MEXICO: AIRLINE MECHANICS REPORT UFOs OVER MEXICO
On Monday, March 27, 2007 approximately 13 airline mechanics (among them UFO researcher Alfonso Salazar) managed to observe, between 8:00 and 8:40 a.m., the maneuvers of an unidentified flying object that emitted golden flashes and which - according to their description - resembled a reflector in the sky.
The sighting took place while an airliner engine was being installed at the new terminal of Mexico City International Airport.
Visibility conditions were 100% with clear blue skies. According to the Chief of Operations, the probable UFO was at an elevation of 12,000 meters, remaining static for a given amount of time before moving southward, gaining altitude quickly.
Researcher Salazar adds that even his skeptical co-workers are very surprised by what they saw that morning in March.

| Project Beta: The Story of Paul Bennewitz, National Security, and the Creation of a Modern UFO Myth
- Greg Bishop In 1978, Paul Bennewitz, an electrical physicist living in Albuquerque, New Mexico, engaged in some aggressive radio monitoring of the nearby Sandia Labs, then managed by the Department of Defense. When he became convinced that the strange lights hovering over the labs and Kirtland Air Force Base signaled the vanguard of an extraterrestrial alien invasion, he began writing TV stations, newspapers, senators -- and even President Reagan -- to alert them.
For the most part Bennewitz received form-letter replies, but Air Force investigators paid him a visit, as did Bill Moore, author of the first book on the Roswell incident. Before long Moore -- then a new force in civilian UFO research -- was tapped by a group of intelligence agents and a deal was struck: Moore was to keep tabs on Bennewitz while the Air Force ran a psychological profile and disinformation campaign on the unsuspecting physicist. In return, Air Force Intelligence would let Moore in on classified UFO material.
This is Bennewitz's harrowing tale, told by fringe-culture historian Greg Bishop. It is the troubling account of the custom-made hall of smoke and mirrors that eventually drove Bennewitz to a mental institution, as well as the story of the explosive propagation of disinformation that began in 1979 and reverberates through the UFO community and pop culture to this day.
