As @Andreas noted above, they may not have had the negatives at the time. But even if they did, I think this was a standard way to create B&W copies of color photos as the paper published both. The device was literally called a "copy stand" and...

Well, it's often claimed that the grain pattern is consistent and shows no sign of manipulation — in other words, that the UFO hasn't been cut into the scene. But if the copy was made using film with prominent grain, wouldn't that "hide" some of...

This means you are ill equipped to relate to what Hall would have interpreted the sky as. To misidentify a celestial object as a UFO, it typically needs to be close to the horizon, not obscured by trees or by clouds. We don't know Halt's...

1) Calling the barely-seen Harrier a 'second aircraft' means that the clearly visible Harrier is seen in the same photo. Otherwise, they should have considered that these were two shots of the same aircraft. 2) "They show a large stationary...

A Harrier can either hover or fly as a conventional aircraft. However, it cannot bank while hovering, and the "jet" in the photo appears to be banking. Also, if the witness had described it as "a jet was hovering next to the UFO," I'm sure this...

Or more than one other frame? The only evidence we have for a 2nd aircraft (or model/ cut-out image etc. of a 2nd aircraft) in any of the other photos/ negatives is the MoD minute. It states that the negatives were "considered by the relevant...

Ah sorry, I was thinking here about @Scaramanga 's comment where one would be looking at the first stage copy of a photographic print with the 'UFO' paper stuck on it and perhaps I'm assuming looking at the negative under controlled inspection...

One more thing. We often assume a great deal about the additional five photographs — not least that the "jet" is visible in several of the frames, moving across the scene. I was quite convinced this was the case, but I'm not so sure anymore. I...

That's one way for sure, but the grain structure under magnification would make that easy to detect, especially along the edges of the stuck on paper.

Any UFO experience has two aspects, the physical and the mental. There are many examples, e.g. of pilots seeing Starlink flares, or questions that were posed on this forum, where recounting the physical aspects of the observation doesn't lead to...

Yes indeed, this is important to remember. Lindsay's copy was most likely made by photographing one of the original color prints. It is slightly damaged — I'm sure it's scratched, there could be stains, and it was stored for decades before being...
