UFOs in the daily Press:

In some cases, flying saucers are nothing more than trails left in the sky by "Stratojets"

Vienne, 20. -- A "STRATOJET" AIRCRAFT, WHICH FLIES DAILY OVER THE RHONE VALLEY AT AN ALTITUDE OF ABOUT 10,000 METERS, WAS MISTAKEN YESTERDAY BY SOME PEOPLE FOR A FLYING SAUCER.

THE PRESIDENT AND INSTRUCTOR OF THE VIENNA AERO CLUB IMMEDIATELY DISPELLED THE ILLUSIONS OF THE OVERLY IMAGINATIVE WITNESSES, BUT A strange phenomenon occurred after the passage of the powerful jet aircraft. Indeed, in the sky, parachute-like forms appeared, moving in bizarre ways and resembling light veils, which soon reached the ground.

The witnesses picked up this material, which was very soft to the touch and somewhat resembled rubber in consistency. Upon reaching the ground, it evaporated—probably due to the temperature.

One of the witnesses placed a small amount of the substance in a box and had it photographed immediately. A few hours later, what remained in this supposedly airtight box had also evaporated.

This phenomenon, caused by the condensation in the rarefied and cold atmosphere of certain fuel components from the "Stratojet," can produce white or iridescent formations moving at high speed and altitude, and may thus lead to more or less fanciful interpretations.

This observation, made above the Vienna airfield, is identical to one previously reported by a resident of Oloron. This could explain not all the signs seen in the sky, but a certain number of them.
