UPDATE: No loss of airline activity – Benoit Bardouille (video of alleged waterspout included)

This is what the eyewitness reported seeing earlier Monday evening

An 11:30am update by the authorities here suggests that it is highly unlike that suspicious activity witnessed over the sea off Salibia on Monday night was an airplane crash as some eyewitnesses have suggested.

Head of the Dominica Airport and Sea Port Authority (DASPA), Benoit Bardouille, told Dominica News Online that searches in the pinpointed area had yielded no debris.

Bardouille said what was even more telling, was that no loss of official air activity had been reported by the people involved in air traffic control operations at airports in Dominica and the neighboring islands.

Police Public Relations Officer, Inspector John Carbon said searches overnight had yielded nothing.

Bardouille had reported earlier on Tuesday that all aircraft which were scheduled to land or take off at Melville Hall Airport had been accounted for, and that French authorities in the neighboring islands were also reporting that their planes were all accounted for.

There however remain persistent suggestions that the “ball of fire” seen by some eyewitnesses on Monday evening was a plane crashing into the sea.

Dominica News Online was informed on Monday evening by an eyewitness that the incident actually involved a waterspout. A waterspout is a rotating column of water and spray formed by a whirlwind occurring over the sea or other body of water.

The eyewitness said based on his observation the incident was not a plane crash as he did not see any fireball as reported by other eyewitnesses.

DNO is still following this story and will publish additional information when it becomes available.

Below is a video provided by Anderson Burton as to what he saw on Monday evening.

    i wonder if they see the fire wit there own eyes or just talking to make ppl believe so :(

  2. May 24, 2012

    it can therefore be concled that in Carib Reserve:

    A Ball of fire / Crashing plane is ≤ A water Spout/ Soucouyant.

    Thats our math for today.

    Many of you all take this as a joke. But I can definitely say I saw a ball of fire in the Portsmouth area at about 8:15 it lasted for couple seconds, I was about to make a wish when I realized tgat was not a falling star. I grabbed on to the arms of the person that was sitting with me on the porch, and remained speechless, until he asked me what’s the matter, I told him he won’t believe me, and that he will think I was seeing things, but he did believe me because he said he could see the expression on my face changed instantly and I was staring blank at something. I wonder if anybody else in the Portsmouth area saw that. It disapperad rather quickly though.

    well water sprouts are frequent. seeing them quite often. Maybe, just maybe it could have been a plane but not one in or from our area……… could be on some far route and passing over us. but most probably that could have bee an Astriod… normal thing. cool unless it fall on the land. lets just hope and pray that it wasn’t nothing to shout about. God bless D.A

And that the helicopter taking part in the so called search last nite HAD NO SEARCH LIGHTS or well it was not visible from land, only saw the flashing (beacon ) lights on the helicopter….i really hope that this is not true

    DNO PLEASE TAKE NOTE!!!

    We are too quick to discredit our people. There are two different eyewitness accounts… the people who saw a ball of fire are obviously not the same ones who saw the waterspout. The people who saw the fireball from the carib territory are not stupid, they would know a waterspout if they saw one; they look alot like tornadoes, which everybody has seen pictures of on TV. These are two very different events. What the people in the Carib territory saw was seen by other people all around the world. There was a meteor shower last night and you can see similar reports from around the world by searching online. Google is free people!!! Here’s a link from a news site in Britain… THEY saw the same thing and thought it was a plane crash too.

    People the person who mentioned the forming of a Tornado,we must not take it lightly. some time a go I was coming from Guadeloupe on the ferry and just outside guadeloupe the captain said look to the right of the boat you will see a tornado being form. Frightened as I was I looked and saw this thing and my reaction was is not in America those things happening nor? So people it is global warming , environmental changes take note.

    Good Morning Dominica, Well based on my review of the video this look like a small Tornado and the reflection of lightning on the water and clouds which caused this red reflection. One can also see the whirling wind funnel- shaped cloud and clearly hear the people on the video asking if it touch down and it can take you. Another thing don’t the Aviation Authorities in Dominica track all planes in our airspace.

    If u look at the video carefully it looks like something fell from the sky and left a trail of smoke behind. This to me, would be a better explanation why some people saw fire and why Anderson saw this “waterspout”, or maybe there was intense lightning which sparked fire and then caused the waterspout. None of the assumptions are ridiculous unless we have proof of what really happened, (although the souckouyant story is far-fetched). Whatever it was, each is entitled to their opinion…no need to be calling each other derogatory names.

      Ummmm… I don’t think waterspouts originate from the sky in balls of fire…could it be that the waterspout was a result of the impact from the asteroid hitting the sea??? Maybe what Mr. Burton captured was just the after effect.
      Oh, and it’s not just outsiders that think Dominicans are dumb… It’s Dominicans OUTSIDE of Dominica who think you guys need to get with the program really. 2012 allu still talking about soucouyant like is 1973. REALLY????

I hope none of those fat firemen don’t drown. They should just leave the soukooyah, or media or plane that was off radar alone.

So, when you hear of someone dying in their sleep and you say, I wish I’d die like that, think twice.

I find it incredibly impossible to believe that the people up at Melville Hall would be completely oblivious to a plane that was either supposed to land at THEIR airport, or even just a passing by plane! You cannah possibly tell me they made radio contact with a plane, have it suddenly STOP, here a few minutes or moments later perhaps that there’s suddenly been this big “fireball” reported near the Carib Territory………….and NOT put 2 and 2 together!

      I totally agree with you. You seem to be the only one making sense of the supposed happenings. A waterspout is essentially a waterborne tornado.The two are a very good combination for disaster. Having an understanding of the tornado phenomenon, plane and tornado surely would make a firery combination.

    Plane only crash either after take off or before landing so in this case i don’t think it’s a plane crashing. If it’s even a plane, it must be an explosion of the plane and “NOT CRASHING.”

    I saw this kind of thing happen off the cliffs near Calibishie many years ago.

    It was late at night and this flare came out from behind the clouds and went into the sea across the channel with a big noise.

    Next day there was a news report that a meteorite had smashed into the sea near Guadeloupe. Maybe this thing came from outer space too.

    I’m not one to speculate but that does not sound good at all. Its good to know that almost all responsible authorities are in motion to ensure that if this is what we all think, then maybe some lives may be saved if possible. God is still in control
