Flying Magazine (World’s most read aviation magazine) – New article on UFOs by a pilot – “Pilots and controllers are in a unique position to help us understand what’s happening above us”. “The more people talk, the more the stigma fades, replaced by genuine curiosity and professional concern”.

>*Now, working as a professional pilot, I spend hours in lounges across the country trading*
*stories. When the conversation lags, I love to ask about UAP or other strange things that they*
*have seen or experienced while flying. At first, people are cautious. But once I mention that I*
*retired from the FAA as an air traffic supervisor and that I took UAP reports almost weekly, they open up and the stories start rolling.*

>*The more people talk, the more the stigma fades, replaced by genuine curiosity and professional concern. I am not sure exactly what it was about changing the name of these events from UFO to UAP, but it seems that has made it more acceptable to talk about these experiences.*

>*Ever since the Navy released videos of UAPs tracked by their aircraft cameras, it feels like*
*something has shifted.* ***It seems suddenly OK to report objects that are unexplainable given our current understanding of science and our universe.***

>*I believe pilots and controllers are in a unique position to help us understand what’s happening*
*above us. For much of my career, it felt taboo to talk about these things. Now, it feels* important.
