    The next day, the Air Force officers took Hoyt, his sister and nephew
    to Hawthorne Municpal Airport, where they flew them to a command post
    a few miles from the crash site, he says. The visitors were treated
    to lunch, then driven back up the mountain road where Hoyt said he
    saw the crash.

    "They wanted to know what the angle was when it came down," he said.
    "They used some tool to measure something after we pointed at the
    spot."

    After developing the film in Hoyt's camera, he says, the Air Force
    returned two sets of enlarged prints of the family camping trip -
    minus the frames that could have shown the descending aircraft.

    An Air Force officer who interviewed Hoyt and his relatives asked
    them not to talk to anyone about what they saw, "but said he couldn't
    force me," he said.

    The Air Force will confirm only that a plane crashed, killing its
    pilot. It refuses to divulge what kind of aircraft, the base from
    which it took off or its mission.

    Military guards armed with M-16 rifles have sealed off a large area
    around the crash site.

    Back home in Redondo Beach, Hoyt says he feels a bit bewildered by
    all the attention his claims have brought.

    Grandview residents were among several people who reported seeing
    unidentified flying objects on Thursday morning and Sunday evening.

    On Thursday, a Wapato policeman was the first to spot a UFO, about
    4 a.m. The object travelled slowly, and was last seen near Prosser
    about 6 a.m. It was described as large and changed colors. Although
    small in the night sky, it was larger than a star or planet.

    An object brighter than a planet was spotted over the Rattlesnake Hills,
    north of Grandview, on Sunday evening about 10:30 p.m. It changed
    colors rapidly. A witness described it as alternating red and green,
    and a ray of light seemed to be coming out the bottom.

    RAAF has no plans to seek car-sized UFO

    An unidentified flying object much bigger then a family car" is lying
    at the bottom of Encounter Bay Victor Harbor, after plummeting to
    earth soon after midday on Saturday.

    The object, unofficially logged as a meteorite by the RAAF base at
    Edinburgh, was seen by dozens of people from as far south as post
    MacDonnell in the South-East and south-Western Victoria.

    Senior Constable G.A. Clemow, of Beachport, said he and several other
    Beachport people had seen a large, smoke-colored vapor trail left by
    the object as it speed past at cloud height.

    The trail had taken more then five minutes to begin dispersing. Sen
    Const Clemow said a thornleigh farmer Mr.Neil Sutherland, had told
    him the object looked like a rocket, with a propeller-like device
    at the rear, fins and a fair bit of red paint.

    Mr.Sutherland had described the fast-moving tube as much bigger then
    a family car.

    Beachport resident Mr Gary Chambers said he had seen the object for
    only a few seconds as it came down. It looked like a falling star,
    but in broad daylight, Mr Chambers said it was very high up I thought
    it burned up above the horizon.

    Mr George Thorn, of Victor Harbor said his wife had seen the object
    falling towards the sea. Moments later, though binoculars, he had
    seen what he thought at the time to be a very large red and white
    boat bobbing up and down in the heavy swell, about five kilometres
    offshore. It had sunk monents later and three boats found nothing.

    Police and RAAF Officials said they knew of no plans to look for the
    object, lying in at least 20 fathoms of water. A department spokesman
    in Adelaide said no RAAF Hercules had reported anything and there
    was no sighting on any radar screens. He said the department would
    investigate but he knew only what had been reported. He said he was
    curious about a witness who described the object as looking like a
    "cruise missile."

    What does a cruise missile look like? I work in defence I've never
    seen one, he said as for the chance that the object was an extraerrestrial
    that not show up on radar, the spokesman said with a chuckle: "There's
    a possibility it could be anything, if in fact there is something,
    but at the moment we know nothing."
