    Obviously they made multiple copies of it - you also contradict yourself by saying "no doubt they did" - and Lindsay has said that he saw the poster of his photo when he visited the office in London. Yep, it says the boss took it down, not that Pope was forced to (Pope says this in all his...

    Pope was forced to take it down? That contradicts everything I've seen him write about it.

    Yeah, you can definitely interpret "the gentleman says not" as "but the guy denied it" - and you wouldn't be wrong in a strictly literal sense - but I would say it puts the wrong connotation on it. Maybe better for our purposes (if we must paraphrase a paraphrase - and I'm not sure that we must)...

    Aside from some wrong words I think there are some things here that make it misleading. Like the "it might not even be him" is Illsley just kind of stammering and I think clearly not the meaning he was intending. Plus the bits that have been omitted from the conversation haven't been indicated...

    Same name was right, it was just the "right age", "quite confident", and "guy denied it" that was wrong, as clarified here:

    Balwyn, Melbourne UFO picture (1966)

    It's a possible but not really an exact match. Probably lots of things it could be. I'm only guessing but i think the reason you got a dislike here is because you're supposed to post your comment from the reddit thread and quote the relevant section from the link. Quote from Mick in the "link...

    How do you know he saw both names? From the incident report: Also, there are plenty of names I've forgotten from 30 years ago - including people I spent time with, didn't just see on a piece of paper. Wouldn't be a shock if he didn't remember it.

    Nope, no promise not to act. As they said in the Q&A video they've contacted over 200 people with or related to that name. Clarke has also said he's not 100% sure it is the photographer's name on the back of the picture (though it makes sense that it is). The guy they're talking about at...

    Not really. They could be dead. They could be enjoying watching people speculate over things. They could be busy and waiting for some upcoming free time. Or they may not have seen the story. Lots of possibilities really.

    Indeed. "Incredible" UFO images are ten a penny these days and I would say it's telling that not one of the tabloids that initially reported it has done any sort of follow up: I don't really see it as that different from all the other UFO stories they post (and of course it hasn't really...

    Claim: Original Calvine UFO Photo

    That's an interesting idea though I see it differently. I mean, it's not like it's a super striking photo that has people scratching their heads and thinking "what the eff is that?" and considering that it could actually be aliens. I think mostly the interest - and it's not like there's that...

    Back then a lot of it was done by post. But I don't think it's out of the question that Pitlochry might have had something, and certainly Perth would have. Though there's always the home development option too. I don't think there is any other way, other than wait and see. They have way more...

    Apparently quite a lot, according to Clarke's accounts (going door to door, putting up posters, offering rewards, talking to people who worked in hotels at the time). And, of course, now that the picture has emerged he has what is presumed to be the photographer's name, as well as having spoken...

    I don't think it's common to all UAP reports. For example, that paper says there are "occasional reports of sound" and there are plenty of cases where the witnesses describe "buzzing", "whining" or "humming" (examples). The reason it struck me as interesting with regard to Calvine was because...

    Don't know about the rest of y'all but I'm not seeing any fog. Nope, alas not. Though I feel fairly confident saying "British Isles".

    I had a look at that and stitched the two parts of the report together, attached. Contains an image of a very funky looking concept craft too: Interestingly, the pages before the paper on black aircraft are titled "Rarity of UAP sounds" (also attached) and talk about how most UAP reports...
