Location. Scaer, Finistere, France

Date: April 1960 Time: 11:00 a.m.

50-year old farmer Armand Leberou was riding his “moped” in a country road when he saw a metallic oval-shaped craft hovering close to the ground over a nearby field. A long metallic “pole” protruded from the top of the craft. Soon a tall (1.80m) humanoid with “European” features and wearing a green combination suit emerged from the craft and approached the witness and in a friendly manner invited him onboard the craft, speaking in perfect French. Inside the witness saw numerous instrument panels and other types of equipment. The humanoid attempted to explain the propulsion system to the witness. He was then given a “test flight” in which he flew over fields and cities. He was soon returned to the place of the encounter and the humanoid bade goodbye. After that, the object shot away silently at high speed.

Comments: This case appears to have been a “leftover” from the 1954 wave. However, the ride in the UFO is unique, there are no cases on record from 1954 describing such an event.
