17 January 1947: Operation Charlie
One of the incidents that Dave Evans (the person we are investigating and collecting UFO information on behalf of) mentioned was Operation Charlie from 1947.
My initial enquiries have located mentions of both the Chain Home Low Radar at Skendleby in Lincolnshire and RAF Ingoldmels. It seems some kind of capture of the unidentified object was undertaken without success. There is a book which included information about Operation Charlie:
‘Out of the Shadows: UFOs, the Establishment and Official Cover Up (David Clarke and Andy Roberts)’
which is available on Amazon i wonder if Dave would appreciate a second hand copy?
Perhaps a visit to the Radar Museum (RAF Air Defence) in Norfolk may be useful http://www.radarmuseum.co.uk/home.htm
Dominique and i need to plan our next tour date….
