3. Cook – a professional, and award-winning, writer on aerospace matters

fellow has great resume -

It is the product - the book - that the book reviewer sees little value in.

As the Atlantic notes

"One conclusion Cook reaches in The Hunt for Zero Point is that some of the "Foo Fighters" that World War II pilots reported seeing over Axis territories MAY HAVE BEEN German prototypes of new flying machines that used antigravity technology. He also posits that somewhere in the black world, WORK HAS LIKELY CONTINUED ALONG THESE LINES, and that much of the wackiness surrounding sightings of "UFOs" has been deliberately spun to ward off investigations of new technologies in development.

Since the book's publication in Britain, Cook has uncovered documents detailing Boeing's antigravity research program at the top-secret Phantom Works, where the company is striving to develop "propellantless propulsion" ahead of its competitors. Writing in Jane's Defence Weekly, Cook quoted the documents as saying that along with Boeing's own program, other "classified activities in gravity modification may exist"—suggesting that antigravity may, in fact, have been more than a 1950's fantasy. BUT WHAT DO THE DOC's SAY - DID HE FIND ANY SUCESS REPORTS?
