Spanish Air Force Manises File

Spain began declassifying Air Force UFO files in 1992 and completed a staged public release through 1997, depositing physical copies in the Central Library of the Air Force. The Manises 1979 incident file, declassified August 1994, was among the most significant, including the Mirage F1 pilot's debriefing, radar logs from two separate tracking stations, and the airline crew's signed statements.

Brief

Spain began declassifying Air Force UFO files in 1992 and completed a staged public release through 1997, depositing physical copies in the Central Library of the Air Force. The Manises 1979 incident file, declassified August 1994, was among the most significant, including the Mirage F1 pilot's debriefing, radar logs from two separate tracking stations, and the airline crew's signed statements. Between 1962 and 1995 the Spanish Air Force compiled official reports on more than 80 separate incidents. The declassification process was formally announced by the Defense Ministry and reported by El País. The Manises file's official explanation (industrial reflections) was explicitly qualified in the document itself as speculative, and the incident was not reclassified as explained.
