    Well the Navy above all should be able to identify craft shouldn't they?
    And the Navy has had dealings with "these kinds of things" since the 60s (or even before) so, i would listen to them.
    PS: No one said flying saucer did they?

    I read the official publication of Project Blue Book when it came out in the '60s.

    Blue book was a ruse...created by the powers that be to make people think there WERE flying saucers...not black projects.
    Meant for public and Soviet consumption...head hurt yet?

    Bluebook compiled the investigations of reports of UFO and explained them or marked them "unknown." Not much propaganda value.

    Darwin has made the top five out of almost 400 cities in a worldwide study of air pollution and capital city air quality. The latest AutoTrader global pollution survey ranked Darwin fourth out of almost 400 world capitals for global air cleanliness.

    I saw a blow like that in Namibia. If you've seen Dune II, when Alia walks to the shore it's set in Namibia. Tough country with a line of ships down the beach. South Atlantic don't take prisoners.

    Sounds like the WA (Western Australia) coast: "The mutiny that followed the wreck of the Batavia on Western Australia's coast in 1629 is one of the State's most infamous maritime stories. WA's rugged coastline is littered with more than 1,600 known shipwrecks, including Australia's oldest.
    And thats just the known ones...

    As an aside:
    WW2 Shipwrecks:

    All 75 people on board the vessel evacuated safely as the ship foundered about 1.6 kilometres off the coast of Upolu, Samoa, in October. The ship was one of only nine in New Zealand's navy and was the first the country lost at sea since World War II.

    Never thought of it but the Flying Sub did look like a tailless mantary.
