One wonders why the Danish Air Force kept 30 years of UFO
sightings under wraps for the last 30 years if as they stated,
'there was nothing secret in the files'.

According to Luna Finnsson we 'UFO buffs' will now 'drool' over
them. The Danish Air Force revitalized that old saw about lack
of details did not allow identification stating "...most of the
sightings remained 'unidentified' because the details were not
precise enough."

If we had more details we could solve them? So could we. One
wonders though if the answer came up intelligently controlled,
extra -terrestrial... would they say so?

And then there is the standard.'and UFOs are not a known
threat'. To my mind keeping the files out of public view is
partnered with the inane statement that UFOs are not a known
threat. The two equal embarrassed recognition of the fact that
the Danish Air Force and those of the US, Canada and the UK can't
do a damn thing about these invasions of their air space.

In other words, they can't guarantee their own air spaces free
of other than their own or sanctioned aircraft in that airspace.
