The Private Secretary,
The Minister of Civil Aviation,
Parliament Buildings,
WELLINGTON.
Dear Sir,
I return herewith letter and report from New Plymouth together with my report on an object observed by him on 1955 November 5th.
There is no doubt that he observed the planet Venus, which is becoming more prominent in the evening sky at the present time.
I would like to add that there is now no doubt in my own mind, that the object observed by the N.A.C. aircraft was similarly the planet Venus. A report was forwarded to the Director of Intelligence, Royal New Zealand Air Force.
Yours faithfully,
J. L. Thomson
DIRECTOR
Encls.
