I would say the majority of UFO's would be government test projects. Lets take for example Project Blue Book. In 23 years from 1947 thru 1969 there were 12,618 reported UFO's. Yet only 701 were unidentified. That means that the government knew what the other 11917 sightings were...

I agree with your first sentence regarding the majority of UFO's being gov't test projects... however the second statement regarding the gov't knowing what all but 701 sightings were I cannot agree with. In many cases with Project Bluebook's publically released explanations they would come up with ridiculous claims like saying the sighting of a solid metal object was swamp gas, etc.
I believe that there were test projects at that time that were on a "need to know" basis and the people dreaming up explanations for the sightings were not in the loop, but rather had instructions to cover up as much as possible...
