Interesting. I haven't seen anything suggesting this guy is a wingnut. Of course, he hasn't provided any details or proof, either.
Presuming, arguendo, that he's correct, that raises a couple of questions:
When did we start collecting this stuff? - It'd be easier to hide this kind of thing in more recent history, as technology would tend to blend in a bit. During the era of stagecoaches and steam trains... not so much. If the collection of these artefacts was recent, why? Did they only just start coming here and crashing here? Why are they crashing? Are we shooting them down or are they capable of interstellar travel, but bad at flying in Earth's atmosphere?
What branch of the government was involved in hiding it, and for how long? - The intelligence arms of the US Government haven't existed as they do today for eight decades. We only had a CIA-like agency since the WWII era. How would alien craft collection and cover-up look in a pre-WWII era? And if they weren't traveling here prior to that, why? And what made them come after that (the advent of the nuclear era?)
