| 49307 | Do you know the reason why? |
| 49307 | Have you ever had such an offer? |
| 49307 | Since you have decided to take up the automobile business, the question naturally arises,"Where can I learn it the best? |
| 49307 | So what does it mean? |
| 49307 | and after I have learned it, which school is in better shape to help me to get a good paying position?" |
| 21708 | Are we at the end of our reverses? |
| 21708 | Godard, Nadar, all of us, called out frequently to the people below,` Where are we?'' |

| 51481 | Why not? |
| 51481 | Why so Many Sails? |
| 51481 | Why, then, not combine the types? |
| 51481 | Would the largest Dreadnought, exposed unaided to the attack of 16,000 flying machines, be in an entirely enviable situation? |
| 23581 | Now you are in a gentle turn-- feel that breeze on your cheek? 23581 What is an airplane?" |

| 19911 | Are goings- on such as these nonsense? |
| 19911 | But are they incapable of solution? |
| 19911 | But the question finally arises: Is the nature of space such that the traditional American concept of private enterprise can have no place in it? |
| 19911 | Do they only stick together because some sticky substance is holding them, or are there other reasons? |
| 19911 | How about experimental stations for the simulation of space environments? |

| 21791 | Am I on my right course? 21791 And now, please, will you explain your duties?" |
| 21791 | And what can the Pilot do to save such a situation as that? |
| 21791 | And who on earth are they? |
| 21791 | But who in the name of blue sky is this? |
| 21791 | Discipline is it? |
| 21791 | Do you think you''re the only one with troubles? 21791 Elongate, you little devils, would you?" |
| 21791 | How do you like the machine? |
| 21791 | Ignition off? |
| 21791 | Is this what you mean? |
| 21791 | Jolly good gliding angle,says someone; and another,"Beautifully quick controls, what?" |
| 21791 | Oh, now I begin to see light,said she;"but just exactly how does it work?" |
| 21791 | Petrol on? |
| 21791 | Suppose we think about finishing it now? 21791 That''s quite clear, though rather unexpected; but how do you counteract the effect of the gusts when they try to overturn the Aeroplane sideways?" |
| 21791 | That''s very pretty,said the Observer,"but how about Mechanical Difficulties, and Efficiency in respect of Flight? |
| 21791 | The real thing, is it? |
| 21791 | Well, what result? |
| 21791 | What can the Rudder have to do with you? |
| 21791 | What''s going to happen to us then? 21791 Whatever do you mean?" |
| 21791 | You''ll never leave me now, when at last there is no one between us? |
| 21791 | A strain on the Pilot? |
| 21791 | And Efficiency, blushing very prettily at the compliment, then asked,"And how does the Centre of Gravity affect matters?" |
| 21791 | And Efficiency, smiling and blushing, but practical as ever, says:"And you will never throw those Compromises in my face?" |
| 21791 | And a body to fix them in, and tanks for oil and petrol, and a tail, and,"archly,"one of those dashing young Pilots, what?" |
| 21791 | And now will you tell me, please, how the greatest Speed may be secured?" |
| 21791 | And the Blackboard obligingly showed them as follows:[ Illustration]"Well, what do you think of that?" |
| 21791 | And the Fabric''s quite mixed in its mind, and ejaculates,"Now, who would have thought I got more Lift from the top of the Surface than its bottom?" |
| 21791 | And then truculently to the Distance Pieces, which run from rib to rib,"Just keep the Ribs from rolling, will you? |
| 21791 | And then--"Contact?" |
| 21791 | And what''s the use of grousing? |
| 21791 | And"How is the Engine running?" |
| 21791 | And, anyway, why has n''t such an obvious thing been done already?" |
| 21791 | Anxiously he wondered"Are tunnels always straight?" |
| 21791 | But what is this stream of bad language from the Exhaust Pipe, accompanied by gouts of smoke and vapour? |
| 21791 | But what''s this? |
| 21791 | Ca n''t I do better than that?" |
| 21791 | Can I see a good landing- ground within gliding distance?" |
| 21791 | Dear me, there are a lot more of us to- day, are n''t there? |
| 21791 | Deserted, did I say? |
| 21791 | Do n''t you think I ought to have a glimmering of them too?" |
| 21791 | Had n''t we better get the engine and body covers off, just in case it''s really so?" |
| 21791 | Have n''t I been through it too? |
| 21791 | Have n''t they been my life ever since I began striving for you ten long years ago?" |
| 21791 | How are we going to keep our adjustments upon which good flying depends?" |
| 21791 | How can I describe them? |
| 21791 | How does that suit you?" |
| 21791 | Invading the realms of fancy? |
| 21791 | It really begins to look something like the real thing, eh?" |
| 21791 | Just thrust that chalk along, will you? |
| 21791 | Lives there the man who can adequately describe this Wonder? |
| 21791 | Now do you see? |
| 21791 | Now where can that lake be which the map shows so plainly? |
| 21791 | Now which is it to be?" |
| 21791 | Now who''s Master?" |
| 21791 | Oh, where is he who will invent a contrivance to keep me supplied with air of right density and quality? |
| 21791 | Special Reserve, you say? |
| 21791 | The point is, you press a button and----""Look here,"said a Strut, rather pointedly,"where do you think you are going, anyway?" |
| 21791 | There will have to be an Engine and Propeller, wo n''t there? |
| 21791 | Turning to the Flight- Sergeant he inquires,"Tanks full of petrol and oil?" |
| 21791 | What did he do? |
| 21791 | What do you say?" |
| 21791 | What is that bright silver streak all along the horizon? |
| 21791 | What old hand among them is there who can not instance many a forced landing made pleasant by such hospitality? |
| 21791 | What pilot is there indeed who has not many times experienced such unpleasant sensation? |
| 21791 | What was that? |
| 21791 | What''s your Regiment? |
| 21791 | What_ will_ the Designer say?" |
| 21791 | Where''s Efficiency?" |
| 21791 | Who is bold enough to say what its limits shall be? |
| 21791 | You wo n''t mind showing us your Calculations, Working Drawings, Stress Diagrams, etc., will you?" |
| 21791 | [ 3] Eh?" |
| 21791 | [ Footnote 12: Getting out of my depth? |
| 21791 | [ Illustration] But Efficiency, growing rather critical with her newly gained knowledge, cried out:"But where''s the horizontal Tail Surface? |
| 21791 | [ Illustration]"And now,"said Efficiency,"I have only to meet the Ailerons and the Rudder, have n''t I?" |
| 21791 | cry all the Wires in unison,"have n''t we got our troubles too? |
| 21791 | despairingly call the Planes;"it''s eloping with the Lift, and what in the name of Gravity will happen? |
| 42344 | And the damages? |
| 42344 | Are you not afraid? |
| 42344 | Can not you yield to accomplished facts? 42344 Do we dare strike matches in the basket of a spherical balloon?" |
| 42344 | Do we even permit ourselves the solace of a cigarette on trips that last for many hours? |
| 42344 | Does a fish float on the surface? 42344 Have you been much in the sun, Luis?" |
| 42344 | Or why should not circular blocks of wood be fixed at the four corners of the drag?... 42344 Pedro,"said Luis,"do you remember your objections to my waggon wheels?" |
| 42344 | Pedro,said Luis,"will not men some day invent a ship to sail in the sky?" |
| 42344 | Shall you come to the review in it? |
| 42344 | Then why should I be in need of gas? |
| 42344 | These round things? |
| 42344 | What am I going to see and know in a few minutes? 42344 What country is this?" |
| 42344 | What is coming next? |
| 42344 | What navigates the water? 42344 What screw propeller could hold a course against it? |
| 42344 | What would you have? |
| 42344 | What would you suggest? |
| 42344 | Why not devise a better means of transport than the backs of horses and of oxen? |
| 42344 | With smoke coming from fire in it, as from the locomotive? |
| 42344 | Would you have the courage to be taken up in the free air- ship with no one holding its guide rope? |
| 42344 | You want to make an ascent? |
| 42344 | ...."To the locomotive engine?" |
| 42344 | ...."To the steamboat?" |
| 42344 | 12] How is this danger to be met? |
| 42344 | 15]"Can we not give you some gas?" |
| 42344 | 7"] How is this interior pressure maintained without being exceeded? |
| 42344 | 9,"I asked:"Does any little boy want to go up?" |
| 42344 | And before my experiments succeeded, were they not all called impossible? |
| 42344 | And of these 26 arriving at Berlin how many do you imagine made the trip without serious accident? |
| 42344 | And what would there be to prevent the power waggon slipping off the rails even then?" |
| 42344 | And your wheels-- do you imagine they would take hold of so liquid a thing as water?" |
| 42344 | And, breaking, might it not explode? |
| 42344 | Are you sure you have the courage? |
| 42344 | Did I need anything? |
| 42344 | Do the cords commanding rudder, motor, water ballast, and the shifting guide rope work freely? |
| 42344 | Does man fly? |
| 42344 | Does man fly? |
| 42344 | Does not the final condemnation of the common- sense Pedro continue to weigh on me? |
| 42344 | Does the bird fly? |
| 42344 | Does the bird fly? |
| 42344 | Free from the steadying influence of the solid ground, would the jumping motor jar itself until it broke? |
| 42344 | Had I not let out gas? |
| 42344 | Has man ever accomplished anything worth having except by combating Nature? |
| 42344 | How could I justify the spending of it to my parents? |
| 42344 | How shall I describe it? |
| 42344 | I cried:"Have I won?" |
| 42344 | I quote from it as a matter of curiosity:"... Do you remember the time, my dear Alberto, when we played together''Pigeon flies!''? |
| 42344 | I said to myself:"What has the rigidity of the balloon''s form to do with danger from a petroleum motor? |
| 42344 | In spite of their great simplicity my air- ships require constant surveillance on a few capital heads: Is the balloon properly filled? |
| 42344 | In the first place, why should one not light a match in the basket of a spherical balloon? |
| 42344 | Is the ballast properly weighed? |
| 42344 | Is the motor in condition? |
| 42344 | Is the rigging in condition? |
| 42344 | Is there any possibility of a leak? |
| 42344 | Now is it not curious that those troublesome shifting sieves were the only machines at the coffee works that were not rotary? |
| 42344 | SHOWING RELATIVE SIZE]"You saw me coming all the way from Neuilly,"I replied;"did I throw out any ballast?" |
| 42344 | Tell me, Pedro, how did you come to decide in favour of the bird as against the balloon?" |
| 42344 | What elongated balloon would not double up and take you flying to destruction?" |
| 42344 | What is coming? |
| 42344 | What is the fish that sometimes is seen swimming with its body half way above the surface? |
| 42344 | What ought to give way first? |
| 42344 | What shall I say? |
| 42344 | What was to be done? |
| 42344 | What would mine do in its little basket, that weighed almost nothing, and suspended from a balloon that weighed less than nothing? |
| 42344 | Whom shall I see after I am dead?" |
| 42344 | Why have I sought to win prizes? |
| 42344 | Why was the balloon fluttering an empty end and causing all this extra danger? |
| 42344 | Will the air- ship be able to rise out of rifle range? |
| 42344 | Will the answer come in German, Russian, or Norwegian? |
| 42344 | Would it continually jerk and pull at the silk hems and the thin rods which were to hold my basket to the balloon? |
| 42344 | Would it jar the interior air balloon''s pump and derange the big balloon''s valves? |
| 42344 | Would not the guide rope at least curl itself around some tree and hold us there for hours? |
| 42344 | You know the principle of these motors? |
| 42344 | [ Illustration: THE HOUSETOPS LOOK SO DANGEROUS]"What if I should fall?" |
| 17346 | And who released this big report, anyway? |
| 17346 | Could the Russians develop a flying saucer from their designs? |
| 17346 | Did the Air Force prompt_ Life_ to write the article? |
| 17346 | Does a UFO have to come in and land on your desk at ATIC? |
| 17346 | Does the United States have a secret weapon that is being reported as a UFO? |
| 17346 | Had they had any reports of unidentified lights? |
| 17346 | Have they really thoroughly checked out every report and found that there''s nothing to any of them? |
| 17346 | How did the roots get charred? |
| 17346 | How fast were they going? |
| 17346 | O.K.,I remember his saying,"how much of a layover do you have in Chicago?" |
| 17346 | Then why all of the big show of power against the UFO reports? |
| 17346 | Was it available? |
| 17346 | Was there any noise? |
| 17346 | What are the chances of having two extremely spectacular meteors in the same area, traveling the same direction, only five minutes apart? |
| 17346 | What do you want? |
| 17346 | What happened to those two reports that General------ sent in from Saudi Arabia? 17346 What the devil are green fireballs?" |
| 17346 | What''s the deal? |
| 17346 | Who''s nuts up there? |
| 17346 | Why not assume a point that is more easily proved? |
| 17346 | Why not assume that the C-54 crew, the OD, his driver, and the tower operators did know what they were talking about? 17346 Why not just simply believe that most people know what they saw?" |
| 17346 | Would it compare in size to a light bulb? |

| 17346 | ATIC knew these methods, but how could this be applied to spaceships? |
| 17346 | Airplane? |
| 17346 | All the people in the tower heard Mantell say this and they heard one of the wing men call back and ask,"What the hell are we looking for?" |
| 17346 | And who made these reports? |
| 17346 | Another man cut in,"Remember the thing Jack Adams said he saw down by Memphis?" |
| 17346 | As a double check I called several newspaper editors the other day and asked,"Why do n''t you print more UFO stories?" |
| 17346 | As far as the effect on the human body was concerned, why could n''t these people, whoever they might be, stand these horrible maneuver forces? |
| 17346 | Balloon? |
| 17346 | Birds or light phenomena would n''t make any sound, but how about some object of appreciable size traveling at or above the speed of sound? |
| 17346 | But the most important thing about the_ Life_ article was the question in the minds of so many readers:"Why was it written?" |
| 17346 | But where is this point when it comes to UFO''s? |
| 17346 | CHAPTER SEVENTEEN What Are UFO''s? |
| 17346 | CHAPTER THIRTEEN Hoax or Horror? |
| 17346 | CHAPTER TWENTY Do They or Do n''t They? |
| 17346 | Could Stringfield see it? |
| 17346 | Could a high- altitude jet- stream wind have been blowing the smoke cloud? |
| 17346 | Could the two F-86''s stay in the area a few more minutes? |
| 17346 | Could there have been airplanes in the area that CAA did n''t know about? |
| 17346 | Could they see anything now? |
| 17346 | Did a huge flying wing pass over Albuquerque and travel 250 miles to Lubbock in about fifteen minutes? |
| 17346 | Did the radar station in Washington pick up the same thing? |
| 17346 | Did they ever photograph a UFO? |
| 17346 | Did we have it? |
| 17346 | Do unidentified flying objects exist, or do n''t they?" |
| 17346 | Does a UFO have to land at the River Entrance to the Pentagon, near the Joint Chiefs of Staff offices? |
| 17346 | Does this constitute proof? |
| 17346 | During our previous visit we repeatedly asked the question,"Was the hat burned before you went into the woods?" |
| 17346 | During the past four years the most frequent question I''ve been asked is:"What do you personally think? |
| 17346 | Early the next morning Air Force investigators flooded the area asking_ the_ questions:"What size was it in comparison to a key or a dime?" |
| 17346 | Had the UFO''s caused the excessive radiation? |
| 17346 | Had we studied this to see if there were any similarities between it and the current UFO reporting? |
| 17346 | Has it been heated?" |
| 17346 | Have there been any important developments? |
| 17346 | He kept asking,"What did I see?" |
| 17346 | He said that he knew that I was busy as group leader of my regular group but, if he gave me enough people, could I take Project Grudge? |
| 17346 | He saw the light just as the pilot said,"What''s that?" |
| 17346 | How do you collect interplanetary intelligence? |
| 17346 | How far could it be heard? |
| 17346 | How many different stories do you get when a group of people watch two cars collide at an intersection? |
| 17346 | I went down to the finance office-- could I rent a car and charge it as travel expense? |
| 17346 | If UFO''s were so serious a few months ago, why the sudden debunking? |
| 17346 | If a jet airplane with a silent engine could be built, how much noise would it make? |
| 17346 | If he had a UFO report why had n''t he sent it in to Project Blue Book as he usually did? |
| 17346 | If this alternating magnetic field can heat metal, why did n''t everything the scoutmaster had that was metal get hot enough to burn him? |
| 17346 | In official language it said,"What gives?" |
| 17346 | Is it magnetized? |
| 17346 | Is it proof when a jet pilot fires at a UFO and sticks to his story even under the threat of court- martial? |
| 17346 | Is it radioactive? |
| 17346 | It said,"Are you positive that the Navy junked the XF-5- U-1 project?" |
| 17346 | It was almost a daily occurrence to have people from the"puzzle palace"call and indignantly ask,"Why did you tell them that?" |
| 17346 | One of the most frequent comments we heard was,"Why do all of these radar- visual sightings occur at night?" |
| 17346 | Planet or star? |
| 17346 | Roots charred? |
| 17346 | Should he tell the public"the real truth"--that our skies are loaded with spaceships? |
| 17346 | The F-94 was heading straight for the star Capella, which is low on the horizon and is very brilliant, but what about the radar contacts? |
| 17346 | The at times hotly debated answer to this question may be the answer to the question,"Do the UFO''s really exist?" |
| 17346 | The comments on McLaughlin''s report had been wired back to White Sands from Washington and they were,"What are you drinking out there?" |
| 17346 | The first question that the investigator who answered the phone asked was,"Can you still see it?" |
| 17346 | The hassle over the word"proof"boils down to one question: What constitutes proof? |
| 17346 | The only problem that confronted the people at ATIC was,"Were the UFO''s of Russian or interplanetary origin?" |
| 17346 | The question we asked was,"Is there anything unusual about this machete? |
| 17346 | The question"What did the UFO''s look like?" |
| 17346 | The question,"Do UFO''s exist?" |
| 17346 | The size? |
| 17346 | The title alone,"Have We Visitors from Outer Space?" |
| 17346 | The writers then asked,"If there was a later report they had made why was n''t it used as a conclusion?" |
| 17346 | Then finally Major Sadowski said,"Look, Rupe, are you giving us the straight story on these UFO''s?" |
| 17346 | Then he asked,"What kind of an optical illusion would cause a meteor to appear to make a 90-degree turn?" |
| 17346 | Then someone asked,"What about these recent sightings at Mainbrace?" |
| 17346 | There was a lull in the conversation, then the captain said,"Do you really want to get an opinion about flying saucers?" |
| 17346 | There were several other people in the office, and they greeted me with the usual question,"What''s new on the flying saucer front?" |
| 17346 | To accommodate the writer, the OPI had sent a wire out to ATIC: What is the status of Project Grudge? |
| 17346 | To the dozen almost reverently spoken queries,"Are you Adamski?" |
| 17346 | Was it actually an attempt to go underground-- to make the project more secretive? |
| 17346 | Was the Air Force telling the truth about UFO''s? |
| 17346 | What are you guys trying to pull, anyway?" |
| 17346 | What did he have? |
| 17346 | What did the pilots think it was? |
| 17346 | What did these people actually see when they reported that they had observed a UFO? |
| 17346 | What do they want for proof? |
| 17346 | What do you think he saw?" |
| 17346 | What flies 18 miles above the earth? |
| 17346 | What flies faster than a jet? |
| 17346 | What had the two pilots and their passenger seen? |
| 17346 | What made these people so sure that UFO''s existed? |
| 17346 | What should he do? |
| 17346 | What the devil_ are_ green fireballs? |
| 17346 | What was it? |
| 17346 | What was it? |
| 17346 | What was it? |
| 17346 | What was it? |
| 17346 | What was the answer? |
| 17346 | What_ had_ happened at this fighter base? |
| 17346 | When Dr. La Paz had finished, I had one last question,"What do you think they are?" |
| 17346 | When I finished reading, the intelligence officer''s first comment was,"What do you think?" |
| 17346 | When Jim Phalen had read the rest of the report he asked,"What was it?" |
| 17346 | When he found we were from ATIC, his first question was,"What ever happened to the green fireballs?" |
| 17346 | Why all the mystery? |
| 17346 | Why ca n''t experienced pilots recognize a balloon when they see one? |
| 17346 | Why did Mantell, an experienced pilot, try to go to 20,000 feet when he did n''t even have an oxygen mask? |
| 17346 | Why had it been sloughed off so lightly? |
| 17346 | Why judge them by earthly standards? |
| 17346 | Why the sudden change in policy they wondered? |
| 17346 | Why, when you have to make an assumption to get an answer to a report, do you always pick the assumption that proves the UFO''s do n''t exist?" |
| 17346 | You know the sort of sick, empty feeling you get when it''s all over? |
| 17346 | and,"Had the cap been ironed?" |
| 17346 | movie film when the balloon is 30,000 feet away?" |
| 17346 | substantiate or refute the story?" |
| 5883 | ''Look, Don,said Splitt,"why do you want to fool with that saucer business? |
| 5883 | And Gorman was chasing a lighted balloon? |
| 5883 | Any idea why? |
| 5883 | Anybody chase it? |
| 5883 | Anybody suggest it was a balloon? |
| 5883 | Are those orders still in force? |
| 5883 | Are you really taking this seriously? |
| 5883 | Are you still working on the saucers? |
| 5883 | Are you sure about this? |
| 5883 | Armed? |
| 5883 | But you still ca n''t quite accept it? |
| 5883 | Could you make out the shape? |
| 5883 | Did Boal get to see them? |
| 5883 | Did he say what it looked like? |
| 5883 | Did it help you any? |
| 5883 | Did it leave any smoke behind it? |
| 5883 | Did n''t the Eighth Air Force investigate the foo fighters? |
| 5883 | Did they believe you? |
| 5883 | Did you hear any guesses about it, or reports later on? |
| 5883 | Did you see the picture? |
| 5883 | Do n''t tell me you believe it? |
| 5883 | Do n''t tell me you believe the things are real? |
| 5883 | Do the Godman Field witnesses-- Colonel Hix and the rest-- believe the Venus answer? |
| 5883 | Does Shallett''s first piece mention Mantell''s death? |
| 5883 | Even Mantell''s? 5883 Foo fighters?" |
| 5883 | Have the papers caught it yet? |
| 5883 | Have you read the Project''Saucer''ideas on space travel? |
| 5883 | Have you seen the Post this week? |
| 5883 | How about a look at the Intelligence report? |
| 5883 | How about clearing me with Project''Saucer''? |
| 5883 | How are they powered? 5883 How big do you think it was?" |
| 5883 | How do I know? 5883 How''d the Air Force expect anybody to believe that answer?" |
| 5883 | I hate to break this up; it''s a fascinating business What about coming in Friday? 5883 I suppose all those pilots and Godman Field officers were hypnotized? |
| 5883 | I''m positive they saw the light-- but what the devil was it? 5883 If all this stuff is bunk, why keep the lid on it?" |
| 5883 | If it was, do you think we''d be ordering pilots to chase the damned things? |
| 5883 | If it''s British,I said,"do you think we should even hint at it?" |
| 5883 | If it''s just a cloud shadow, why ca n''t I see it? |
| 5883 | If we had such an advanced design,said Redell,"and I just do n''t believe it possible-- would we gamble on a remote- control system? |
| 5883 | Is n''t that your idea? 5883 Maybe not,"said Jack,"but why would they want to plant this foo- fighter idea?" |
| 5883 | Mind telling me who told you I was on it? |
| 5883 | Mr. Keyhoe? 5883 Not knowing the thing''s height, how could they judge accurately?" |
| 5883 | Or an Air Force secret? |
| 5883 | Suppose you had one with a stationary center, and a large circular section rotating around it? 5883 Swallowing is partly gravity, is n''t it?" |
| 5883 | Tell me this: Did Shallett get to see any secret files at Wright Field? |
| 5883 | That''s the Post''s answer? |
| 5883 | Then he had to take the Air Force word for everything? |
| 5883 | Then the announcement was n''t caused by True''s article? |
| 5883 | Then they''ve got all the answers now? |
| 5883 | Then who''s launching them now? |
| 5883 | Then you''re not worried about that angle any more? |
| 5883 | This order you mentioned-- is it for all Air Force pilots, or special fighter units? |
| 5883 | Was n''t that some kind of antiaircraft missile fired from the ground? |
| 5883 | Was there any shape outlined behind the light? |
| 5883 | What about a rotating disk? |
| 5883 | What about eating? |
| 5883 | What about maneuvering? |
| 5883 | What about that Eastern Airlines sighting? |
| 5883 | What about the Chiles- Whitted case? |
| 5883 | What about trying to bring one down? 5883 What are you working on now?" |
| 5883 | What did he find out? |
| 5883 | What did it look like? |
| 5883 | What did they find out? |
| 5883 | What do you think the saucers are? |
| 5883 | What do you think they are? |
| 5883 | What do you think? |
| 5883 | What do you want to know? |
| 5883 | What happens to those reports? |
| 5883 | What new facts did they learn? |
| 5883 | What pictures? |
| 5883 | What sold you? |
| 5883 | What was the word Mantell used--''tremendous''? |
| 5883 | What would happen? |
| 5883 | What would you do if you found it was n''t a Soviet missile? |
| 5883 | What''s that? |
| 5883 | What''s the Air Force answer? |
| 5883 | What''s the chance of seeing your Project''Saucer''files? |
| 5883 | What''s the disks''ceiling? |
| 5883 | Where did you hear that? |
| 5883 | Which one? |
| 5883 | Who is it? |
| 5883 | Who wrote the Post story? |
| 5883 | Why ask me? 5883 Why ca n''t you accept my word there''s nothing to the saucers?" |
| 5883 | Why did they recheck, after fifteen months? |
| 5883 | Why do n''t you just reverse it-- list what we intend to do when we start exploring space? 5883 Why do n''t you look into the Gorman case? |
| 5883 | Why not? |
| 5883 | Why the quick change? |
| 5883 | Why, what''s up? |
| 5883 | Would the British risk a hundred- foot disk crashing in some American city? |
| 5883 | Yes, but what? |
| 5883 | You believe Venus is the true answer? |
| 5883 | You believe it.? |
| 5883 | You do n''t believe that? |
| 5883 | You heard anything? |
| 5883 | You know anything about it? |
| 5883 | You know the Air Institute? |
| 5883 | You mean a trick of ours? |
| 5883 | You mean it was transparent? 5883 You mean its contradicting the Post?" |
| 5883 | You mean like an engine, or a jet? |
| 5883 | You mean ordered by the Air Force or the companies? |
| 5883 | You mean the ones who''ve sighted things? 5883 You mean the whole thing was planted?" |
| 5883 | You mean they refused to let me see their files? |
| 5883 | You mean you know the answer? |
| 5883 | You probably know I''m a syndicate writer? |
| 5883 | You think all the mechanism was hidden by the light? |
| 5883 | You think it''s a Russian missile? |
| 5883 | You think there could be any truth in the British story? |
| 5883 | You think we did n''t try? 5883 You''re sure he was n''t kidding Miles?" |
| 5883 | You''ve heard of the Mantell case? |
| 5883 | ''What do you think?" |
| 5883 | A leaking balloon? |
| 5883 | Also on Mantell, Gorman, and the Eastern Airlines cases? |
| 5883 | And the Godman Field officers''?" |
| 5883 | And the flying disks? |
| 5883 | And those two- foot disks--""You have n''t worked on the Gorman case?" |
| 5883 | And what about the Press Club angle? |
| 5883 | And what killed Mantell? |
| 5883 | And what were they doing here? |
| 5883 | Arid who had told him about me? |
| 5883 | Army, Navy, and Air Force missiles, launched in droves all over the country to prove whose was the best? |
| 5883 | Assuming that space travel was the solution-- which I still could n''t believe- what would be the effect on the world? |
| 5883 | B-29 FAILS TO CATCH OBJECT Flying saucer? |
| 5883 | But how about locating them from out in space, with a ship moving at great speed? |
| 5883 | But if it were a secret device, would it be tested so publicly that thousands would see it? |
| 5883 | But in that case, why had the program been announced at all? |
| 5883 | But what about the breath you exhale? |
| 5883 | But why were we tipped off in advance?" |
| 5883 | But why would they give us a two- year warning, testing the things openly over America? |
| 5883 | By the way, when you were on the Star did you handle anything on''foo fighters''?" |
| 5883 | CAN YOU TAKE OVER WASHINGTON END? |
| 5883 | Certainly, they could have automatic devices to make them veer away from airliners-- but what if a circuit failed?" |
| 5883 | Could I see the complete file on that case? |
| 5883 | Could it be a Navy experiment, kept secret from the Air Force? |
| 5883 | Could this be merely an attempt to pump me and get a lead on True''s investigation? |
| 5883 | Did n''t they draw some sketches that matched Arnold''s? |
| 5883 | Did that include National Guard pilots? |
| 5883 | Do you know about the White Sands sightings in April 1948? |
| 5883 | Either{ p. 20} Way, why did they rush this contradiction the minute the Post hit the stands?" |
| 5883 | Even if it were a smoke screen, what of those old reports? |
| 5883 | Ever hear of''dead distance''?" |
| 5883 | Fifty years ago, what would they have said if someone had predicted this flight? |
| 5883 | Glancing down from the plane''s window, I thought: How does this look to them? |
| 5883 | Had Mantell told Godman Tower more than the Air Force admitted? |
| 5883 | Has Project"Saucer"released its secret pictures? |
| 5883 | Have any reports been received at Wright Field since Project"Saucer"closed? |
| 5883 | He gave me a curious look,"Where''d you get that idea about the camber?" |
| 5883 | How could it fly without some kind of airfoil?" |
| 5883 | How could they control them that far away-- and be sure they would n''t crash, where somebody could get a look and dope out the secret?" |
| 5883 | How many editors would wade through a six- thousand- word government report? |
| 5883 | How would a spaceman react if he saw a Broadway show? |
| 5883 | How would we react to a sudden appearance of space ships, bringing that higher race to the earth? |
| 5883 | If it was some weird experimental craft or a guided missile, then whose was it? |
| 5883 | If it''s all bunk, why have n''t they closed Project''Saucer''?" |
| 5883 | If the Air Force or the Navy did have a secret missile, what better way to distract attention? |
| 5883 | If they had, what was back of it{ p. 162}--what was back of releasing all of these telltale case summaries? |
| 5883 | In the Kenneth Arnold case, did n''t some forest rangers verify his report? |
| 5883 | Is that right? |
| 5883 | Is that the official Air Force answer?" |
| 5883 | Is there any reason I should n''t see them? |
| 5883 | It ran another front- page story, headlined: WHAT DO YOU MEAN ONLY VAPOR TRAIL? |
| 5883 | Looking down, I thought: What would a spaceman think, seeing this brilliantly lighted city, the towering skyscrapers? |
| 5883 | More than once, during this investigation, I had been asked:"If the saucers are interplanetary, why have n''t they landed here? |
| 5883 | Not to mention several thousand people at Madisonville and Fort Knox?" |
| 5883 | Or had the Air Force deliberately left this report in the file? |
| 5883 | Or perhaps a scout craft from Mars? |
| 5883 | Or was it part of some carefully thought- out plan? |
| 5883 | Redell frowned into space for a few seconds,"You say that Fairfield Suisan sighting{ p. 90} was on December third? |
| 5883 | Secret experimental plane? |
| 5883 | The Tucson Daily Citizen ran the story next day with a double- banner headline: FLYING SAUCER OVER TUCSON? |
| 5883 | The first piece hits the stands-- and then what happens?" |
| 5883 | The ones Commander R. B. McLaughlin has written up? |
| 5883 | The question is, could such disks fit specific sightings like the one at Godman Field and the case at Fargo?" |
| 5883 | Then 375 is the total figure-- I mean the number of cases Project"Saucer"listed? |
| 5883 | Then he said abruptly:"You know anything about the disks?" |
| 5883 | Then what was the mysterious object? |
| 5883 | There were 722 cases in all, were n''t there? |
| 5883 | Was it an incredible slip- up? |
| 5883 | Was music a part of spacemen''s lives, or would it be something new and strange, perhaps completely distasteful? |
| 5883 | Was n''t he chasing a balloon?" |
| 5883 | Was this a slip? |
| 5883 | Was this just a wandering discussion of possibilities, badly put together, or was it a hint of the truth? |
| 5883 | Were any of those planes armed? |
| 5883 | What did the Muroc test pilots really see that day? |
| 5883 | What did they mean by that? |
| 5883 | What do you suppose they''re really like?" |
| 5883 | What fuel do they use?" |
| 5883 | What if a space ship should suddenly come down over a big city-- say New York-- low enough for millions of people to see it?" |
| 5883 | What if it had been thrown at me in black headlines? |
| 5883 | What if your ship''s controls went haywire and the thing blew up over a crowded city? |
| 5883 | What pictures? |
| 5883 | What was it?" |
| 5883 | What was the answer? |
| 5883 | What was this New Jersey case? |
| 5883 | What were they like? |
| 5883 | What would Philadelphians of 1776 have thought to see this DC-6 flying across their city at three hundred miles an hour? |
| 5883 | What would be the net effect of making contact with beings from a distant planet? |
| 5883 | What would that do to your heart?" |
| 5883 | What would the sentries at Valley Forge have done, a year later, if this lighted airliner had streaked over their heads? |
| 5883 | What would the space people be like? |
| 5883 | What would their purpose be? |
| 5883 | Where would they come in?" |
| 5883 | Who would be the best authority to check our disk operation theory and give us more details on directional control? |
| 5883 | Why had Major Boggs given me those answers, when these books would flatly refute them? |
| 5883 | Why had the Air Force lifted its secrecy on these case summaries? |
| 5883 | Why had they been observing the earth so intensively in the past few years? |
| 5883 | Why have n''t their crews tried to make contact with us?" |
| 5883 | Why should we believe such creative intelligence was limited to the earth? |
| 5883 | Why was McLaughlin, a regular Navy officer subject to security screening, permitted to give out this story? |
| 5883 | Would Americans come to accept space travel as matter- of- factly as the people now boarding this plane? |
| 5883 | Would earthlings be terrified,{ p. 56} or, if it seemed a peaceful exploration, would we bc intrigued by the thought of a great adventure? |
| 5883 | Would other planets have such cities, or would it be something new and puzzling to a visitor from space? |
| 5883 | Would they be peaceful or hostile? |
| 5883 | Would they be similar to men and women on earth, or some fearsome Buck Rogerish creatures who would terrify the average American-- including myself? |
| 5883 | You know what Mantell was chasing? |
| 5883 | You remember Gorman described an odd fuzziness around the edge of the light? |
| 5883 | You think those are your flying saucers?" |
| 5883 | { p. 126} Which planet will be explored first, after the moon? |
| 5883 | { p. 136} What would they be like? |
