It has lately been reported in UFO circles, that a BBC executive recently let slip the fact that a D-Notice has been placed on the subject of "Flying Triangle" craft. This matter has been the subject of previous rumours and speculation for a number of years. However, before we all start screaming "Cover-up and Censorship!" let us examine some of the information that has come to hand in recent months.

As the result of sifting through UFO reports and information from confidential sources, I have concluded that it is extremely likely that Britain has been working in great secrecy, on the development of a triangular Stealth aircraft. Small black triangular craft have been seen with accompanying conventional aircraft on a number of occasions and may be controlled by a 'parent' craft.

The following report is taken from the "Wigan Reporter" published in 22 August 1996. "At 1.30pm on Monday August 12, a number of people in the Wigan area heard a very noisy helicopter overhead. On rushing outside to look at the copter, they found that it was a Chinook twin rotor machine flying extremely low. It was following a small black matt triangular object about a quarter of a mile in front of it. The Chinook was moving very slowly and was followed about two minutes later by a Jaguar fighter that passed overhead as low as the copter -with its undercarriage down." (In order to keep its speed as low as possible, no doubt!)
A confidential UFO report that I investigated in July 1997 deepened the mystery .The incident took place near Rugeley, Staffs. at night, near the home of a Mr 'N'.

The witness was working late at night (approx.1am) in his home, which is situated near a heavily wooded area, when his attention was attracted by a noise "similar to a high revving two-stroke engine" outside his home. He went outside in the darkness and vaguely made out lights and the shape of an object hovering about 150yards away and at a height of about 150ft. Mr 'N' went indoors and fetched his binoculars and he was then able to make out the shape of a black helicopter in the vicinity of the lights. It so happened that Mr 'N' was a bit of electronics buff and had a night vision scope, which he returned with a few minutes later. (Type Tasco, lst generation type, with night scope and also infra-red beam emission).

He then viewed the aircraft again and clearly saw the helicopter, which was illuminated by the flashing strobe and navigation lights. He described it as being similar to the " Air Wolf' helicopter in the television series. He then switched on the infra-red beam and immediately noticed that there was a completely blacked out, triangular craft adjacent to the helicopter. "1 couldn't believe my eyes" he commented. The triangle, which was a similar size to the helicopter, reflected no light from the strobe/navigation lights and appeared to have no visible means of propulsion or support in the hovering mode. The witness stated that there was no apparent noise coming from the triangular craft, although the helicopter may have drowned this out. Almost instantaneously, the helicopter switched on a light beam towards the witness (blinding his equipment), while at the same time moving away "at an incredible rate of knots. It disappeared like a rocket". Mr 'N' tried to follow it with his night viewer, then suddenly realised that it was more important to study the triangular craft. He turned back to where it had been hovering, but it was gone! ( Mr 'N' was sure that he had witnessed a secret aircraft and was petrified that he might be the subject of investigation if he related the incident to anyone. He eventually only mentioned it to two other close friends.)

A further report reached me from 'Skywatch International' at Spilsby, Lincs. This concerned a sighting by a witness on the night of the 17th September 1998.

"I finished work at Louth at 10pm and headed out on the B1502. It was 10.25pm and I was about 4 miles past Ulceby Cross, when I saw something in the starry night sky that I thought looked a little odd. I saw what I believed to be two Tornado aircraft in company with a craft that because of its lights, appeared to be of a triangle nature. On each point it had a bright green glow, rather than a green created by a light bulb. The triangle completed flight manoeuvres that I had never seen before. As the two aircraft approached my car, the left aircraft tried to get ahead, the two aircraft seemed to be trying to get the triangular craft to stay on a specific heading. As the aircraft passed over my car I looked up through my sunroof and noticed that the triangular craft was about three-quarters the size of the Tornado aircraft. I live near RAF Coningsby and I am familiar with Tornado aircraft."

Finally on the 15 August 1997,1 received some information from a 'confident', who revealed details of a surprising conversation at a recent Aeronautical show

Source: "In absolute confidence please. I deal with aviation products, I do Pilot Supplies, Satellite Navigation Equipment, I retail various products. We did an exhibition at Christmas, at 'XXXXX'. This chappie came to see me and we were talking about aircraft. I gather that he is a civilian, in his sixty's and ex-military and commented that he had flown a lot of aircraft, all sorts of aircraft. We were talking about aircraft and I sprung the question on him that I do with all sorts of people, do you believe in UFO's?"

Source: "He said to me- 'what do you mean?', I replied that we had heard of people that have had quite a few sightings of the Flying Triangle. 'Yes', he said 'Yes. I make them.' I said how do you mean I make them? 'Well let me put it this way' he said, 'we are actually making triangular shaped craft in this country, but we are aware of what we would call extra- terrestrial craft flying over this country .' He repeated, when questioned 'We are aware that there are Triangylar craft flying over this country. that are not of this world!' At this, I moved him away from the other customers, as this was a private conversation. I said to him, 'do you mind me asking you one question, where are you?' I said. '1 can't tell you that' he said. I said, 'I'll ask you one other question. What is the chance of me visiting your factory?' , Absolutely not,' he said. 'We're not Top Secret, we're levels above Top Secret.' 'We have materials now, in this country, that we could manufacture Stealth aircraft with that would be virtually undetectable." Source: "Undetectable by what means, I don't know, visual, night vision, radar, I don't know. He complained to me, 'quite frankly, that there were too many, so and so's in London sitting on their backsides, who were not releasing funds to us, but we have the technology to lead the world in Stealth aircraft.' Then he said, 'our aircraft are telemetrically controlled. " (This would account for the widely reported parent. aircraft).

Source: "That is 100% the truth, but please don't mention my name. He seemed a very sincere fellow. I can't disclose his name for obvious reasons, but yes, that's what I was told. "
In conclusion, we must accept that the placing of a "D-Notice" on the subject of Flying Triangles, could well have taken place to guard the secret development of a British Stealth aircraft and not as the censorship of information on extra-terrestrial FT's. After all, which is the more important from the government point of view?
