PUBLISHED STATEMENTS ON UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS

The Brazilian Air Force in an official report has made the
startling statement that flying saucers are real!

The report reads in part as follows:

".....On December 2, 1954, came the last and most important
development in this matter. A conference was performed at
the Army Technical School, patronized by A.D.E.S.G.
(Superior Army School Graduates Association), a very
responsible entity. The selected audience included
important military personnel and civilian authorities. The
subject to be discussed was entitled 'Flying Saucers.'
Colonel Adil de Oliveira was in charge. He made a careful
evaluation of all information and evidence collected
throughout the world since 1947. he analysed Project Blue
Book and studied seven outstanding cases from the project's
files. He discussed the best Brazilian sightings and
concluded making the following statements:

" '1. Evidence shows that the saucers are real. No
government could afford to ignore the reports about u.f.o.s.
and all investigations should be made to determine the
identity of any u.f.o. sighted over the country. The
problem could be of military interest.

"'2. The saucers appear to be some kind of revolutionary
aircraft. They are not conventional phenomena or illusions.
There are too many responsible people involved to say that
the whole thing was a hallucination.

" '3. We don't know where they come from, and we don't know
the purpose of their survey. I hope some day we can solve
the riddle and know the answers.'

"Finally, closing the conference, Brigadier Guedes Muniz
said a few words: 'We military technicians and aeronautic
engineers have not tried in the past to discuss the
technological and scientific probability of these space
vagabonds. And we are not trying to discuss it now, because
we remember an old story, very good to be recalled here:

"Years ago, the best aeronautic engineers in the world
assembled together to study the horn-beetle flight. They
analysed the horn-beetle, it's aerodynamic shape entirely
wrong, it's flight surface tremendously deficient, it's
heaviness and it's incredible power. After a great deal of
reasoning and scientific experimentation they had made
certain that the horn-beetle could not fly. But the horn-
beetle, knowing nothing of this, is still flying!" '...."
