Background

Commandante Angel Parreno, the pilot of an Iberian Airlines Boeing 727 on a flight from Santiago de Compostela to Madrid, Spain, watched an unknown object accompany his aircraft for 20 minutes. The entry names a barium cloud released by a rocket as a possible explanation. The case was reported in the International UFO Reporter in April 1977 and by Timothy Good. 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.
