All right, Shark Bait, there was no alien. The flash of light you saw in the sky was not a UFO. Swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus.

Now if you will pardon my sunglasses, would you please look at the tip of this pen....

Sounds like a job for Skydiver. Get S.H.A.D.O. on the phone.

My suggestion is to close on her and shoot her down!
Colect all wreckage and alien bodies and report back to base. You and your crew will be never heard from again and the aliens will have won.

Morgan Freeman

In the classic "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," produced in the late 1970s, when the airline pilots reported the UFOs at the beginning of the movie they were asked if they wanted to file a report by air traffic control.when the objects suddenly dropped off radar. None did. Who was the air traffic controller? A very young Morgan Freeman.
What does that have to do with Subsim? Absolutely nothing!
