Time Slips

[Curly]

Supposedly, a time slip is a paranormal phenomena in which a person or persons pass thru a rip in time. Time travel, kinda like the HG wells story. I'm curious as whether it works in reverse. It is usually someone from the present travelling to the past but what about the other way around. I keep thinking of ghosts of soldiers that appear on the battlefield and seem to replay their last moments in life. Is it a ghost in the sense that it is stuck or attached to the moment or physical place or do they come back in a rip in time, time traveling from the past to the present? (their future) And then they slip back?

LOL! Your damn right time slips are weird....I have some lying around my house from Westhampton drag track (LImotorsports park)...I just look at them sometimes and go "HOLY SHIT! WE ACTUALLY HAD A DRAG TRACK.....AND MY CAR ACTUALLY RAN!"

j/k j/k

Time travel has always fascinated me though. Just one of those cool things...I guess something about the notion that it is all just physics (granted, physics that we don't understand) makes it so potentially real...if that makes any sense.

Here is a weird one for you similar to what you describe. One summer night I was going to meet up with some friends at Cory Beach like we have been doing for the past few years. On the way down the road that leads to the beach I saw a car that looked like my friends car so I slowed down. The car kind of slowed down as if to be acknowledging me and through the foggy window I SWORE it was my friend. I didn't think anything of it, was just kind thrown off by why she would just drive by without saying hi.

Then I got to the beach and remembered that she totaled that car the previous year...and I found out later that she never came out that night. The kicker is my friend that was already at the beach comes up to me and goes "yo man, I SWORE I saw Mel drive by before".

Victor Goddard who is known in Great Briton as the father of the Royal Air Force evidently had an experience with a time slip. This man was known to be a genuine gentleman and as honest as they come, yet in 1935 he experienced a phenomena that he was unable to explain.

"In 1935, Air Marshal Sir Victor Goddard of the British Royal Air Force had a harrowing experience in his Hawker Hart biplane. Goddard was a Wing Commander at the time and while on a flight from Edinburgh, Scotland to his home base in Andover, England, he decided to fly over an abandoned airfield at Drem, not far from Edinburgh. The useless airfield was overgrown with foliage, the hangars were falling apart and cows grazed where planes were once parked. Goddard then continued his flight to Andover, but encountered a bizarre storm. In the high winds of the storm's strange brown-yellow clouds, he lost control of his plane, which began to spiral toward the ground. Narrowly averting a crash, Goddard found that his plane was heading back toward Drem. As he approached the old airfield, the storm suddenly vanished and Goddard's plane was now flying in brilliant sunshine. This time, as he flew over the Drem airfield, it looked completely different. The hangars looked like new. There were four airplanes on the ground: three were familiar biplanes, but painted in an unfamiliar yellow; the fourth was a monoplane, which the RAF had none of in 1935. The mechanics were dressed in blue overalls, which Goddard thought odd since all RAF mechanics dressed in brown overalls. Strange, too, that none of the mechanics seemed to notice him fly over. Leaving the area, he again encountered the storm, but managed to make his way back to Andover. It wasn't until 1939 that that the RAF began to paint their planes yellow, enlisted a monoplane of the type that Goddard saw, and the mechanics uniforms were switched to blue."

Goddard somehow flew four years into the future and then returned to his own time in a matter of hours.

What make this story really strange is that 16 years earlier, Goddard had another paranormal event in his life.
This photo was taken in 1919 and was published in 1975 by Sir Victor Goddard. The photo is a group portrait of Goddard's squadron, which had served in World War I aboard the HMS Daedalus. An extra ghostly face appears in the photo. In back of the airman positioned on the top row, fourth from the left, can be seen the face of another man. It is said to be the face of Freddy Jackson, an air mechanic who had been accidentally killed by an airplane propeller two days earlier. His funeral had taken place on the day this photograph was snapped. Members of the squadron easily recognized the face as Jackson's. It has been suggested that Jackson, unaware of his death, decided to show up for the group photo. Another time slip?
