up any longer, and of course we didn't advise them.


Ryan: We called them (Griffiss AFB) and they said they were "about off, "and that was about 8 minutes and we couldn't work them any longer, and we turned over with Syracuse tower, and they were giving--relaying the messages back and forth, and it was then about 10 to 12 minutes and they're still not off yet. And we can't - -I don 'I know, we'd probably still be flying. I just don't know where the jets were. Why didn't they get the jets up?


Int: Well what happened to the object?


Ryan: It went off, it just went to the northwest and it went out of sight.


Foster: Was it more rapid? All of a sudden did it accelerate its speed?


Ryan: It did appear to - -after it got over the water it appeared really get out of sight very fast.


Neff: It did, in the direction of Toronto--in that direction.


Int: Was this object saucer-shaped or not?


Ryan: Oh I don't know; I couldn't say.


Neff: There was no definite shape to it, it was just a brilliant light.
