A passenger on a small commuter flight in Hawaii says her plane was forced to swerve mid-air to avoid a UFO on 9 July, in an incident so abrupt it 'scared the hell' out of her and, she claims, visibly alarmed both pilots. The alleged near-miss happened as the Mokulele Airlines service from Molokai to Maui emerged from cloud, when a 'white something' suddenly appeared in front of the aircraft.
The reported encounter came just one day before the Pentagon released its latest batch of declassified UFO files, including footage of another fast-moving white object passing close to a US military aircraft. The Hawaii sighting sits in that awkward gap between official denial and eyewitness certainty, a space that has been steadily filling with newly public documents and years of quietly filed reports.
