Speaker 1: MIB's in Mexico by Charles Lear in the August nineteen
Speaker 1: seventy five APRO Bulletin, the front page story headlined UFO's
Speaker 1: Escort Mexican Aircraft has details of a pilot's reported UFO encounter.
Speaker 1: Backing them up is confirmation from the air traffic controller
Speaker 1: who was in contact at the time. What's not included
Speaker 1: are details of the aftermath, which include reports by the
Speaker 1: witness of encounters with men in Black. This part of
Speaker 1: the story can be found in the nineteen ninety book
Speaker 1: The UFO Silencers by Timothy Green Beckley and in the
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety seven British UFO Research Association publication by Robert
Speaker 1: Bull Men in Black a preliminary report. According to the
Speaker 1: Bulletin at ten thirty a m. On May third, nineteen
Speaker 1: seventy four, twenty three old Carlos Antonio de la Santos
Speaker 1: Montio took off from Zijuantino's state of Guerrero in his
Speaker 1: piper Aztec twenty four with the registration x b x
Speaker 1: a U. He was headed for Mexico City on a
Speaker 1: cloudy day with poor visibility and had to climb to
Speaker 1: fourteen thousand five hundred feet to get above it. When
Speaker 1: he was over tequis Kitango, he dropped down to try
Speaker 1: and get a look at Lake Techwis Kitango so he
Speaker 1: could verify his position. When he got below the clouds,
Speaker 1: fog and misted near the ground blocked his view of
Speaker 1: the lake, but his attention was quickly drawn to another
Speaker 1: matter altogether. To his right, he saw three meter diameter
Speaker 1: saucer with a cupola on top that had what looked
Speaker 1: like a small window and an antenna. He looked to
Speaker 1: his left and saw an identical object. Both were twenty
Speaker 1: centimeters above the wings and about one and a half
Speaker 1: meters from the cabin. According to the bulletin, Montil told
Speaker 1: officials the following I was petrified after I saw a
Speaker 1: third object which seemed about to collide head on with
Speaker 1: the windshield, but it went beneath the aircraft, and I
Speaker 1: heard a strange noise from below, as though it had
Speaker 1: collided with the underside of the plane. Montille noted that
Speaker 1: his speed had decreased from one hundred and forty to
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty nautical miles per hour. He tried
Speaker 1: to bank left in order to bump the left object
Speaker 1: away but his controls were frozen. He tried lowering his
Speaker 1: landing gear to deal with the object underneath him, but
Speaker 1: found it wasn't functional. He then contacted the Mexico City
Speaker 1: Airport control tower, and a transcript provided by APRO field
Speaker 1: investigator Fernando J. Tellesperea is presented. Montill called in, saying
Speaker 1: may day, and apparently was unable to hear a response.
Speaker 1: He then described his situation Extra Alpha Union to Center Mexico.
Speaker 1: My aircraft is out of control. I have no control
Speaker 1: over it. I have three unidentified objects flying around me.
Speaker 1: Three unidentified objects flying around me. One came under my
Speaker 1: aircraft and hit it. The landing gear is locked in
Speaker 1: and the controls won't release them. My position, I'm on
Speaker 1: the radio zero zero four from the v oor teklis Kitango.
Speaker 1: I'm not controlling the plane. Center Mexico. Can you hear me.
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem that Montille was able to hear anything
Speaker 1: from the tower, but he was eventually put in radio
Speaker 1: contact with his uncle, who was an authority on aircraft.
Speaker 1: The runways were closed at the airport and preparations were
Speaker 1: made for an emergency landing. As Montille got close to
Speaker 1: the airport, his elevation had gone from fifteen thousand feet
Speaker 1: to fifteen thousand, eight hundred feet. Then the saucer on
Speaker 1: the left moved over the cabin until it was above
Speaker 1: the saucer on the right, and then both flew off together.
Speaker 1: There is no mention of the third saucer. Monteille circled
Speaker 1: the airport eight times as he tried to lower the
Speaker 1: landing gear using a screwdriver on the control oculum, and
Speaker 1: finally managed to do so. He then landed on the
Speaker 1: grass between two runways at one thirty four p m.
Speaker 1: Where emergency vehicles were waiting. He was taken to the
Speaker 1: airport clinic and it was determined that he was not
Speaker 1: under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Two days later,
Speaker 1: he underwent tests to determine whether flying too high without
Speaker 1: oxygen had caused him to hallucinate. Doctor Luis Amazuka, chief
Speaker 1: of the Mexico City Airport's Aviation Medicine department, gave his
Speaker 1: opinion that Montille was suffering from low blood sugar because
Speaker 1: he had skipped breakfast, and inferred that this was the cause.
Speaker 1: Details of Montille's reported at my be encounters are on
Speaker 1: page seventeen of the buffor publication by Robert Bull. According
Speaker 1: to Bull, Montille's case got a lot of publicity, much
Speaker 1: to his embarrassment. He reluctantly agreed to appear on a
Speaker 1: TV show hosted by Pedro Fries, and on his way
Speaker 1: to to the studio, a black Ford Galaxy limousine pulled
Speaker 1: in front of him, and he saw an identical car
Speaker 1: behind him. Both looked brand new. He was forced to
Speaker 1: pull over and stop, and as he went to get
Speaker 1: out of his car, he saw four tall men with
Speaker 1: broad shoulders get out of their cars and walk towards him.
Speaker 1: They looked Scandinavian, with very pale skin, and were wearing
Speaker 1: black suits. One of them went to Monteille's door, put
Speaker 1: his hand on it and prevented Montiale from getting out.
Speaker 1: With a mechanical tone. He said in Spanish, look, boy,
Speaker 1: if you value your life and your families too, don't
Speaker 1: talk any more about this sighting of yours. Montille was stunned, speechless,
Speaker 1: and obediently turned his car around and drove home. Two
Speaker 1: days later, Montiale described his experience to Fariz, who told
Speaker 1: him he had heard similar stories from other witnesses. Montille
Speaker 1: was convinced to proceed with the interview, and it went
Speaker 1: forward without incident. According to bull j ellen Hainik was
Speaker 1: in Mexico two months later and got in touch with
Speaker 1: Montille after hearing about his case. He invited Montille to
Speaker 1: his hotel and he went. After first going for a
Speaker 1: job interview at Mexicana Airlines. Montille was walking up the
Speaker 1: steps of the hotel when he was confronted by one
Speaker 1: of the men who had threatened him. The man said,
Speaker 1: you were already warned once you are not to talk
Speaker 1: about your experience. Montille tried to explain that he was
Speaker 1: only responding to an invitation, and the man pushed him
Speaker 1: sharply back several feet and said, look, I don't want
Speaker 1: you to make problems for yourself. And why did you
Speaker 1: leave your house at sixth this morning? Do you work
Speaker 1: for Mexicana Airlines. Get out of here and don't come
Speaker 1: back once again. Montiale obeyed. When talking to Jerome Clark
Speaker 1: two years later, he said, they were strange. They were huge,
Speaker 1: taller than Mexicans are, and they were so white. But
Speaker 1: the strangest thing of all is that all the while
Speaker 1: they were in my presence, I never saw them blank
Speaker 1: Beckley interviewed Heinech and includes his comments on the case
Speaker 1: in his book. Heinech confirmed that Montiale had failed to
Speaker 1: show up, but said he came back the following Saturday.
Speaker 1: Heinech said he interviewed Monteille for two hours and invited
Speaker 1: him to have breakfast on Monday. Montelle didn't show up
Speaker 1: for that and explained that he had again been threatened
Speaker 1: by the same man. Charles Lear is the author of
