How Do Airline Companies Prevent UFO Sighting Gossip From Leaking?
According to the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), there were 110,000 active pilots in 2019. With that many pilots in the air, one would think that there would be significantly more sightings than what one typically hears about. Now, let's just say a small handful of those pilots actually do see something. I would imagine some of those pilots would at least tell some friends and family members, right? .
There's also a LOT of different types of people besides just the pilots in the air-line industry. We're talking vast numbers of people like baggage handlers, those in baggage claims, flight attendants, flight instructors, air traffic controllers, various ground staff, maintenance techs, secretaries, phone operators, office workers, corporate staff, etc. That's a LOT of different types of workers, aside from just the pilots.
Regarding the air traffic controllers, they may also be involved in reporting some sightings (or in their case, "anomalies" on their radar) as well. That does make sense to me.
But aside from the pilots and air traffic controllers reporting these UFOs that they may see (whether with their own eyes or with the radar), where are all the OTHER reports of UFOs from the millions of other airline employees?
I am curious as to what your thoughts are on the apparent lack of gossip among airline employees about all of this. Where's all the "I heard this" or the "I heard that" coming from these OTHER types of airline employees? Ever hear any cool baggage handler stories about what some pilot saw? Or what about some good tales from some secretary from United Airlines, who's good friends with a pilot? Or what about a mechanic for Jet Blue hearing about UFOs from a pilot as well?
Not much, is there?
Remember, people LOVE to gossip. They just can't keep things to themselves at times.it's human nature, right? To GOT to tell someone, ANYONE, about what they just heard. Gossip is very strong among people, and imagine if someone like a baggage handler or mechanic heard about some pilot seeing a UFO. Think he'd talk about it? Of course he would.friends, family, people online, sites like this.he'd tell anyone he could, right? Perhaps tens or hundreds of people.with the story multiplied and going exponentially once he started yapping online about it. And that's just ONE baggage handler. Now let's get ALL the secretaries involved, the other office staff, the mechanics, etc. who heard the same story. Oh yes.people TALK. And they talk among each other a LOT. Think a UFO sighting would be good gossip material among friends and family? It sure would be.
Now let's pretend ALL the pilots and even ALL the air traffic controllers have NDAs. Maybe they do, maybe they don't. But let's pretend they do.
Are you telling me all the OTHER airline staff, all the types I mentioned previously, have NDAs about UFOs as well? I doubt it. There's WAY too many people involved here in these industries, folks. Millions involved. And if each of them, even the lowly baggage handler had to sign an NDA, the general public would at least hear about THAT.
With all this in mind, where's all the general gossip coming from those who are not pilots or air traffic controllers who saw or heard about a UFO? I'm not seeing much of it anywhere.
110,000 active pilots, and if any of them see any anything, the friends and families of them just happen to be quiet about it? So.where's all the UFO stories from THEM? Sounds like MILLIONS of these employees (MANY of which know the pilots) simply are not saying a word about any of this, are they?

it is WAY higher than REPORTED. many pilots see weird stuff, but keep it to themself or only talk with other pilots they know more. if the wrong people hear that a pilot sees aliens flying around, it could mean that he loses his job because they think he isnt suited anymore for flying safely. i heard already from such cases happening where pilots told others public about what they saw and lost their job for it.
Pilots are scared about their jobs. and about what people think about them. so they stay usually silent (in public) about it. just like many other people who have other jobs. for them its safer to keep their mouths shut and keep their job and reportation than to risk it. their life depends on their job, so they not want to risk it just for something like i saw something weird.
and i mean.. i have experienced in my life a lot of really crazy stuff (not related to UFOs, but similiar).. but i wont go around and tell random people about it. especially not if they ask me and i dont know for 100% that they dont gonna think im a maniac or something. i know what i experienced & dont need someone to believe what i experienced. i know what i experienced and i dont need validation for it.. so i keep it to myself except in rare situations. and im just a normal dude. if my job would be risked for talking about it.. trust me i would shut the feck up and dont talk to anyone about it.
