Aerospace safety, pilot reporting, government transparency on UAP · Ryan Graves

Americans for Safe Aerospace (ASA) is a nonprofit organisation founded by Ryan Graves, a former US Navy pilot, which advocates for aerospace safety and national security.¹ Graves also serves as its Executive Director.²³ The organisation supports military and civilian pilots and others in the aerospace industry who report Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), and campaigns for greater disclosure from public officials on the subject.⁴

By the time of the House Hearing on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (2023-07-26), Graves said more than thirty witnesses had come forward to ASA and that almost 5,000 Americans had joined the organisation’s push for transparency.⁵ According to the hearing record, Graves testified at that session in his capacity as ASA’s Executive Director.⁶ Graves stated that the majority of witnesses approaching ASA are commercial pilots at major airlines, often veterans with decades of flying experience.⁷

Graves told the hearing that commercial pilots have reached out to him through ASA because they feel they have no other way to report UAP-related safety issues.⁸ He said he considers the most compelling accounts brought to the organisation to be those involving observations by multiple witnesses and sensor systems.⁹

Graves also relayed, at the same hearing, an account from a witness who had approached him at ASA describing the 2003 Vandenberg Air Force Base Unidentified Aerial Phenomena / Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) incident, in which objects were said to have approached security guards at rapid speeds before darting off.¹⁰
