Craig Charles: UFO Conspiracies
Chicago
Season 1 Episode 7 of 10
Craig and co-host Sarah Cruddas examine the Chicago O'Hare International Airport case of November 2006 - the sighting of a flying saucer hovering over a United Airlines airport gate. The incident was witnessed by multiple aviation professionals, pilots and passengers. The immediate aftermath of the event was captured in real time by audio recordings of communication between the airport's Air Traffic Control tower and airline staff, but the sighting was dismissed by the US government's Federal Aviation Administration as a weather phenomenon. Craig and Sarah talk to UFO investigator Robert Powell, who reveals the UFO punched a circular hole in the clouds as it departed upwards after hovering over the terminal. Craig and Sarah also learn astonishing details about how aviation authorities handled the incident
