The Cash-Landrum UFO Incident
Special Access Programs Technology?
One of the most publicized UFO events ever occurred on the evening of December 29, 1980. This later became known as The Cash-Landrum Incident, named after the people who reported this experience. Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum, and Vickie’s then seven-year-old grandson, Colby, had a strange encounter with a flying, diamond-shaped craft that was expelling what looked like a flame from its base, and they felt significant heat being emitted. This incident occuerred while they were driving down an isolated road in dense woods near Dayton, Texas. When they first saw the light above the treetops, they thought it was just an airplane heading to the airport in Houston. As they approached closer, they decided to stop the car and get out to have a better look. The heat was intense and they feared if they got any closer they would get burned. The object was described as intensely bright and a dull metallic silver color. It was shaped like a huge diamond, compared to the size of a water tower by the witnesses. They also said that flames shot out the bottom into a cone shape that appeared to be keeping the craft aloft. Military helicopters then showed up surrounding the object in a tight formation. The craft and the helicopters then flew off into the distance and out of sight of the witnesses. Cash suffered symptoms corresponding to radiation sickness after the event, and later developed cancer. The case received much publicity, and a lawsuit was filed against the U.S. government that was later dismissed because the officials from the military testified that no governmental agency possessed a craft resembling the UFO. But, would these officials be aware of a classified “Special Access Program” that requires a special compartmentalized designation for security clearance for the program? Since most of these “black projects” are contracted out to private corporations, then I would say probably not. This turn of events prevents details of Special Access Programs from becoming public knowledge. You see, the simple fact that the bulk of the research and development is being handled by private subcontractors, despite its classified nature, it protects the information from disclosure through the “Freedom Of Information Act” (FOIA). The private corporation can claim “proprietary” status on any such technological development and therefore it becomes a “trade secret”, not available via FOIA request. Now that this incident has long since passed, new evidence has come to light of a top-secret project that fits the timeframe and developmental capabilities of the craft described. This project is discussed by Dr. Paul A. LaViolette, Ph.D. in Chapter 7 of his excellently researched book, “secrets of Antigravity Propulsion”. This project has come to be known as “Project Skyvault”. Will the U.S. government ever publicly acknowledge that this program may have caused significant harm to these innocent bystanders and take responsibility for the incident? Probably not. If you are interested in the technology utilized in “Project Skyvault”, a link will be provided below to Dr. LaViolette’s description. I hope you find value in this article. Cheers!
