The second of February 1970 was a very unusual day for pilots of the seventy-first interceptor fighter squadron US Air Force. Pilots who served on Malmstrom’s Montana air base encountered a startling a phenomenon that defies rational explanation.
Pilot Gary Faust, performing at an altitude of twelve and a half kilometers practicing air combat maneuvers, suddenly entered flat corkscrew. The military tried to return control to single supersonic aircraft “Convair F-106 Delta Dart” and even revealed fighter parachute, but to no avail. The car inexorably fell down, and at a height of about four and a half kilometers Faust catapulted. Situation of course abnormal, but, it would seem, nothing supernatural. But listen to what happened next.
Mystic plane
When the pilot catapulted, the plane suddenly decisively lowered the nose itself easily came out of the tailspin. According to the official version, This was facilitated by a sharp decrease in the weight of the fighter jet pressure from the catapult, displacement of the center of gravity and others aerodynamic tricks. However, many eyewitnesses to this a phenomenal phenomenon came up with the idea that in the car there is a real ghost masterfully managing the helm.

The story did not end there. Gary Faust landing on snowy February expanses, quickly saved the Indians. what concerns his aircraft, then the latter is still some time lived his life, shocking the military and the police to the depths souls. At a speed of one hundred and seventy-five knots, the plane flew into side of vast farm land. Some time later the device made a turn and landed perfectly on one of the legumes fields without having in the cockpit. Landing empty “Convair F-106 “Delta Dart” even deftly passed the wall that an inexperienced pilot the helm could easily demolish.

The landowner who owned the land immediately called the police and said that he was attacked by fighters. Local sheriff Of course, I didn’t believe it much, but still I went to the call with their people. Law enforcement officers were amazed when they saw in snow-covered field military aircraft with the engine still running. There was no pilot and his seat in the cockpit, but the instruments were busy winked with lights, and the radar continued to scan the terrain.

As if not wanting to fall into the hands of people, the plane suddenly made a sharp jerk, but only stuck in deep snow. The sheriff began call all higher authorities and information quickly reached airbases. The fighter continued to attempt slip away – the snow beneath it from time to time melted, and the car I made new jerks forward, always scaring people away. However, two hours later the plane ran out of fuel, and he “gave up to the authorities. ”

The independent “Convair F-106 Delta Dart” was repaired and he flew another sixteen years, however, already without mystical incidents. Apparently the point here is not in the plane itself, but in the possible the ghost that dwelt in him then. Mystical today the fighter is in one of the hangars of the National Air Force Museum USA.
