One of these programs dealt with an Aussie pilot who had an encounter with a ufo near Melbourne, back in the late 1970's. One of the pilots last comments were " this is not an aircraft."

As you may know, that would have been the Valentich disappearance in 1978.
I gave a number of links and documents in relation to that incident in Section J of a thread about Australian UFO files I uploaded as searchable PDFs.
This sighting has been covered in various UFO documentaries, including this one:
His disappearance also is covered in the footage in the videos below (made available by Diane of AUFORN)
This incident came fifth in an online poll conducted in March/April 2006 by Paul Kimball of “the UFO case with the ‘best evidence’ ever”. As part of a survey of various researchers of the “most evidential” UFO case, British ufologists Robert Rosamond and John Spencer produced a joint response which discussed this incident. This incident is Case 35 in my Top 100 article based on frequency of discussion in UFO books, since this case was referred to in 62 of the books covered by that article.
