Summary:

In his 1954 book "Flying Saucers Uncensored", British ufologist Harold T. Wilkins spoke of "mysterious explosions" in May and July 1954.

He said that something like a jet plane in flames fell into the sea off Brest, although no plane was in the sky; and he assured that the RAF could not clear up this mystery.
