Phantom Plane Buzzed Street

Witnesses claimed they ran for cover as a so-called ‘ghost plane’ appeared from nowhere - There have been so many sightings of this rusty old plane across the region with people claiming they felt sure the craft was about to crash because it came overhead so low. One of the first recorded sight-ings of the so-called Phantom Plane was in 1987 in Abergele when a number of townspeople re-ported seeing the “war-time transporter” appear from nowhere and then vanish before them. They described it as fat, very large and unmarked, a black Hercules-type plane. Phone calls were made to RAF Valley, Anglesey, and nearby airfields, but no-one was apparently able to shed light on the sightings.

The most dramatic incident which came to the attention of ufologist Margaret Fry, was reported by mothers in Llangernyw, Denbighshire, as they were picking up their children from school. Several claimed they were sent running for cover as the plane - which they described as rusty, with no paint work - roared over their heads. In the distance it followed the landscape and dipped down in the valley at such speed that the parents felt the plane was sure to crash, but they continued to watch as it pulled up and, with “great effort”, it managed to make it over some distant hills. Margaret said there was a shocked silence after the incident before locals began calling officials to try and find out what had happened to the plane.” They were told that no such aeroplane would even be allowed to fly in that condition,” said Margaret. “So what was it, and where did it come from and vanish to?” she said. “To this day people still mention it.

“That seemed to be the end of our Phantom Plane - until October 1994 when reports started coming in from Wrexham.” In another incident on June 15 1994 at about 7pm a couple were driving over Denbigh Moors when the aeroplane appeared before them. They watched as it passed left to right in front of the car at an estimated 100ft off the ground, flying fairly slowly. It then started to turn to the right giving the couple a full view of the craft but then it suddenly “vanished into thin air”.
