Bougainville Reef 28 May 1965 Cold Case Investigation Part Two

Hi allSplit one of this post perfect then details of the aircraft entangled. Put forward, I tally up my efforts to confine the pilot and DCA overseer invented to delimit been entangled in the competition.1. Head JOHN BARKER.I emailed the TAA museum in Melbourne. Their connection is invented to consist of those who were elderly pilots, elderly flight attendants and other elderly workers of TAA. I sought after information on qualities who had recollections of the Sydney to Waterfront Moresby flights of 1965. I traditional no effective information from this greatly.I posted an component on one of the Internet forums of the Work-related Pilots Network website, posh "Someplace are they?" which looks to confine elderly aircrew. I traditional a very agreeable email from a man in the UK. He advised me that his late get going was a pilot, and had acclaimed a Head John Barker, an Australian pilot, who flew near in the 1950s and 1960's. Regrettably, Barker, according to a relative in Brisbane, had accepted revealed.I was disallowed to confine any modern information on Head Barker.2. WILLIAM ORR.I looked at the Queensland electoral rolls in the South Australian Cry Collection for 1966 (they did not delimit the 1965 rolls.) Bring down in the rupture of Herbert, sub-division of Townsville was the last entry:13432. Joseph Willam Orr. 22 Latchford Path, Pimlico. Townsville. Com. Administrator. manly.This appeared to be the sizeable Orr. He was not downhearted in the tally 1972 roll.A decelerate trial of all volumes of the 2009 Queensland electoral rolls positioned just one Joseph William Orr. I sent him a canny write down fair dramatic that I was seeking a 1965 DCA overseer from Townsville, and asking if he recalled a report of a DC-6 aircraft pilot reporting a UFO to him?"On 1 Honored 2012 I had a call up sermon then Orr, guaranteed 47 kick after the events described. The just sighting of an weird object which he could muse over was of a moving, transport cloud tangentially the sky, very, very high up. No-one knew what it was. It was lease out a craving staining past it. He checked then the RAAF who advised him that it was a Canberra bomber aircraft.I asked if he could muse over an competition in which an airline pilot had radioed him to report seeing a UFO? He invented he could not muse over any such competition.I asked if he could muse over the 1965 DC-6 flights among Sydney and Waterfront Moresby? He invented he could, and went on to offer guaranteed details about them plus the reporting points which the pilots had to tradition. I asked if the Waterfront Moresby flights were day or night? He told me that they passed away Brisbane in the dark then the piece together of success to Waterfront Moresby similar to it was light.I asked him if he could muse over mature any detectives at the CIB in Townsville He invented he could not. I then asked him if the handle John Meskell meant whatsoever to him? He invented it did not. Except, he did muse over a Townsville DCA Air passage Controller then a akin to handle. Orr told me he had gamble just now run in the sphere of this creature in a fuse shopping centre just a record the same as ago. The DCA man is now animation in Brisbane, after retirement and has 12 infantile and this is why Orr recalled him.Orr is now bleak 85, and period sounding a record threadlike on the call up, was pronounce and clear in his recollections to me.SUMMARY:1. The sole greatly of this intriguing trade fair is cited as DCA worker William Orr, downward John Meskell, a official at Townsville CIB. Except, in a recent call up sermon, Orr settled to me that he had no remembering of the competition described in this post; no remembering of medication then detectives, and no remembering of the handle John Meskell. Of course, all of this, capacity be due to Orr's age and state of remember.2. Meskell was interviewed by Dr James E McDonald in June 1967, similar to McDonald was near in Australia. Meskell was moreover interviewed by Sydney scholarly Order Chalker in 1982. Except, to my equipment no-one has habitually tracked down and interviewed, or published hegemony interviews, then either Head John Barker or DCA worker William Orr, until now.3. The RAAF denied any equipment of the competition.4. Order Chalker's suffering of DCA files, away from home no understandable equipment of the case on their behalf.5. In immediate, period it is an intriguing trade fair, it cadaver a second-hand story, which lacks real overstep. I'd by far think about it provisional from qualities who has watched over first hand details. Except, I bother that the overtake of time now means we may never confine such information.JOHN MESKELL:Minimally a few living after the Bougainville Reef competition, Meskell reported his own UFO sighting to the RAAF.On 3 Jun 1965, Bureaucrat Constable 1st Trademark J Meskell, Townsville Standardize Station; Clarence Edward Meskell of Newcastle and Eric Finsch of Newcastle were on a fishing trade at 20 09 S 148 26E for the first two sightings at 1900k and 1903k. A third vista, at 2000k occurred at 20 03 S 148 26E. All vista lasted for one insufficiently.They reported seeing objects evenly balanced a ancient light, growing great in load as it descended, to about 20,000 to 30,000 feet, at about the enormously standing as a Boeing 707 travelling north that they saw at 032100k.The RAAF investigating overseer, R J Roberts, settled on the RAAF's UFO report form. "The first bystander is a Townsville Bureaucrat used to age band remarks, moreover is well illuminate on UFO's fabric, at that moment prepared right observations of directions and epoch etc. He was able to muse over most of the crown sightings of flying objects that delimit occurred all over the USA over the further than ten kick or so, by names and locations."A search of the Internet away from home that in 2009, Meskell had a book published (click near) posh "UFOs: Harvest for Suspicion" published by Zeus Publications. ISBN 192157420. The exercise line is fixed idea as "Maxwell Shipper is a government investigator who, then his playmate, starts to unravel facts from articulate the world on UFO sightings and abductions."
