Somewhere in the Skies

On episode 231 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are welcomed by former USAF fighter pilot, Lieutenant Colonel Chris Lehto. With over eighteen years of flying, he worked as the Commander of the US Detachment at the Tactical Leadership Programme in Albacete, Spain. As Chief of Flying Branch, he oversaw the execution of three flying courses with no safety incidents. Previous to his final assignment, as Training Systems Assistant Director of Operations for the 56th Training Squadron at Luke Air Force Base, Arizona, he directed the development, procurement, and sustainment of F-16 simulator training. He overseas program officers for two simulator contracts and represents Luke as F-16 training systems subject matter expert.After Lehto saw the Navy UFO videos, it definitely caught his attention. Especially when he noticed that several of them had been debunked. So he decided to debunk the debunkers and use his eighteen years of flying to give us an inside glimpse of what the pilots may have experienced during these dramatic events. Today, he walks us through some of the more interesting aspects of the Navy UFO videos, his first real-world combat flight, and so much more as we continue our conversation of UFOs in 2021 and beyond.Subscribe to his YouTube Channel at: https://www.youtube.com/c/ChrisLehtoF16VOTE for Somewhere in the Skies in the 2021 Paranormal Podcast Awards! https://bit.ly/3j4ijTgPatreon: www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesWebsite: www.somewhereintheskies.comYouTube Channel: CLICK HEREOfficial Store: CLICK HERESomewhere in the Skies Coffee! https://bit.ly/3mIAq2oOrder Ryan’s book in paperback, ebook, or audiobook by CLICKING HERETwitter: @SomewhereSkiesInstagram: @SomewhereSkiesPodSomewhere in the Skies Subreddit: www.reddit.com/r/SomewhereSkiesPod/Watch Mysteries Decoded for free at www.CWseed.comEpisode edited by Jane Palomera MooreOpening Theme Song, "Ephemeral Reign" by Per KiilstofteSOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES is part of the eOne podcast network.

On episode 230 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we dive deep in to the depths of our waters to explore the enigmatic history of Unidentified Submerged Objects (USOs) and their phenomenal brushes with the world's militaries. From the discovery of the New World up until today, these objects have been encountered either going in to or coming out of bodies of water. You'll hear about dramatic sightings reported by military pilots and sub-mariners, with some incidents possibly having fatal consequences. These are the mysteries of the "Fast Movers"A large portion of this episode was researched and written by Marcus Lowth.

On episode 229 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we are welcomed by noted skeptic, debunker, and one of the most controversial figures who has found himself thrust down the rabbit hole of UFOs... Mick West. West describes how he first got in to debunking when it comes to conspiracy theories and UFOs, why it's important to question everything, his personal thoughts on belief v.s. fact, and the cold hard truths about witness testimony, trained observers, and how we can all work towards clawing our way out of the rabbit hole and in to the future of UFO studies and beyond.Follow Mick West on Twitter: @MickWest Visit his website at: www.metabunk.orgPatreon: www.patreon.com/somewhereskiesWebsite: www.somewhereintheskies.comYouTube Channel: CLICK HEREOfficial Store: CLICK HERESomewhere in the Skies Coffee! https://bit.ly/3mIAq2oOrder Ryan’s book in paperback, ebook, or audiobook by CLICKING HERETwitter: @SomewhereSkiesInstagram: @SomewhereSkiesPodSomewhere in the Skies Subreddit: www.reddit.com/r/SomewhereSkiesPod/Watch Mysteries Decoded for free at www.CWseed.comEpisode edited by Jane Palomera MooreOpening Theme Song, "Ephemeral Reign" by Per KiilstofteSOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES is part of the eOne podcast network.

On episode 226 of SOMEWHERE IN THE SKIES, we drop you in to the eyes and minds of those who stared up in to the skies and had something extraordinary stare back. We hear the dramatic stories of several witnesses who saw UFOs on Halloween night, strange lights dancing enigmatically throughout the skies, and a synchronistic chain of events that brought two complete strangers together who unbeknownst to one another, had the same UFO encounter in the same location and same night. This is another powerful volume of Witness Accounts.  Special Thanks to everyone who submitted to this volume.
