Gregor Schwinghammer, ex fighter pilot and Captain of U.S. Air Force, flying with his F100 in 1959 around the Ararat,  saw something which looked like a large, rectangular barge-like structure sticking out of the side of mountain. (p.421 The Explorers of Ararat by Corbin). He personally told me and my colleagues, that the Parrot glacier zone reminded him of the area of  his sighting and that the object was resting on one side of the mountain. Therefore it was not upon an ice plateau, but in a horseshoe shaped depression  (or gully) about 1300 meters from the peak around 3900 meters of altitude. (Ibidem p. 411)
In his book “The lost Ship Of Noah”, Charles Berlitz affirms that the sketch of the Ark by Schwinghammer corresponded with those of Lee-Hagopian. In both sketches one can note the Ark in a ledge above a cliff. Berlitz also affirms that the sighting had happened where Hagopian, Navarra and others had sighted the Ark.
