Peculiar UFO sighting

Peculiar UFO sighting...actually, it was a pre-arranged UFO sighting

One of the original UFO 'contactees' from the fifties, he called himself Major Wayne Aho. He said he had been in the army in WW2.

I first heard of him in 1980 on Ron Wood's Honolulu radio program. Aho spoke of benevolent ''Space Brothers' helping humanity avoid self destruction. He was known for that.

Anyway he invited listeners to attend a meet and greet with the Space Brothers. The Brothers were scheduled to land at Oahu's Dillingham Field, a north shore airfield popular with sky divers, and gliders. Approaching the field in our 61 T-Bird, we slowed to find the entrance, as darkness fell. As we slowed, the dash lights and headlights blinked on and off two times, about ten seconds apart, which never happened before, or since. The engine did not miss a beat.

The Major already had about fifty people standing in a big circle on a grassy area. A few stars peeked through typical light cloud cover. After about fifteen minutes we saw, a circle of a dozen lights in the sky. We heard no sound other than the surf and rustling palm fronds at the beach close by. The lights' circle was much larger than the people circle which was maybe 100 feet in diameter.

The lights appeared to be either in or above the clouds, and 'fuzzy', like streetlamps in fog. After about twenty minutes the circle of lights moved away slowly to the east and out of sight. Aho's female companion said the space brothers telepathically told her they could not land due to some kind of danger.

I think Aho was merely the man on the ground, and not running the light show. Whoever was responsible for the light show apparently did not provide their ground man Aho with a car. I had called the radio station that first day with a question for him, and the first thing Aho said was "Do you have wheels?" I wound up being his chauffer while he was in town. He contacted and met with several Kahunas while there. I wonder why those behind the light show didn't spring for wheels for their front man on the ground.

Aho had been charged with fraud years before...
...Aho soon fell under the spell of another one-time Adamski follower, Otis T. Carr. Carr claimed to have built a full-size flying saucer operating on authentic Adamskian or Teslarian "magnetic" principles, and after a suitable amount of money had been collected from gullible elderly attendees at the lectures of Aho and Carr, they announced the Carr saucer, piloted by Carr and Aho, would take off from a fairground in front of thousands of witnesses and fly to the moon, returning with incontrovertible proof of the trip. Criminal charges against both Aho and Carr resulted from the inevitable public fiasco, but Aho was judged to be an innocent dupe.

"The lights' circle was much larger than the people circle which was maybe 100 feet in diameter."

Guessing the size of something in the sky when you have no idea what it is you're looking at is notoriously difficult. There's very little up there you can use to compare it to.
 
Aho's female companion said the space brothers telepathically told her they could not land due to some kind of danger.
Uh-huh. Sure. Got it. I'm guessing it was the sound of the nearby surf that threw off all their powerful, intergalactic instrumentation.
 
A quick check of WWII archives finds a Wayne Aho who served four years and was discharged as a 1st Sergeant. However, many contactees were inveterate self-promoters.

Right, especially without knowing its altitude. I can only say the silent circle of lights was much larger than the circle of people.

If I knew it was fifty feet above the ground, I'd guess that it might have been about 150' in diameter.

If there was no wind then the hot air balloon would also remain stationary.

There was wind, as there usually is there

Otherwise the palm fronds across the road would not have been heard rustling, as they do in the usual tradewinds.

He said he was stationed in the Aleutians, and that they were on high alert in the days before Pearl Harbor was attacked.
 
Might it have been a projection on the clouds from the ground?

Laser light shows were around in the early 1970's.

Maybe, if such a projection can manage these points:

There was no beam of lights visible from ground to cloud.

The circle of lights eventually moved slowly out of sight.
 
I wasn't gonna reveal this, but the truth will out. There are UFOs up there; gas-bags from another planet. Uranus Fart Orifices. They look like footballs with fingers dangling down. Do not pull the fingers.

Lasers could do both.

Balloon pilots raise and lower their altitude to find different wind currents.
