Had the good fortune to capture this 'flying saucer' that crashed in the Nevada area, and a local told me it was on its way to be reverse engineered;)

The truck shown is really a cleverly designed CIA stealth recovery vehicle (note the stealth radar deflecting front bumper guard). Just another blatent coverup by "Big Brother".

So, if it isn't real, where is the driver? I believe it's real, but I know we don't negotiate with Aliens, so I'm sure they will keep him. ;)

I like it. . . . good eye. :eyes

Adding to the above Alien 'Malarkey' we had breakfast in the lttle cafe, and one of the elderly locals sat and explained to me and my wife, that he had seen 'Humanoid Locusts' in the area when he was younger
My wife having never heard of Area 51 etc - sounds like that guy got out of bed the wrong side this morning.. LOL

I'm sorry, but the original picture is far too in focus to be a real UFO.


Just returned after many years hiatus from this forum. I was a bit of a prat before, if I ever offended you, I'm sorry

I've got all the equipment I need, now I just need inspiration :D
