BBC: Kurt Russell Was the Civil Pilot Witness to the Phoenix Lights UFO

Official reports about the 1997 Phoenix Lights phenomenon have always included a call from a civilian pilot, referring to 6 Unidentified Flying Objects.

Actor Kurt Russell recalls piloting to Phoenix and his passenger pointing out that there were 6 flying unidentified objects dead ahead. Kurt verified this and reported it prior to landing and then taking off back to Los Angeles. He and his passenger never thought or talked about this event again.

A few years later, his significant other, Goldie Hawn was watching a show about the Phoenix Lights on TV when he walked into the room and overheard the narrator describing the call coming in from a civil aviator. He realized that the civil aviator was him but he says that this wasn't the strange part.

What he realized was strange was that if it weren't for that show triggering his memory, he would never have remembered that event.
