Chiles-Whitted UFO Encounter
A strange aircraft flying over home at night is one frightening event, for certain. Clarence Chiles and John Whitted, the pilot and co-pilot of a commercial flight, reported that the sky was evident when they were over Montgomery, Alabama, on July 24th, 1948.
Witnesses reported that they were driving southbound on Highway 97 approaching Point Roberts when they observed a large aircraft fly right past them, almost colliding with the passenger plane they were flying. Chiles likened it to a “dull red glow above and ahead of the aircraft.”
