The Encounter
The person in this account is Christian van Heist, a 747 cargo pilot. He has had multiple anomalous sightings during his flying career. In July 2005, while flying over Southern Germany, he saw a bright white light falling vertically through the clouds. In September 2005, while landing in Greece, he observed a bright light that moved rapidly, disappearing and reappearing before accelerating away at incredible speeds. Christian initially thought these sightings might be military-related but later began to question their explanations. After these encounters, he became more interested in UAPs and hopes that more pilots will share their experiences. He aims to understand what he has seen and contribute to the conversation about UAPs.
