UFO CASE REPORT - RECEIVED 10/20/05, POSTED 11/19/05
SPIJKENISSE, NETHERLANDS - TRIANGLE SIGHTING
TRIANGULAR CRAFT IS SIGHTED ON TWO SEPARATE DATES
SOUNDLESS, DEMONSTRATES INSTANTANEOUS CHANGE OF ADDRESS
BY DARRYL BARKER*
On the Google Earth Image above, the pin at image center marks Spijkenisse, Netherlands, location of two separate triangle sightings in 2000.
On October 20, 2005, I received a communication from Mr. Danny van Eijk, who reports the following. A resident of the Netherlands, Mr. van Eijk's native language is Dutch. I have condensed the man's e-mail and corrected typos where appropriate, for this report.
"I am sorry to bother you with an email from (probably) another one of those morons who has seen the triangle but here it is. I am 30 years of age and hailing from Rotterdam, the Netherlands. After listening to the album "Come on! Feel the Illinois!" by Sufjan Stevens for the umpteenth time I started some research on some of the subjects of his songs one of which is called "Concerning the ufo sighting near Highland, Illinois" upon entering your website I saw the "vessel" me and a good friend of mine called (name undisclosed) had not spoken about having seen for at least 5 years. It was the same "ship" we saw walking home from clubbing at 5 o'clock in the morning on a Saturday. We were in what was my hometown back then, Spijkenisse on the fringe of the Rotterdam harbour area and were talking about anything two single guys in their twenties talk about..... When walking past the metro (subway) I saw a giant triangle high up (though not too high) in the sky above us and I could easily make out some big lights on the tips of the pyramid shaped structure as well as a lot (and I mean a whole lot) of smaller lights near the back of the vessel.
It moved completely soundless and quit swiftly towards the trees that would have blocked it from our line of sight when it disappeared by either moving upwards really fast or accelerating very very quickly before it reached the line of trees (this is a point where me and (name undisclosed) at the night in question already could not come to terms on) I mostly took a stand on it accelerating because I deemed it turning invisible to be an impossibility and rather put it down and drinking a bit too much (which actually we hadn't.)
We both didn't say a thing for about a minute and then finally said something like "okay, so please tell me I'm not going mad." Which was the final acknowledgement that we had actually witnessed something which was not "normal." And as you would assume 2 of our friends walking about 400 yards behind us had not seen a thing and thought we were making all this up
That is until we set down for a cigarette (a disgusting habit I have quit for 2 years now) on a park bench and saw the sun come up when all of a sudden a group of 3 jet planes flew over us in the exact same direction the "blimp" had just 15 minutes before made it's trajectory. This kind of showed them there was something going on after all.
Now comes the really weird part though.
After a couple of weeks I saw the same exact thing fly over when I was making my way home and had just dropped (name undisclosed) off at his door. It flew in a 90 degree angle from the previous time I had seen it. It wasn't too clear but it was approximately the same time it had been the last time we had seen it (05.00 o'clock) but this time there was only me seeing it and no-one else. I only could see it long enough to make out it was the same sort of machine I had witnessed the first time before it disappeared behind a bunch of houses
I did not deem it worthy to inform anyone besides (name undisclosed) as people were reluctant to believe it anyway and the Netherlands are not a country were these things are news worthy (because of the low probability of it being something that is believed I guess) and after a while we didn't talk about it anymore.
Until this afternoon that is. I saw on your website what we I had seen with my own eyes that night and never have uttered to anyone but some friends and relatives.
I'm delighted but a little let down as well as I always felt really special having seen it. Now, however, I've came to learn a lot more people have seen it I am still not sure what to believe and have actually at times told people I do not believe in UFO sightings while I have witnessed two myself.
Thank you so much for having this site and I will go and read everything that is on it now as I didn't even take the time to do so because I wanted to let you know about our "experience" first...
Thank you,
Danny van Eijk

The witness indicated that fighter aircraft of the Royal Netherlands Air Force usually do not fly missions at 5:00 am in the morning. Furthermore, to the witness's knowledge, standard fighter aircraft for the Royal Netherlands Air Force is the F-16. There were three and they flew what would have been a pursuit trajectory of the object.
Regarding the following Royal Netherlands Air Force Bases....

THE DEBATE: ALIEN OR HUMAN TECHNOLOGY?
MEDIA NOTES:
On July 23, 2002, the National Institute for Discovery Science, NIDS, proposed a hypothesis that the UFO seen over Illinois on January 5, 2000, was a U.S. Department of Defense, "Black Program" aircraft. The public must be reminded that although the media may portray NIDS' report as a solution to this case, it is not a solution; it is a hypothesis.
9/4/04 UPDATE: We are pleased to see the latest August, 2004 reassessment of the flying triangle enigma by the people at NIDS at: http://www.nidsci.org/articles/8_25trireport.php NIDS' cumulative mapping of triangle sightings across the United States is cause for some serious concern by the United States government and the U.S. military.
