My files have 854 "reports" recorded in them from around the world.
There are many more to add to these files.
These exclude the whole "Grey Abduction Syndrome".
I have read most books on the latter and as for other reports not recorded yet that I have read...probably in the hundreds.
Some not in files have been recorded in my 4 books as well as the AOP Journal.
Out of 854 I would say 10% (and I am being very generous here) or 86 reports are "sufficient to make a judgement regarding. Out of these probably 10-12 are of sufficient High Strangeness to use as testimony.
There are reports of Sasquatch intermixed with CE3K reports. Despite what you may have seen on You Tube or read in some sensationalist book Bigfoot/Sasquatch does not come from a flying saucer. We have local legends of ghosts and other "supernatural" things mixed in with UFOs. Why? There is no connection between "ghosts" and UFOs. Any sort of "cryptid" creature you can think of is pulled into UFOs at some point. Including hoax alien videos does not help.
For decades the same 1954 'UFO wave' reports have been repeated but very few have ever been investigated -some had to wair 20-30 years before Ufologists spoke to witnesses/percipients. Amongst those reports never investigated is this one:
12th October, 1954 Teheran, Iran.
A disc-shaped object came very close to the ground in a densely populated area. Chasim Faili, one of those who witnessed the incident, screamed when he thought he was going to be kidnapped. A crowd gathered and the object took off. The entities involved were said to be small and dressed in black.
A landing in a densely populated area and those allegedly interested in these things just took the press report and that was it. A lost report and not evidence of much. Certainly it might have been had someone bothered getting off of their backsides.
There is a report of two UFOs being seen near an area and there were roughly 100 observers to this CE3K...no one followed up. I could go on and cite one multi-observer CE3K incident after another and each would be followed by "no investigation undertaken."
What research and investigation is being carried out into these reports byUfology? In four books I have noted trends and much more that seems to have by-passed Ufology which either ignores CE3K/AE reports or jumps onto the alien abduction craze because it brings in money. Ufology has wasted 73 years since the "Birth of Ufology" in 1947 and it has come down to scandal ridden UFO organisations and "pop TV" with slick UFO conmen.
Ufology will never be the science it pretends or wants to be. Its biggest names are as guilty of very poor research and adding false data to Ufology as the "I deal with 100-150 new alien abduction cases a month" morons.
Who cares? NOT Ufology.
