Southwest of Dodge City, Kansas: Blue-white light gyrates around airliner for 20 minutes

At 3:20 a.m. American Airlines pilot Capt. W. R. Hunt observed a blue-white, star-like object gyrating around the airplane at 21,000 feet for 20 minutes. The position was about 100 miles southwest of Dodge City, Kansas, which Eberhart places approximately in the Oklahoma panhandle. The object moved backward and forward, then up and down, then dived below the plane and sped away. The Iola Register reported the encounter the same day. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
