The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert was published by Headquarters United States Air Force in 1995. The Black Vault distributes this copy. It reproduces the report by Col. Richard L. Weaver and the synopsis by 1st Lt. James McAndrew, both written after a General Accounting Office inquiry requested by Representative Steven Schiff. The Air Force search found no evidence of an extraterrestrial craft or crew. It concluded that the Roswell debris most likely came from NYU Flight No. 4, a Project MOGUL balloon train.

the amplitude and frequency of oscillations induced by the servo system. In fact, under the influence of both controls, oscillation is almost undetectable. As a consequence of such tests, it is possible to predict the type, size and frequency of oscillations which the servo-control equipment will introduce into the balloon flight. This is especially significant since it is known from flights on which no control equipment was included that oscillations do occur naturally within the atmosphere, apparently as a result of vertical cellular convection currents. By knowledge of the frequency of oscillation caused by a given control system it is possible to analyze oscillations and determine which are caused by control and which are atmospheric. The wiring diagram of the flight-similitude system is shown in Figure 19. Figure 19. Wiring diagram, flight-similitude system.
