TOBRANCH CHIEF, DT-S 1. (S/STD/NF ) On 20 April 1990, three remote viewers (# 003, 011 and 079) conducted a total of three SOLO sessions in an effort to answer requirements against the vessel known by call sign The last SG1A - known location for the vessel was determined to be about 20 nautical miles south of Andros Island. Projected activity involves the use of an aircraft to effect a possible air drop of contraband in the form of illegal drugs. The customer provided the following EEI: a. Describe the vessel and identify its name. b. Describe the aircraft involved and identify its call sign. c. Determine the location of the airdrop to the target vessel, if any and describe the circumstances/time of unloading. d. Where will the contraband be unloaded/transferred from the vessel? 2. (S/STD/NF) 003 reported that the vessel involved is involved is circa 50 ft long, with a two level deck -- higher towards the front. The superstructure/pilothouse is well forward. The vessel is diesel or gasoline powered, and there are booms/outriggers about midships near £ the deck cutaway. A large drum hoist/winch is near the stern. The upperworks of the vessel are light-colored, almost white, while its hull is dark colored. There is an oblong radar antenna turning on the pilot house roof. The aircraft involved is medium sized, low-wing, multi-engine (probably two) , propeller driven. Access to a large open cargo area in the aircraft is through an door in the right side of the fuselage. There is something distinctive about the vertical stabilizer -- as if there are two of them, or one large central fin smaller ones outboard on either end of the horizontal The aircraft has tricycle landing gear, is light with two stabilizer. colored with a thin dark stripe on the side.

(S/STD/NF ) When 003 tried to focus on the question of when /where the airdrop would take place, he keyed into an "activity of importance occurring currently (20 1130L APR 90) at approx 1930N/7810W (NW of Jamaica, S of Carnaguay, Cuba) . The activity is occurring at the present time (201120 Apr 90), is occurring over a 1 to 1 1/2 day window, but will conclude about dusk today (20 Apr)." 003 could not identify whether this activity was related to the operation identified the requirements or whether it is separate. From the operational in data it would appear that this is a separate activity, which because of its potential importance and immediate nature caught the attention of the viewer. 4. (S/STD/NF ) 011 reported that the vessel is a small, white pleasure ship, approximately 30 feet long. It has a superstructure which is located just forward of midships and a cabin below the forward deck (note sketches on EEI sheet at TAB B). The aircraft is a small, twin-engine craft reminiscent of an Army U-21 in appearance. 011 was not able to obtain any location data. 5. (S/STD/NF) 079 reported that the vessel, call sign is a Small, open vessel. The aircraft involved is small and light-weight. The aircraft has a call sign that sounds like "Sephen/Stephen/Sephten. " The airdrop will take place in 3 hours to 3 days (time of session 20 0900-1000L APR 90) at 25 N 80 W. The term "kilglight/kligolight/kilight" is somehow associated with this operation. 6.
