MY EARLY MORNING "FLYDREAM":  
(First view the "AREAVIEW.GIF" picture file)

I first appeared about 30 ft. from an open door to a large metal building. Only
the building was in view and the surroundings were black.  I approached that 
door because it had light emanating from it.  I stepped up to and stood inside
the threshold of the door.  I viewed the inside of the building and didn't see
any one around.  The area closest to me appeared to be illuminated, while the
remainder of the building was only dimly lit. The areas furthest away were in 
total darkness. I observed about 6 weird shaped machines about 40 Ft. away in 
the dimly lit area.  One of the closest machines in that area looked like a 
large version of the "H.G. Wells Time Machine". I took a few more steps inside
and to my right I focused on a "triangular" shaped object that was parked on 
the floor.

Suddenly, from my left side I heard an old man's voice call out, "Welcome!".
"Do you wish to try it out?". "What is it?" I asked.  He said, "Step on the 
plate and position yourself in the center!"  As I did so, he approached the 
left side and fiddled with the end cap of the "triangular shaped tubing" that 
had a "joy stick" like control knob fastened to it's sloped mid section. About
10 seconds later he closed the cap, and walked behind me 8 Ft. or so to a wall.
He then reached up to an electrical control box which had coloured push buttons
on the front of it.  When he pressed a button, I heard a hum above me similar 
to the sound of an electric motor. Looking up, I observed two roof doors moving
slowly away from each other on slide tracks.  The tracking was installed on a 
sloped section of the gable style metal roof. The doors stopped when fully 
open.  The opening appeared to be about 8 Ft. wide by 15 Ft. long. and the sky
continued to look as if it was still night time. 

The old man said, "The knob controls all movements of the machine".  "If you 
want to go up, you tilt the knob upward". "If you want to go down, you tilt it
down". "If you want to go forward, you pull it towards yourself, AND I AM 
WARNING YOU TO NEVER PULL THIS VERY MUCH AT ONCE, OTHERWISE YOU WILL FALL OFF!"
"If you tilt the Knob to the right, the machine will turn right". "Tilt it 
left, it will go left". "If you push the knob in, it will slow to a Stop". "If 
you bring it to a stop, the machine will hover if you do not move the knob". 





"Go ahead and lift the knob upward slowly" he said.  As I did, this "machine" 
lifted a few inches off the concrete floor and started a slight but noticeable,
slow, clockwise, "precessional wobble". The bottom framework "clanged" randomly
when areas of it touched the floor.  I saw and heard small blue electric sparks
snapping and hissing to the floor!  I tilted the knob upward slowly a bit more,
and the machine continued going upward until it cleared the opening in the 
roof.  

Once it passed through the roof opening, I was startled to realize it was 
suddenly a bright sunny day! I continued slowly upward, and as I looked around,
I observed thousands of 10 Ft. high trees in all directions.  They were spaced
evenly apart and in rows.  It appeared that this "place" might be some kind of
Commercial Fruit Farm Operation.

I proceeded about 50 Ft. upwards and let off the "spring loaded knob".  The 
machine "floated in that spot". I wanted to know more about the "FEEL" of it,
so I clenched the triangular tubing with both hands and I slid my left foot 
about 12 Inches toward the edge.  The machine leaned down about 6 inches, but 
then quickly corrected itself to a level position.  I felt pressure in my left 
knee as I maintained the left leg straight.  My body was suddenly forced to 
lean on a slight angle to the right.  I corrected myself to stand upright. I 
slid my foot back to the original mid position.  The machine shifted over to 
the right 6 inches and quickly re-positioned itself to a level position. I had
to upright my body again. The feeling of leaning down to the left and right 
felt similar to what is experienced when shifting the body weight inside a 
small aluminum row boat on water!  

With a big grin on my face, I thought, "OK, let's see what this thing can do!" 
Immediately after "thinking that", I heard the old man's voice echo in my head
LOUD AND CLEAR - "REMEMBER WHAT I TOLD YOU", "DON'T PULL THE KNOB BACK HARD!".
After hearing the old man's warning up there, I thought I had better be careful
of what I "think" to myself!
 
With my left hand grasping the triangular tubing and my right hand on the knob,
I pulled back very slowly and ZOOM, I felt my back press against the machine's
back support. In a flash I was going 75+ MPH towards a high tension hydro tower
line in the near distance!  What was unusual was that my hair was NOT blowing 
around and I did NOT hear wind rushing by my ears! In a few seconds I was going
to crash into those wires, so I tilted the knob upward slowly a bit more. The
machine quickly rose fifty feet higher and passed right over the wires. I then
returned the knob to the mid position.  I looked back and I could see the 
building I had just come from about a mile or two in the distance. I tilted the
knob to the right and the machine responded to the right, "banking" on an angle
LIKE "leaning into a turn" while riding a motor-cycle!  As I was completing the
180 degree turn, I tilted the knob slowly to the left a bit and the craft 
levelled out straight. I continued "tweeking" the knob left and right to bring
the machine back on course toward the building.

As I neared it, I pushed the knob inward gradually.  I felt my body's weight 
being exerted on my left arm.  The machine slowed down to a full stop as I 
pushed harder on the knob while approaching the area right over the building's 
roof doors. It felt like pushing on an automobile brake peddle, where if you
want to stop quickly, you have to apply more pressure.  While the machine 
hovered, I tilted the knob to the right and the craft slowly rotated in a 
clockwise direction.  As it came around to face the same direction I started 
out in, I rocked the joy stick knob left and right and tilted it down gently 
bit by bit until the machine descended slowly through the opening of the roof.

While the machine gently clanged against the concrete floor, I could hear those
familiar sparks jumping from the machine to the floor.  The old man approached
the "triangular tubing end cap" side, opened it up and did something to shut 
the machine "Off".  It sure was an "experience" bringing that machine through 
the roof opening without hitting anything!  I stepped off the base plate and 
onto the floor, looked at the man and said "WOW!, THAT'S AMAZING!".  I asked,
"HOW DOES IT WORK?".  

THAT IS PRECISELY WHEN I OPENED MY EYES AND REALIZED THAT I WAS BACK IN BED 
LAYING ON MY BACK!  I felt the weirdest tingling sensation on EVERY inch of 
the surface of my body that faded away about a minute later. I spoke out loud, 
"AH S#*t!, I DIDN'T GET TO FIND OUT HOW THAT THING WORKED!".  My talking out 
loud woke my wife and she said, "Go back to sleep!"  I got out of bed and 
grabbed a pad of paper, a pencil and a tape measure.  I then proceeded to make
a sketch of the machine and to jot down this "DREAM EXPERIENCE"! 

The more I thought of this machine, the more vivid my observations became. I 
remembered that there appeared to be a very light blue colored "GLOW" around
the entire LOWER framework of the machine once it was "Turned ON".  The machine
made NO SOUND.  The framework was black and appeared to be about 9 Ft. total 
length and about 42 inches at the widest point.  The two "checker" plates were
a silver color. The plates appeared to be about 1/2" thick.  There remains a 
mystery about the "triangular tubing" that the control knob was mounted on. It
was located about 42 Inches above the "standing" plate.  The solid metallic 
circular knob appeared to be 3 inches outside diameter and about 1 inch thick.
The outside diameter was knurled and I believe it was probably machined in this
way to provide a positive hand grip.

There appeared to be no wires, electrical or electronic devices existing 
anywhere in view!  Perhaps wires, fluids or some materials were installed 
inside the framing system?  Maybe the silver colored "CHECKER PLATE" that I 
stood on, as well as the rear "back support plate" were sandwiched capacitors,
inductors, crystals or "BISMUTH" alloys?  Could the "plates" have acted as 
vertical and horizontal positioning and/or propulsion control "devices" for the
machine?  Perhaps, through the use of polarized pulsed or steady state electro-
magnetic currents, aetheric field energy was being harnessed and re-directed to
provide vectored vortex fields and/or currents? 

The entire frame system joints all appeared solidly welded.  It may be possible
that the framework protruded 6 feet beyond the "triangular tubing" to act as a
"Counter Weight" to the "drivers" weight.  If so, this could mean that the area
directly under the control knob represented the "center of gravity" point?  The
front wedge and cone shaped area also had a "BLACK BOX" fashioned and fitted to 
the inside contoured framework. Could this have been a power plant, a resonant
tuned cavity, an impedance transformer-coupler, an aether energy coherer/
director (working like optical lens systems do?) or a combo-variant of the 
devices mentioned above?
  
                   "THIS DREAM EXPERIENCE WAS TOO REAL!"
