    On 8 January 1981, an alleged UFO landing occurred at Trans-en-Provence, France involving Monsieur Renato Nicolai (sometimes misspelt as “Renato Niccolai”). (Monsieur Nicolai was originally referred to using the pseudonym “Renato Collini”).

    This incident is Case 65 in Isaac Koi's "Top 100" article,  since it was referred to in 45 of the books covered by that article.

    This incident featured in a document (“the Rockefeller Briefing Document”) endorsed by Dr Mark Rodeghier (President of CUFOS), Richard Hall (Chairman of FUFOR) and Walter Andrus (President of MUFON) as containing “the best available evidence for the existence of UFOs”.
