Background

A TAP Air Portugal airliner piloted by Capt. Henrique Maia was paced by two luminous objects near Luanda, Angola. The APRO Bulletin and NICAP's UFO Investigator reported the case in early 1967, and Coral Lorenzen included it in UFOs over the Americas. The entry gives no further details on duration or the objects' behavior. 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.
