“Captain Jack Bicknell and others aboard an East African Airways Lodestar reported a stationary metallic bullet-shaped object above Kilimanjaro, later rising eastward and disappearing at high altitude.”
“Bicknell estimated the object at over 200 feet long with a square-cut vertical fin and dark bands. Hall says passengers photographed it and that movie film was reportedly developed; the original media are not ingested here.”
“Hall introduces Section X as a survey intended to show that UFO reports, official investigations and private study groups were international rather than uniquely American.”
