Chilliwack BC UFO sighting this week

www.canada.com...

there has been a couple of sightings in Chilliwack over the last 6 months. the last sighting was of a big black pyramid shaped object. Mind you I believe there is a Canadian Forces base there also.

"McCubbin describes the object as a hang glider shape, but about the size of a small airplane, and white with dark ridges running from nose to tail. She says the object was silent and glowing. It circled overhead, underneath the low-lying clouds, and then flew west toward Vancouver."

I live in B.C. and I've heard about a bit of a surge in Ufo related phenomena here. Maybe Aliens found out about Canadian beer? The Liqour Stores must be saved! But seriously, anyone hear of any activiy rond the Centeral Interior, I've been trying to film a Ufo for months now, following hotspots

I'm going to keep a check on the Earthquake activity your way. Sometimes activity picks up in areas where something is about to happen.

I have been checking Vancover Island and Inland for Earthquakes. IRIS said one time that if a quake hit inland and they (named the town) with a 5.5 /higher that the land being made of what it is would sink and the area was I believe heavily populated.

IRIS stated that the time has passed in that area for such an event but I have been still checking it the last 2 months. The highest quake has only been in the mid-4 range.

CFB Chilliwack has been closed since 1995.

Hmmm, just maybe it was a glider then. I live between Vancouver and Chilliwack, there are number of places that offer hang gliding / para gliding around here. So it doesn't seem so improbable that it could have been one. I read on another link where she says that gliders can't make tight circles nor rise in altitude, which is wrong. They can and they do. When a glider hits a thermal, they tend to circle within it and rise in altitude. The more I read about it, the more it sounds like a glider. It seems to have all the signs of one anyway.

I'll disagree with you on that issue. ASU Chilliwack is a large hub for the Reserve Forces. Keep in mind though it's an Army Reserve support facility and has a few Regular Force members there as well as Reserve Force members.

I know this because I was attached posted there 3 years ago.

There arn't any air assets there either.

try to keep in mind that this sighting occured at night around 12:30 am (00:30hrs) and to my knowledge not many people, if any, go hang gliding at night in cloudy weather especially in that area of chilliwack, which, near the ucfv campus is roughly 20km from the nearest mountain or rise substantial enough to even begin hang gliding. besides, the object was only described as "shaped like a hang glider"

Chilliwack (and other communities along the Fraser River from Hope to Vancouver) are currently on alert for possible flooding from the Lower Fraser River, that is now rising & expected to peak this weekend. Much of Chilliwack is in the floodplain. I think it was one of the worst hit areas during the 1948 flood.

City of Chilliwack - Advisories & warnings

I did read about this sighting whilst googling flood updates One news report suggested it may have been aircraft flying over the river monitoring. I live near the Fraser, and there has been more aircraft flying overhead lately, but this is mostly during daylight hours.

Another report suggested it was a flock of birds!

yea, somehow i don't believe it could have been an aircraft monitoring flood levels just after midnight, and even though chilliwack has an airport the ucfv campus is a little ways away from the flight line as well as the fraser river. The 'flock of birds at night' come on, how many birds fly in a hang glider formation?, (not a 'v' formation like geese etc.), and again at midnight, and to fly in an odd manner in one location only to speed off to the west? yeah i'm pretty sure conventional 'explainations' for this ufo don't exactally cut it, too bad no one thought to get a picture or video

I just moved to chilliwack a while ago and ivev seenomething weird too. Its was a white dot (like a star) but not a star, moving around in circles and waves in the distance. I used to see stuff at my old house too
