On Nov. 23, 1953, an Air Force jet was scrambled from Kinross air base in Michigan's Upper Peninsula to intercept an unknown object in restricted airspace over the Great Lakes, and near the Canadian Border. After a dogged pursuit, the jet containing Airmen Felix Moncla and Robert L. Wilson disappeared. And what ensued was a brief search yielding no wreckage, and 70 years later, no answers. The American and Canadian air force explanations as to what happened conflicted with one another, and the families of the missing were told differing stories. But there have been strange circumstances surrounding the incident, including hoaxes and stonewalling. Acclaimed UFO Researchers from Michigan -- John E.L. Tenney, Brad Blair, and Bill Konkolesky join host Aaron Sagers to discuss the history, legacy, and ongoing mystery of the Kinross Incident.
