Philip Shepherdson has revealed the encounter he says he experienced near York in North Yorkshire.

He was driving a scooter on country lanes near Easingwold, when he turned left towards Huby, and was distracted by something.

He said: "I looked to my left and my heart flipped at what I saw. Hovering in a corner of a small field was a black triangular shaped object.

"I stopped to get a better look not believing what I was seeing."

"By the side of the craft I now realised there were two more slim looking figures who too wore black overalls and they were trying to push the vehicle into the next field perhaps to conceal it amongst the standing crop.

"They abruptly stopped to look in my direction; the cockpit figure too, turned to gaze at me.

"I felt transfixed with fear. I was shaking. The silence was stifling as we gazed at each other and I felt some form of contact taking place but I just don’t know what that was.

“Time appeared to stop."

He added: "Suddenly my mind couldn’t take anymore and I got on my bike and took off to work.

"I don’t remember getting there, in fact everything after that seemed surreal. I appeared to forget the experience as if told that this was something I shouldn’t have witnessed.

"What struck me at the time was this was nuts and bolts technology, no fuzzy lights with a smudgy image.

"I freaked at the fact that an aircraft floating like a silent kite with not a blade of grass out of place and without jets, was way beyond our technology."

The event took place in February 1979, but only now has Mr Shepherdson had the courage to come forward and seek out other witnesses.

He said: "I know it’s a long time since my encounter but I would like to take this opportunity to appeal for other possible witnesses to this event to come forward.

"I have often wished that I had approached the farmer on whose land this happened, but I never did.

"Who knows, perhaps there is someone out there who saw this like I did and they too have waited all this time and have said nothing." Source: http://www.express.co.uk
