The Raf West Freugh Incident (1957)

The RAF West Freugh Incident occurred on May 4, 1957, near the Royal Air Force (RAF) West Freugh base in Scotland. The incident involved multiple reports of a large, disc-shaped object that emitted a humming noise, and was witnessed by both military personnel and civilians in the area.

According to reports, the object was first seen by a group of young girls playing in a field near the base, who described it as a “big, round, silver thing.” The object was also seen by several personnel at the base, including a flight lieutenant who described it as a “huge, silver disc.” The object was said to be hovering silently in the air, emitting a low humming noise.

The object was also tracked on radar by military personnel at the base, who reported that it appeared to be moving at a high rate of speed, and could make sudden changes in direction. The object was also reported to be larger than any known aircraft, and had a shape that was unlike anything in the military’s inventory.

While the incident has never been fully explained, it remains one of the most well-known UFO sightings reported by military personnel in the United Kingdom. The incident has been the subject of much speculation and debate within the UFO community, with some suggesting that the object was extraterrestrial in origin, while others have suggested that it may have been some form of experimental military aircraft.

There have been several books and documentaries produced on the subject of the RAF West Freugh Incident, including “Above Top Secret” by Timothy Good, which explores the broader context of UFO sightings and government cover-ups. Other books and documentaries have focused specifically on the RAF West Freugh Incident, and have cited it as one of the most significant UFO sightings reported by military personnel.

Sources claim that the UFO was shot down by military aircraft, and that the wreckage was recovered by the military.
