Contact with 3 UFO spheres on November 4, 1968

On November 4, 1968, an IB-249 of the Spanish company IBERIA was flying to Alicante from London on the B31 highway, commander Juan Ignacio Lorenzo Torres, co-pilot Juan Seldran Garcia, and flight mechanic Jose Cuenca Paneke. 

Crew commander Juan Ignacio Lorenzo Torres started flying planes at the age of 17, he was an officer in the Spanish Air Force for 40 years, piloted the plane of King Juan Carlos de Bourbon, was a combat pilot in the Sahara, and director of an aviation school. Simply put, he was a very experienced pilot with combat experience and who can be classified as a high-level professional who flew more than 28,000 hours.

Crew Commander Juan Ignacio Lorenzo Torres:

"I was then the commander of the "Caravel". When we reached Barcelona, the airport dispatcher ordered us to descend, it was strange. But I thought it might have been an intersection of planes, and for that reason, they forced us down. So I said the co-pilot, Juan Belgrano Garcia, conducts foreign surveillance in case he sees us approaching aircraft.

The dispatcher later reported that at a higher level they see a plane approaching us. We were on the 310 level when approaching Barcelona, and the dispatcher ordered us to drop to 280. That is, up to 28,000 feet (8.5 km). There was a bit of turbulence at this level and I asked the co-pilot not to let his guard down. After a while, Juan warned me: "I see him." But it wasn't another plane.

It was a very strong light. Too powerful to be the plane's taillights. He came down from above and just took a position in front of us. I told the co-pilot not to report the presence of this object yet because it didn't look like a normal plane.

Commander of Iberia, he piloted a Caravel from London to Alicante

The strange light came very close. He was only 10 meters ahead of the nose of our plane. Suddenly, another light appeared in the center, like a ball, of different shades. The color changed from white to blue and then to grayish. The most curious thing is that it pulsed as if it was "breathing".

It's like he has a life of his own. At this moment, we also saw two other lights, somewhat smaller and of the same dull color, flanking the main one. The object flew ahead, keeping a clear distance and maintaining the same speed as us. There were three objects, one large in the center and two smaller ones on either side of it, but they acted so synchronously that it looked like a single object. The light was very powerful.

Me, the co-pilot, and the flight mechanic looked at it, and then we called the flight attendant. And we asked her if she could see that light, too. She said yes and asked what it was. We said we didn't know, just wanted to make sure she could see it, too. Then the lights went out. And turned on again. The object approached us and to our amazement, it began to make incredible movements around the plane. But at such a speed that we could barely follow it with our eyes.

It lasted about ten minutes. Then I contacted the dispatcher: "For your information, I will tell you that we have an unidentified object that is approaching and moving away from the plane."

The flight control tower at Barcelona Airport asked us to put a "transponder", which is a code for detection on the radar. The UFO continued to turn these amazing turns around us. A few twists and turns that were supposed to destroy whoever was inside. No living thing could survive such an overload.

It seemed to us that this object was alive. It reminded me of a giant human eye. These" veins, " or whatever they were, were intertwined and had a different hue. This light, as I said, was pulsing. I really associated it with something alive.

The UFO started playing around the plane as he wanted. Rise, fall, approach, move away and perform either direct maneuvers or parabolic maneuvers. I've been flying since I was seventeen, and I know that the human body can't take an overload over "5". If this limit is exceeded, loss of consciousness occurs. No matter what kind of anti-gravity suit you're wearing.

This object was contrary to all the laws of physics. Soon he was flying at a right angle and draw the hyperbola, the parabola, then suddenly jumping from one point to another. It was crazy!

We turned on all the lights in the plane and started signaling. He began to respond in the same way. Every time we changed the light, it did the same thing. If we turned on the lights, he turned on the lights, too. It was clear that he was communicating with us.

I asked questions, first in English, he didn't respond, then in Spanish, and I don't know if he understood the words or if he read my mind, but when I said that 1 blink per question would mean "Yes" and double blink "No" he did.

I asked him a total of about 20 questions, to which I received light answers. But I can't tell you all the questions I've asked, because I've been made clear that I shouldn't talk about it to avoid trouble. Well, anything can happen, I was told in the special services, people slip in the bathroom or cross the road in the wrong place...

- Commander: Are you from this Galaxy?
- UFO: 1 flash of light
- Commander: Do you have friendly intentions??
- UFO: 1 flash of light
- Commander. Is this a manned ship?
- UFO: 1 flash of light

I can only name the first three questions I asked this UFO:

They were from our galaxy, they were friendly, but they were worried about our nuclear technology.

Then the UFO flew away. Just flew away. We've landed. I was summoned to Colonel Antonio Aleo Padrini, at that time responsible for network alerting and monitoring in Barcelona.

The lieutenant colonel asked me a lot about the UFO encounter. At that time, the military was very open and informed me that the commander of the Air Force was aware of what had happened and that the Siesta, Samba, Kansas, and Embargo air surveillance radars had detected three unknown objects that had been moving in unison with my plane for some time.

Even the Bolero radar in Constantina, Seville, was able to detect the objects. It was even documented: they showed me the radar data and I even asked them to give me this paper copy of the radar data and they gave it to me with the condition not to distribute this information.

After the incident began to leak to the press, Lieutenant
Colonel Ugarte, along with another military man, came to my house in Madrid and demanded to immediately give up "What you have and what does not belong to you." I was forced to give up the very records from the radars on which the approach of this UFO to my plane was recorded.

But it was too late and the incident went beyond secrecy, and the press eventually found out about it. To me from the magazine La Actualidad Española, and I told them everything I knew. At that time, General Lacalle was the Minister of Aviation. And he said, " No, people aren't ready for this yet. We can't tell them that"

The case became official. An investigator was assigned to the case, and the press was informed (in an official note) "that the pilots had seen the planet, Venus."

That's all. What could I do? We told you what we saw, but try to prove something. The co-pilot became the commander of an airliner and does he want to risk his career? No one wants to risk their career or their life.

I am convinced that it was something reasonable. You know, the funny thing is, before all this happened to me, I didn't believe in UFOs. I was very amused by this topic and those people who believed in UFOs were also amused... And now I know for sure that THEY are there, in our heaven.

Given what they are, what unattainable and incomprehensible technological capabilities they have, I have no doubt that these are spaceships from other worlds.

Will the day come when our civilization will realize that we are visited by intelligent and super-technological beings?
