The Hunt for 928 or Has Anyone Seen This Spy Plane? (1999)

  • This is a great read. If I were closer to the area I'd definitely have spent some time trying to recreate the investigation and check out the site.

    Also, got to plug the story of the search for the lost German tourists in Death Valley[1]. I feel like his writing in that series really gets you in the head of the lost, and is morbidly fascinating.

  • > For a while prior to this, I had been poking into the field of remote viewing, which hadn’t yet quite burst into the public’s perception ... I had contact with a couple of remote viewers and thought this might be a useful test of this rather strange skill. The data back seemed to indicate a spot not southeast of Leith, but southwest.

    Wait - what?

    This threw me off because my impression of the author was somebody who was very technical and critical.

    Great read - nonetheless.

  • Funny to see something like this here. I went with my dad on some airplane wreck hunts when I was younger, though none quite as epic as this one. You'd really be surprised how complete some of these plane wrecks are if they are hard to get to. One I recall was a F-104 thunderchief. It was just amazing to me that they didn't try to remove any of this stuff: https://imgur.com/a/5uToG

  • Reading this reminded me of one interceptor variant that was canceled. Same specs as the A-12, but armed ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_YF-12 ). The second seat was added to operate the fire control system (radar/weapons).

    Very cool read though.

  • Interesting, but there's an awful lot of UFO and remote viewing mentions in there.
