Several times the Air Force scrambled jet fighters
and helicopters to chase down the UFOs but failed to intercept them. One pursuing helicopter was guided to within 1,000 ft of a UFO |

In several instances the mysterious UFOs were first reported to be helicopters, but an Air Force spokesman admitted: "The overflights were not identified as helicopters. Unsuccessful attempts were made to trace the craft."
The Enquirer uncovered these UFO sightings by digging through official Air Force documents available under the Freedom of Information Act.
On October 27, 28 and 31, 1975, a UFO invaded the security of Loring Air Force Base in Limestone, Maine, hovering over the weapons storage area.
The first night the UFO was seen visually for 35 minutes and tracked on radar for 40 minutes more. The next night the object hovered only 150 feet over the weapons storage area. A helicopter was sent up and flew within 1,000 ft. of the UFO – but the crew could not see it.
