Manises
The case is perhaps the most important UFO event in Spain and one of the largest in the world for their amount of documentation. With this article I begin a series of articles dealing with this issue trying to structure all aspects are enough to treat them in a single post. This will make a brief summary of what was at first the event in any detail without going too deeply.
November 11, 1979, a model airplane company Supercaravelle TAE, flew from Salzburg (Austria) to Tenerife with a stopover in Mallorca. Its pilot was Francisco Javier Lerdo de Tejada, co-pilot and mechanic Zauza Ramon Francisco Javier Rodríguez.
About eleven o'clock at night, shortly after taking off from Mallorca Tenerife towards the crew contacted the control tower Torrejón de Ardoz (Madrid) and Barcelona control tower to ask for a traffic they are dangerously close. None of the control tower I catch anything on their radar. Two red lights come on the plane, Francisco Javier Lerdo de Tejada made an ascent with the intention of leaving the course to the two red lights but they follow and are placed at 200 meters on your left. After several minutes of persecution the pilot decides to vary their course and make a landing at the Manises airport in Valencia.
lights up the chase just before landing. At that time three forms are detected by the radar. More than 40 witnesses saw the lights from the airport. One of them approached the airport so that the lights of emergency if it was a troubled flight that was preparing for an emergency landing. Eventually the lights went away.
At 00:40 it was off a fighter Mirage F-1 from the air base of Los Llanos in Albacete with a view to intercept the objects had been seen near the airport of Manises. Fernando Camara was Pilot charged with the interception.
He found flying south to Africa, Fernando Chamber requested permission to increase their speed as they could not reach it, put the game to 1.4 mach. What he saw was a truncated cone shape that changes color from red, green and white. The UFO was losing the game away. Shortly after it received another echo on the radar of Valencia, he repeated the operation with the difference that the Mirage was blocked alarms sounding electronic attack. The strange object was lost again. Another echo was located on Sagunto which was repeated throughout the operation again and again on Mahon where the fighter had to turn around and go to the base of Los Llanos for lack of fuel. Here ended
events Manises case itself, this was only the beginning of the UFO phenomenon most studied and documented in Spain.
