TommyK Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I heard it was NeoCon's kid. Found him hiding in a box up in the attic. There is speculation he had done something to loose the experimental craft from it's moorings in the back yard, then hid to avoid getting in trouble with the folks. The kid's 6. This is something he will tell his grandkids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingarmadillo Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 The family has been on "Wife Swap" twice, are UFO enthusiasts, amateur stormchasers, and publicity hounds. I suspect the whole thing was a hoax to get back in the spotlight. Hope the government sticks them for the whole cost of the search and rescue, flight delays at DIA and everything else. The "experimental aircraft" was a rigid helium balloon shaped like a UFO that they were going to let go inside a tornado to "investigate the electrical and magnetic interaction between UFOs and tornados" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
