Bob Fish considers radar data and thermal imaging data a good start for studying Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), especially if one knows the flight envelope and manoeuvring characteristics of a UFO.
“Radar data and thermal imaging data is a good start, especially if one knows the flight envelope and maneuvering characteristics of a UFO.”

Bob Fish considers, based on significant personal experience, that Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) hunters are looking in the wrong places.

Bob Fish considers that random personal observations, fuzzy photographers, and crop circles will never prove the existence of anything, since Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) appearances to humans are transitory and somewhat related to the observer's state of mind.

An anonymous US Air Force noncommissioned officer, relayed by Robert 'Bob' Fish to John Podesta, said that RC-135 reconnaissance missions monitoring Cuba were sometimes diverted to track UFOs off the east coast of Florida, which he claimed had a landing and takeoff point in the ocean east of Miami, north of Bermuda, tracked by a specific electronic signature when transitioning into or out of the water, and were filmed on several occasions transitioning between water and air.
“'He said there were times when they were diverted from these missions to track UFOs off the east coast of Florida. His claim was the UFOs had a landing and takeoff point in the ocean east of Miami, north of Bermuda. There was a specific electronic signature (frequency) emanating from them when they were going into or coming out of the water, so they were easy to track. On several occasions they filmed the UFO as it transitioned from water to air or vice versa,' Bob Fish told Podesta.”

Robert 'Bob' Fish argued that if he revealed the exact electromagnetic signature of a high-mach UFO that US sensors search for without attacking, and this were published, the Soviets or Chinese would manufacture a bomber equipped with signals and electronic intelligence (SIGINT/ELINT) countermeasure equipment generating that exact signature.
“For instance, if I told you the exact electromagnetic signature of a high-mach UFO that US sensors search for, but don't attack, and you put it in a book, the Soviets/Chinese would manufacture a bomber with sigint/elint [signals and electronic intelligence] counter measure equipment that generated that exact signature.”

Robert 'Bob' Fish considers that at the time of the radar trace, and almost certainly still today, humans did not have the technology to sustain the high-speed turn observed because g-forces would have ripped the craft's wings off.
“At that date (and it almost certainly remains true) humans simply did not have the technology to sustain that high-speed turn – g-forces would have ripped the craft's wings right off.”
