I think that this is more disinformation. Such an even would have been recorded in several papers, caught on cell phone, photographed by camera etc. Considering that I have called people to see a comet the whole of Crawley could have been woken up to see a real UFO. 45 minutes of UFO landing is like 45 days to me!

I was amazed that he did not press him further. If this was a news item late at night there will be a record of it somewhere .A ufo preventing aircraft from landing and taking off would have been a huge story.Why if true ,was it buried??

UFO 'near miss' at Gatwick
Among the most bizarre encounters was a 'high risk' near miss between a Boeing 737 and a unidentified object at Gatwick on July 15, 1991.
According to the secret government report, a pilot coming in to land saw a 'small black lozenge-shaped object' 500 metres ahead of his aircraft and at the same altitude.

Gatwick Airport, London - January 31st 2002, 5:00am.
A retired telecom engineer Jerry Horlan, stood in his Broadfield kitchen, and he was gripped by an eerie sense that he was not alone. He was astounded to see a circle of strange lights hovering over the south side of Gatwick Airport. He explained: "I had been up all night and was just making myself a cup of coffee when I saw something very strange out of the window.
"Hovering over the south side of the airport were 12 bright lights circling slowly round. I just could not believe what I was witnessing." The father of two tracked the objects for more than an hour until dawn began to break, and the lights slowly moved away from the airport and disappeared.
Mr. Horlan, 58, who lives in Farnham Close, Broadfield, continued: "It was a unique experience. I have travelled all around the world and never seen anything like that before. "I am not saying it was definitely a UFO but it would be good to get some sort of explanation to account for what I saw."
The skies over Gatwick Airport have seen a number of close encounters over the years with witnesses reporting seven suspected UFO sightings alone in the summer of 1996. This prompted sky watcher Larry Dean, from Brighton's Skysearch agency to suggest aliens were watching Gatwick to study earthly air travel.
Government officials and BAA have continued to dismiss these strange events and refused to recognise the existence of UFOs. Commenting on the latest spotting, a BAA spokesman said: "We have run a check and can report nothing out of the ordinary at that time, but we have passed the information on to air traffic control which is looking into it."
