- Alfred C. Loedding
Alfred C. Loedding (February 17, 1906 – October 10, 1963) was an American aeronautics engineer. He graduated from the Daniel Guggenheim School of Aeronautics in 1930 and worked with the pioneering Bellanca Aircraft Company until 1938. He then became a civilian engineer for the U.S. Air Force at Wright Field, later known as Wright-Patterson Air Base. Loedding specialized in low-aspect design aircraft, such as flying wings or flying disk designs, and held a 1948 patent for such designs.[1]
In the summer of 1947, Loedding's expertise in low-aspect aircraft design brought him into early informal Air Force UFO investigations. He served as a liaison between The Pentagon and Air Force officers during a period of extensive unidentified flying object reports. From 1948 to 1949, he was part of Project Sign, the Air Force's formal UFO investigative arm.
