UFO in China

[tpreitzel]

Has the Chinese military reverse engineered one of these craft? If so, why would the craft be hovering near an airport and delaying civilian air traffic?

Possible ... Again, why was the airport shut down for an hour? Oh, yeah, the Chinese military has priority over civilian traffic and needed to shutdown civilian air traffic for an hour due to impromptu "clandestine" military maneuvers over a busy airport in some sort of advanced helicopter which some poor soul mistook for an UFO. Hardy har har. Let's have some specific facts verifying the latter implication in this particular case, eh? Could this photograph be a deliberate prank as well as one of mistaken identity? Possibly, immature people craving attention exist in ALL nations of the world, but then the nagging questions surrounding the apparent shutdown of air traffic remain. Personally, the standard adage that 95% of the UFO cases can be explained is sheer nonsense. Employing any objectivity whatsoever, the unexplained cases are much closer to 20%. Whenever I hear someone mindlessly parrot that 95% of the UFO cases can be explained, I simply laugh. Sure, it's possible that this case is explainable in conventional terms, but legitimate questions remain outstanding.

Um...that photo and others (bar maybe one) aren't even from China. That one you posted was from Lille, France 2007. That link to People Daily and the pic on it, even if it's from Hangzhou, it's soooo obviously a long exposure that I have to put in one of these

Do you not find it suspect the way the media has pushed the Chinese UFO pictures and videos? Used to be a time when they would ignore UFO tales...now they do their bit in promoting the hoax. Coming up after the break...

Saw Letterman the other night with a video of the Chinese UFO...except it was the Soyuz launch from Kyrgyzstan June 30. Maybe it's a lithmus test into the current IQ levels of the Gen Pop.

Like the man said, whatever it was that caused the shutdown may never be known, but what is for certain, is that all those pics and vids have no relevance whatsoever. They ain't from China...they're from the Internet.

Another day...another empty secret.

LOL. How can the one photograph as posted in my original link, the sole picture in People's Daily article, possibly be from both China and Lille, France 2007? BTW, I didn't post ANY photograph separately from the link to the article in the People's Daily. Frankly, I don't really care about your opinion here as I simply want facts like your alleged source that the one photograph posted in the original link is from Lille, France in 2007. Some investigators who've examined the photograph posted in the original link think differently from you. Secondly, your extrapolation that this particular object MUST be a picture of a time-lapsed capture of a conventional aircraft because of similarities to other time-lapsed captures is simply one possibility, not fact in light of the alleged shutdown of air traffic for one hour. Unfortunately for your assumptions, the latter condition is a big problem for your position until it's satisfactorily resolved as a fake in this sequence of allegedly fake or misidentified events. Is it possible that this event is a time-lapsed picture of a conventional aircraft? Sure, it's possible, but bizarre in light of the cessation of commercial air traffic for one hour since the object was apparently unidentifiable to air traffic controllers.

Do you not find it suspect the way the media has pushed the O'Hare sighting as well? Maybe, the government-controlled Chinese media sees a profit in reporting UFOs now and are simply catching up with the government-controlled mass media in the West.

Implying what precisely and YOU watch Letterman?

Other investigators disagree with you. * Until Ruan's statement is proven fake, investigators can probably safely assume that Ruan had consulted with air traffic controllers and dismissed helicopters and other conventional aircraft as a likely explanation, eh? Additionally, some investigators have emphasized the lightning rods with spherical attachments as depicted in the article in the People's Daily as being largely confined to China. Currently, your opinion isn't certainty, but it's a possibility. You know the old adage about opinions, eh? At this point, I'm leaning more in the direction of an intentional disinformation campaign being waged by governments to discredit the photograph in the article by mixing and disseminating it elsewhere along with photographs of other incidents. For unknown reasons, different parties in China are apparently vying for control of this incident's development... similar to Western countries. Again, the thorny problem of distinguishing between time-lapsed photographs of UFOs and conventional aircraft remains as UFOs are known to assume numerous shapes or even mimic shapes like conventional aircraft.

“There was an unknown object seen in the skies over the airport.
So, according to our regulations, we had to close the airspace. Aircraft
movements were suspended from 8:45 PM to 9:45 PM (on July 7, 2010).”
