Who Was Freddy Jackson?


This interesting photo, made in 1919, was first published by Sir Victor Goddard (1897-1987). Photo was not published until 1975. This picture represents a group portrait of Goddard's squadron, which served on the ship during the First World War. However, there is one person more on the picture.

Dead Man

Behind the pilot in the top row, fourth from left, we can clearly see the face of another man. And here is the interesting part. All former members of the mention squad confirmed the mysterious person on the picture is airline mechanic named Freddy Jackson. The trouble with that state lays in the fact that Jackson was killed by propeller aircraft just two days earlier. He was buried on the day when this photo was made. All members of the squadron have recognized his face in the photograph!

It is believed that Freddy Jackson, unaware of the fact that he is dead, decided to appear in this group photo.

It is interesting to add that Sir Victor Goddard, as well as Lord Combermere, had more paranormal experiences. In 1935, Sir Victor Goddard, Air Marshall in that period (rank in the Royal Air Force plane to General Army) flied with his Hawker Hart biplane from Edinburgh in Scotland to its base in Andover, England, deciding to skims along the abandoned airport in Drem near Edinburgh. Unused airport was still, at that time, overgrown with weeds, hangars were disintegrating and cows grazed on the place where the planes were parked before. Goddard then continued his flight to Andover, but encountered a strange storm. Due to strong winds in the unusual, brown-yellow clouds, he lost control of the plane and started to spiral fall to the ground. Having failed in the last moments to regain control, he realized that his plane again goes in the direction of the abandoned airport in the town of Drem. When he approached the airport, the storm suddenly vanished and he found himself flying through a perfectly sunny day.

Time Travel

However, this time, while flying over the airport, he noticed that everything looks completely different. Hangars were like new, four planes were on the ground out of which three were recognized flies, but colored in yellow, which surprised him, and the fourth was a monoplane, which RAF did not have at that time. The technicians have been trained in blue uniforms as Goddard-in was very strange, because at that time all RAF mechanics wore brown uniforms. He was also confused by the fact that none of the mechanics on the runway is not noticed while flying over the airport. Sir Victor Goddard then again ran into a storm but this time managed to happily arrives in Andover.

“ The only time RAF colored plains in yellow was in 1939. Is Goddard somehow managed to take off four years into the future and then go back through time? It is still a mystery. Maybe we will understand it i the future?
