Black Triangle Over Powell River

In late January 2024 UFOBC was contacted by a gentleman named John that wanted to relay a sighting that his brother had in the early 1990's. We asked if we could talk directly to his brother, Dan, so John checked with him, but unfortunately he did not wish to speak to us. However, he did confirm the details that his brother had written.

My brother Dan is 72. Back in the 90s sometime (I assume the earlier part of), during a period of his life when he worked at the mill in Powell River BC, he and a friend saw a black triangle craft. Not the standard TR3B type you see on TV but a long triangle shape instead. Others also saw the craft.

It was very, very windy (maybe November) that night (maybe late afternoon or early evening). So windy in fact they could hardly walk and apparently so windy that it had sunk some boats. The wind was from the west. He and his buddy, Dave, didn’t see the craft come in, they only saw it over the mill. He said it was really big, silent, black and was only doing about 5 or 10 mph. He said that you could see the bottom of it and that it didn’t have any standard propulsion system visible. Then he said it slowly went out over the log booms where the old WW1 ships were (and are still) and in what seems seconds was over Vancouver Island to the west. He said it just zipped away. The entire time it was unaffected by the strong wind.

He also mentions that it didn’t have any lights on it but when it flew off, there was a centred red dot at the tail end of it.

The others that Dan and Dave spoke with all saw it as well. However they all said that they saw it circle around the mill first.

My brother only talks about this if asked. He’s not one to make shit up.

His son, Drew, maybe about 10 or 13 at the time I’m guessing, didn’t believe the story until Dan and his wife, Sue, told him to go ask Dave about it if he didn’t believe it. Dave told Drew the exact same run of events.

Ironically, Drew was hunting with Dan up near McBride later on when he was older and they both saw strange lights far away that looked like they were coming out of the forest. Weird.

I’m very jealous.

I’m sorry but I don’t know what year it was. Maybe someone else has already reported the same event?

John
