- During the last week of July 2005, the time being approximately
19:30 h, the presence of an unidentified flying object was reported toward
the south of Santa Rosa, La Pampa, just as a commercial airliner was making
its final approach to the local airport's runway.
-
- The Airport Control Tower Operator was observing the
approach trajectory of a commercial flight from Buenos Aires when he detected
the presence of a luminous object moving slowly and parallel to the aircraft,
from east to west.
-
- Faced with this circumstance, the tower operator requested
a confirmation of the unknown object's presence from the Flight Plan Operator,
located in the lower level of the control tower building. Both men could
visualize the airliner entering its final approach from a south to north
direction while the luminous object halted its movement, issued a bright
flash of intense blue-white light, re-started its movement, stopped again
to emit another flash, and subsequently vanished before its departure trajectory
could be detected.
-
- This UFO was seen on radial 140 and some 20 degrees over
the horizon, vanishing toward radial 180, and at no point ever being detected
by the airliner's crew.
