On 21 October 1978, 20-year-old Frederick Valentich disappeared in unknown circumstances while piloting a Cessna 182L light aircraft over Bass Strait to King Island, Australia. This is an extract from a now-discontinued radio show called Radio Eye, first broadcast in 2008 by ABC Radio National. It was produced by Tony Barrell and presented by Brent Clough.

  • Its not just a matter of finding his body, he's dead, closure. We all should wanna know what he saw, what he encountered, and what the hell went on out there.

  • I have a song about this, will rerecord with better drums pretty soon. Not trying to toot my own horn, but thought I'd share.

  • I wished they'd make the real recording public

  • I remember seeing this on Unsolved mysteries....too Scary.....

  • If this happened in America they would have made a movie bout it 4 sure!! 1 of the most baffling UFO mysteries. Unlike other cases the Pilot and plane dissapeared after the Pilot reported seeing something unusual.

  • @sharpezor ha ha, clearly!

  • Is there an authentic recording of the radio transmissions anywhere?
