Rainbow, whose recent report of sighting flying Jights while on a flight from Wellingtoh to Auckland caused such a stir. Cabinet Ministers, meteorological experts and top-ranking Air Force officers have all become embroiled in the mystery, and it is reported that. there has been something of a major "ilap" ainong tlie "big brass" of the Air Force. Despite the gibes of his colleagues, Captain Rainbow sticks firmly to his story.
