11/ The original Sea Fury case is still a legendary case, but one you probably never heard of. A trained naval pilot watched one bright object cross his flight path before a second appeared. Both seemed to move into positions near his aircraft. He could see vague forms beneath centrally placed white lights but no clear features of conventional aircraft. While this was happening, a naval radar operator recorded three returns in the area. One was moving towards Nowra while two travelled northea...

7/ Nowra asked O'Farrell to turn onto a course of 180 degrees so the operators could identify which of the three radar returns belonged to him. Jessop's report records O'Farrell's answer as "negative." The operator then stopped tracking the paints. O'Farrell reported that the two lights reformed at his nine o'clock position and disappeared on a northeast heading. He described their apparent crossing speed as the fastest he had ever experienced, although he didn't give a numerical estimate for...

6/ Jessop submitted his own statement, separate from O'Farrell's. He wrote that two radar paints appeared at a bearing of approximately 280 degrees and a distance of 32 miles from Nowra. About 15 seconds later, another paint appeared in the same area. One return seemed to be tracking towards the base. The other two were moving in a northeast direction. The radar couldn't tell Jessop what produced those returns. It did show three targets in the area at the same time O'Farrell was reporting two...

5/ The strongest part of the Sea Fury case began when O'Farrell used his radio. He didn't wait until he had landed and then tell somebody what he thought he had seen. While the objects were still near him, he contacted Nowra and asked whether or not the station had his aircraft on radar. In his report, O'Farrell explained that he was hoping the operators would confirm that other aircraft were in the area. The question gave Petty Officer K.E. Jessop no description of flying saucers to look for...
