Mexican Air Force: ‘We Are Not Alone’

On March 5, 2004, the Mexican Secretariat of Defense filmed 11 unidentified objects on its FLIR (forward looking infrared). The crew reported the UFOs at an altitude near that of their plane, 11,500 feet, and later told news reporters it felt as if they were surrounded. “I believe they could feel we were pursuing them,” the plane’s captain later said, according to an Associated Press article.
