Initial data
At 16: 25 on July 11, 1995, a Wideroe Dash-8 passenger plane was en route from Fornebu (Oslo) to Bronnoizund when something very strange happened over Steinkher, about 70 kilometers north of Trondheim. The co-pilot noticed a flying object that was moving to the right of the plane. On the left side of the cockpit, the captain could only see part of what had happened:
"At first we thought it was a different plane, but when I leaned in to get a better look, I noticed that it had no wings or tail," says Captain Eric P. Risan.
There was good weather and good visibility. His (anonymous) co-pilot on the right side of the cockpit got a better view of the object, but does not want to go into the details of the incident:
"I have already reported the facts to the radar station in Trondheim. If I wanted this story to be in the media, I would say so, " he said.
The Wideroe Dash-8 was flying at 15,000 feet. Soon, the unknown object slowed down and disappeared. In about a minute, it was all over. The crew informed the tower Vernes thought there was something in the air.
Sometimes the weather balloon goes astray, but the captain does not want to speculate whether this may be an explanation in this case. The military radar in Grakallen near Trondheim covered the area, but did not detect any signals from an unknown object. There were no military aircraft in the area. The armed forces considered the object unidentified.
11-year-old Roy Arne Hallem apparently witnessed the incident from the porch of his home in Ind Alen. The boy told his parents about this on Tuesday evening. The incident was published the next day.
The object was very polished and almost the size of an airplane.
"I saw it for half a minute or a minute before it went straight up and disappeared at a tremendous speed," he said.
Three hours later, the same (or similar) silver polished object was spotted by 75-year-old Bjarne Lane.
