It includes the MOD's 9 December 2002 reply, which covered reports from 1976, 1980, 1993 and 1996 and charged £260. It also contains internal emails and file requisitions, plus Foreign Office and United Nations papers from 1978 on Grenada's proposal for UFO research.

Unlike the Bentwaters case, this one has not to date thrown up
any evidence of a ufo landing, but there is certainly enough
evidence to imply a ufo presence over the Westcountry, and
possible other parts of the country, on the evening before and
after the known re-entry of a Russian space rocket at 1.10am.
My gut feeling is that this is exactly what occurred, and until
the present 'unknown object(s) reported upon are identified,
then they should without question be classified for what they
are- 'Unidentified Flying Objects'.
