1931

Probably the first air-to-air sighting of a UFO was by Francis Chichester…  In 1931, he was piloting a tiny plane from Australia to New Zealand when a strange airship appeared, a dull grey-white colour with brightly flashing lights.  The disc followed him for some miles across the Tasman Sea, occasionally vanishing behind clouds, before accelerating out of sight.
