The following e-mail exchange should be read from the top downwards. Timothy obviously hasn't investigated The Meier Case in considerable depth but he did visit BEAM for 4 hours, and he has investigated other UFO cases and written some notable books regarding extraterrestrial visitation. So his opinion on The Meier Case should be known and his reasons for rejecting the truthfulness of it should be understood in order to further our knowledge of it and it's detractors.

Dear Timothy,
I read your Alien Liason book and the sequel and found them very enlightening. Thanks partially to your effort I discovered the most important ufo or alien contactee case that is still ongoing: The Billy Meier case.
Please kindly and honestly tell me why you never gave it your full attention? Did Lou Zinstag convince you to avoid it for some reason?
Thanks
James

Thanks James.
I've referenced the Meier case briefly in a couple of my books. I actually 'discovered' the Eduard 'Billy' Meier story during an orchestral tour in India in 1964, when by a strange set of circumstances I met two people in Delhi who had befriended him there. I learned that Meier had fallen in love with one of the space girls, seemed quite genuine, and suggested I try and contact him. He had recently been expelled from India (together with his monkey!) on vagrancy charges (I have the newspaper article alluding to this) and had gone to Switzerland. I eventually tracked him down via his sister near Zurich and communicated with him by phone the following year. At that time, I got the impression that he was genuine.
In the 1970s, however, having spent about four hours with him on his farm, I strongly felt that although some of what he told me rang true, much of it was bullshit. I don't have time to go into too many details, except that I came across enough evidence to convince me that many of his later claims and photographs (i.e. when he was in Switzerland) were probably bogus. When I visited him at his farm, I vividly recall Lou (Louise) Zinsstag returning to Meier one of his photographs showing a model he'd made of a 'beamship', identical to those he'd photographed at the farm. He went red with embarrassment. He could have said that he'd simply made it after photographing the 'real' craft - but he didn't. I also saw a few bits and pieces in his barn of what looked like identical materials used in the construction of the model. He also ran a film for us showing him strutting around the farm with a ridiculous red "ray run", which he said his space girls had given him, and a hole made through a tree with it. As for photographs of the "Space Girls", you must be aware that these apparently were lifted from magazines.
Also, I did not like the man - and the feeling was mutual: he told Lou never to bring me back to his farm (not that I wanted to). She remained convinced of the genuineness of his story. And, for what it's worth, my feeling is that Meier probably did have some ET contacts (and took genuine photos) during his earlier wanderings in India, Jordan, etc., but that, for whatever reason, he was "dropped" (as have a number of other "contactees"). Thus, in later years in Switzerland, he fabricated contact claims and photographic material, weaving in some genuine information in with the bogus stuff.
I trust this is helpful. You might also find Kal K. Korff's book on Meier useful - Spaceships of the Pleiades - if you haven't read it already.
Best regards,
Timothy Good

Subject: Billy Meier.
Dear Mr Good, I have been a reader of your books for some time and would like to enquire if I might ask for an opinion re the above subject. I have recently been considering buying a book from the Billy Meier stable. I have been spending a fair amount of time trying to assertain the validity of his claims. And as I am of the opinion that you more than anyone else in this field would know one way or the other, could I ask is he the real thing? I appreciate that you might not wish to answer so will not be offended if you don't . Kindest regards, Eddie.

Dear Timothy,
I appreciate your response and I will always respect your work in the field of Ufology.
You have some compelling reasons to conclude that Meier is not or is no longer a genuine contactee, however I get the distinct feeling that perhaps you did not get to the bottom of the case and dismissed it a little prematurely. Surely one can almost expect claims that are apparently bullshit to be spoken by contactees since we are conditioned since childhood by our currently Earth-bound and degenerate society can we not? And as for models, perhaps he did not defend himself because he knew the truth and let you decide for yourself whether to go further in your investigation or not.
Are you aware that there are allegedly now over 120 witnesses to various events that support the visitations of ETs even to this day? http://www.futureofmankind.co.uk/Billy_Meier/The_Witnesses
Do these witnesses make any difference to Meier's validity?
There are also the metal alloys that contained high levels of the element Thulium and the beamship-produced sounds that after spectrum analysis were found to be unreproducable by the available synthesizers of the time. What do you make of them?
I havent read Kal K Korffs book but the man seems to have been on a crusade against Meier since Wendelle Stevens refused to pay for his flight over to Switzerland or so I heard, but I will take up your suggestion so as to read all sides of the story.
I cant help but wonder how the Meier Case might look today if you carried out a thorough investigation. Certainly clearer if not any less controversial!
Again I thank you for your time.
Yours sincerely
James

Thanks James. Re the witnesses, how many are members of Meier's cult? Somewhere I have a photo of him with a group of witnesses and there's an obviously super-imposed photo of a "beamship" in the sky above them. There are also the laughable photos of the "wedding cake" craft near a fir tree, so obviously a model set up by Meier. And the photo of the "Eye of God". Re the metals, how professional was the analysis? At least one of those who analysed his photos, was a dubious character (I've forgotten his name temporarily, but he was an American researcher friend of WCS. I've heard the "beamship" noises at his house and was distinctly unimpressed. And you must know that his (former) wife has derided many of his claims? I could go on, but I have neither the inclination or time.
Why don't you become the (hopefully) impartial and thorough investigator of his claims?
Good luck.
Best regards,
Timothy

You probably now think I'm completely biased and pro-Meier. I understand your reasoning if you come to that conclusion.
Finally, what do you make of the latest release of UFO-related documents by the National Archives? Are these the tame documents yet again and why were the Rendlesham documents "omitted" from the release?
Yours sincerely
