What Happened to the F-89 After Radar Contact Was Lost?
A third unanswered question is what happened to the F-89 after radar contact was lost with it?
The official USAF investigation board concluded that the F-89 crashed into Lake Superior at the time radar contact was lost with the aircraft or shortly afterwards. Later USAF correspondence suggested that the F-89 had probably crashed into Lake Superior on its way back to Kinross after the intercept was completed.
An Algoma Railway crew located at Limer, Ontario heard a jet crash into the bush east of Lake Superior some unspecified time after contact with the F-89 was lost, suggesting a possibility that the F-89 perhaps crashed into the bush east of Lake Superior.
Another possibility is that the F-89 was captured by the UFO it was chasing.
Did F-89 crash into Lake Superior?
