Mysterious Disappearances part-1
Posted in: no category in shuvo1's Blog
The list of aircraft below represent a wide range of bizarre and mysterious disappearances.  Many have vanished within sight of land, while on radar and while just about to touch down at runways. Others have vanished over shallow water. Some have been in radio communication, saying their equipment was acting erratic, or that a “weird object” was harrassing them.  Sometimes an unusual object was seen in the aftermath of a disappearance. On a few occassions a minor piece of debris was  found—in one case,  containing an unexplained “magnetic particle.” One thing is the same for them all— they vanished without reason.

   The following list is not compiled from “Saturday afternoon mystery magazine” reading or old books. All are based on official documentation, from the NTSB, Coast Guard, Air Force and Navy and many foreign achives. The evidence, gleaned by Gian J. Quasar over the last 13 years,  has led to the first serious book to be published on the subject of the Bermuda Triangle in 25 years.

   

  An example of the disturbing circumstances involved in some of the disappearances can be gleaned from these articles.

   Somewhere Between                           Oddities & Enigmas             Delta Sierra Juliet & Ocho-cero 1978 & 1980 (disappearances compared)

   McGraw-Hill, which usually does not publish in the genre of the “unexplained,” did not hesitate to bring Gian Quasar’s ground breaking book  to a quick publication in Hardcover.  Detailed information about the incidents below can be found in his book, and must be taken seriously.
