This MoD file, titled UFOs - Persistent Correspondence - Dr David Clarke, holds Dr David Clarke's Freedom of Information requests and emails to the Directorate of Air Staff from 2005 to 2008. Clarke asked for the DI55 report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena in the UK Air Defence Region and for Rendlesham papers. He also sought records about Nick Pope. Other items include an internal review that released redacted passages on plasmas, the MoD's statement that it had no report of the 2008 South Wales police helicopter sighting, and a 2009 disposal form.

inaccurate. They said the incident did occur but the crew simply saw an "unusual aircraft" not a "flying saucer". The force refused to release any further details of the crew's report but were quick to pour cold water on the more sensational claims made by The Sun's source. The copter had not chased the UFO across the Bristol Channel, nor had to take evasive action to avoid it, they added. Further details were provided by a spokesman for air traffic control at Cardiff airport. He confirmed the pilot had reported his sighting to the controller who immediately checked the radar for anything unusual. But they could see nothing other than the helicopter. It appears the incident was quickly forgotten about until someone - The Sun's mysterious source - leaked an exaggerated version to the media. This was confirmed when it emerged that the Ministry of Defence and the Civil Aviation Authority had no knowledge of the sighting. To put it simply, if it was not reported to them directly, then as far as they were concerned there was nothing for them to investigate!
Meanwhile BBC Wales in the midst of the storm brought the storms with a story from newlyweds Lucy and Lyn Thomas. They on their wedding party. The celebrations took place at Cowbridge which is three miles southeast of St Athan on the sea coast. The paper lanterns, 2ft 6 in high (0.79m), behave exactly as they did at night have been the source of many UFOs. The couple purchased 100 lanterns for the event. The police said the event was going ahead. Thirty women were from 11am. The northwesterly winds that evening would land in the helicopter base. But The Sun and the police were having none of it. The crew were very experienced and “we do NOT believe it the UFOs even one of these lanterns,” an indignant force spokesman told us. But whatever the police said what they chose that both a UFO and a fleet of sky lanterns happened to visit at the same time?
