Texas UFO Sightings Identified as Air Force Fighter Jets

Atlanta, Ga. 1/24/2008 11:25:40 PM

Residents of Stephenville, Texas don’t seem convinced but the United States Air Force has claimed that they are responsible for the bright lights that appeared in the sky earlier this month, not a UFO.

 

On the night of Jan. 8 several people in the small town claimed they saw a UFO, detailing a flying object that was about a mile long and changed colors.

 

Now the U.S. Air Force has claimed that what residents saw was part of a training program that involved ten F-16s. That explanation is a shift from what Maj. Karl Lewis originally offered two weeks ago when he speculated that residents likely saw an illusion caused by two commercial airplanes and the reflection of the sun.

 

For those in Stephenville, that explanation isn’t flying. According to Steve Allen, a pilot and freight company owner, “I guarantee that what we saw was not a civilian aircraft.”
