Stealth Tech: An Explanation For Disappearing Aircraft & Persistent Contrails?

Human Made High Technology is being presented as an
explanation for "disappearing aircraft" witnessed by
myself and other researchers studying persistent contrails.
One must consider both prosaic explanations and exotic
Defense R&D before concluding what some report
seeing is taken as conclusive evidence of alien
technology.

Electrochromatic panels (tiny video sensors) on the skin
of aircraft is one such exotic technology which could
explain as least some of the sightings reported.

It might be enlightening to visit the Project
Chameleo/Richard N. Schowengerdt's website which
presents papers, videos and drawings explaning some of
the more recents research projects conducted by research
scientist and the Air Force...

and take a look at the following patent:

Fulghum/Washington).

While it is possible that many experimental missions and
varying atmospheric conditions are occuring in our
atmosphere and that stealth tech/camouflage undoubtedly
is being developed, one must ask the following questions:
What would be the purpose of using such stealth tech (if
economically and technologically feasible) in non-combat
situations in the skies above populated areas? If it is
feasible, why would it be necessary? Who are they hiding
from?

And if it is indeed human-made technology in use and in
some way connected with the creation of persistent
contrails, why cloak the aircraft and forget about the
billowing emissions stretching out for miles behind?

Perhaps one explanation for my sighting of a blinking out
"craft" and its persistent contrail is the experimentation of
'emissions cloaking' along with aircraft camouflage. Much
R&D is taking place in radar jamming and emissions
control...but why would our military be testing or using
such cloaking devices over a populated area in mid day?

Again: Who are they hiding from?

I also wanted to address a comment Gordon Scott made
regarding sightings of disappearing planes in his article
"Disappearing Planes: Not An Off-The-Shelf
Technology" appearing at
http://sightings.com/general3/disaa.htm

"I have been following the various reports of the
disappearing planes and have yet to find an observer who
said "I was watching it with binoculars, never took my
eyes off it for a moment, and it just blinked out and is
totally gone".

It is evident that Scott has not seen my report on a
"craft" and its miles-long persistent contrail that winked
out as I was watching it through binoculars last
December. (see report below)

Certainly it is most important that observers who feel
they have witnessed a disappearing aircraft to consider
that aircraft can make sudden moves --shifting in altitude
and direction. In addition, clouds or obscuring haze
(particularly what we are seeing out there now apparently
resulting from persistent contrails) and lighting conditions
can appear to change the color and reflectivity of craft
traveling through the atmosphere.

What I witnessed was in a clear blue sky and I was
intensely watching this "craft" and its dashing persistent
contrail through binoculars coming toward me.

Though I feel that witnessing this event is a rare
occurence (I have spend hundreds of hours skywatching
over the last year and a half and have only witnessed a
'wink out' of a PC aircraft before me one time) -- I
certainly will be out watching with video camera in hand
in hopes to capture this event on video. And I encourage
other researchers and the public to do the same.

Regarding Disappearing Aircraft And Human
Technology...

While I think it is very probable that our government has
developed much stealth and camouflage technology,
there are a few things that this explanation of
disappearing aircraft does not take into account...
"aircraft" which apparently disappear along with their
persistent contrails being one of them.

Myself and others have witnessed not only something
looking like an aircraft suddenly and inexplicably vanish
before our eyes...but have witnessed the craft and its
miles-long persistent contrail vanish simultaneously.

One of these startling events took place on 12/23/99 at
8:10am CST near Lake Lewisville, TX just north of
Dallas. My account is as follows.

The Not So Persistent Contrail...

During the last part of December 1999, I decided to go
out into my unfenced yard which ajoins a wooded area
and lake to do a bit of skywatching. The day before this
particular day I had seen many persistent contrails...as
well as some very peculiar looking multiple contrails with
no apparent craft in front of them.

It was a cool morning with a few clouds to the
southeast--otherwise a fairly clear sky. As I watched to
the east, I spotted an aircraft flying east just south of my
position creating a broad white persistent contrail at about
15,000 feet. I noted a very slight haze in that area of the
sky but had no trouble seeing this craft clearly through
my 10x50 binoculars.

Just as this aircraft moved out of view into the cloud
bank to the southeast -- I spotted what I thought was
another aircraft spewing out a persistent contrail moving
from the southeast toward me taking a NW heading. The
contrail behind this apparent aircraft was broad but fairly
thin as compared with the other one just formed and
seemed to be on an upward incline.

What I saw in front of this persistent contrail appeared to
be oblong but had no distinct shape, no glints from the
sun and looked more dusky pink than white or silver. I
watched this object intently through my binoculars noting
that the persistent contrail "cut out" on occasion leaving a
blank space a couple of times in the clear blue sky.

I kept thinking that it would "clarify" as it got closer. This
one was higher by 10,000 feet but I had seen other
aircraft that morning in the same area which were very
distinguishable and identifiable.

As this object was to the ESE moving within range for
identification, its contrail stopped and started repeatedly.

This particular contrail had to be many miles in length
with breaks.

Suddenly, while I had the object and part of the
persistent contrail in sight with my binoculars -- the
object or aircraft inexplicably disappeared-- blinked out
totally not to return.

This was mind-blowing enough to absorb -- but what was
really beyond my ability to explain with either a prosaic
or exotic explanation was the fact that the entire
persistent contrail "blinked out" along with the craft. I am
sorry to say that I was not taking a video or photos at the
time.

I searched the clear blue sky for a possible reappearance
of the strange object or aircraft and saw nothing but the
slowly spreading previously laid contrail to my right and
clear blue sky where the object and its not-so-persistent
contrail had been.

While I have seen various "camouflaging" effects of
aircraft creating persistent contrails and the contrail
related "haze" -- white aircraft becoming darker in
different lighting conditions, aircraft moving through a
thin haze becoming white then blue and back again, even
contrail shadows bouncing in front of aircraft.

Although I have not witnessed the complete
disappearance of an aircraft/object with its persistent
contrail since--I have witnessed a very long persistent
contrail across a clear southern sky no longer there
having looked away for only a few seconds.

I have two questions for cosideration:

1) How is active camouflage technology applied to
persistent contrails to make them disappear
simultaneously with the "aircraft"?

2) What purpose would it serve to be visible then
suddenly become invisible during a PC run (in
supposedly non-combat, non-experimental situations)?
From whom are they hiding?

If one takes into consideration that some rather
odd-shaped "aircraft" (eg. oval, teardrop, spherical) might
themselves be creating persistent contrails (see
http://tracers.8m.com/UCC.htm) -- then the reports of
anomalous objects appearing in front of persistent
contrails would certainly provide an explanation for
disappearing "aircraft" and their persistent contrails... and
also provide a reason for the necessity of military aircraft
or extraterrestrial craft to suddenly camouflage
themselves in the open skies.
