Subject: Mexico UFO Footage Background Information

Dear friends,

It's important to note that the Mexican Secretary of Defense conducted a complete investigation with their own team shortly after the March 5, 2004 incident and also with the help of scientists and experts selected as goverment advisors. The investigation was conducted confidentially and followed every proccedure required.

As the results were inconclusive, in the sense of identifing the nature of the traffic detected by the C26A equipment, the case was declared "Unexplained". It was not until April 20, 2004 when General Clemente Vega, Secretary of Defense decided, with his staff, to contact Jaime Maussan as an advisor to aid in the investigation to conduct an independent study and analisis of the C26A data.

As an expert in UFO incidents relating to civil aircraft, Jaime had a meeting with General Vega and all the major Defense officials on April 21 and the next day he was shown all the materials. The intention of the military was to dig deep into the phenomenon in which the C26A was involved, trying to establish if this was indeed a paranormal incident as suspected and to find elements that were not contained in their own data base with the purpose of getting to the bottom of this event.

All the facilities were given to Jaime as well as authorization to access the files and interrogate the crew members. In a surprising and historic decision General Clemente Vega authorized Jaime Maussan to release the case with all the facts to the Mexican people. General Vega said to him with gentle words: " know you will make good use of this Mr. Maussan."

A complete study and analisis was made by Jaime's research team and the results have been published on the Internet and presented on national TV. The conclusions are clear, they were UFOs - solid objects of unknown origin - flying in airspace along with the Merlin C26A. The Secretary of Defense accepted the Maussan research team's conclusions as an unexplained event.

At this time alternate analysis are being conducted by several groups here in Mexico including astronomers, meteorologists and digital imaging experts. This is a mutual effort by Mexican ufologists and scientists to respond to this long awaited UFO disclosure by our military as an acknowledge for their confidence in all of us.

The case continues, in its second research phase. Next Sunday Jaime Maussan will present all the facts,interviews and the complete footage with original audios in our TV show Los Grandes Misterios del Tercer Milenio, a two hours live broadcast simultaneously on the Internet for all to see this story.
