Biography Habib Chbouki
Habib Chbouki, born on November 13, 1954, in Khouribga (Morocco), is a technician, inventor, and applied technology researcher. Passionate about mechanics and aeronautics, he is the author of numerous civil and military innovations. He is particularly recognized as the father of the first Moroccan theory of the flying saucer — a concept he is currently developing alongside his two partners, Gad Simon Ohnona and Sido Elidrissi, through the pioneering project known as the first working flying saucer.
Education and Early Life
Habib Chbouki grew up in Safi. After high school, he moved to France and earned a vocational diploma (BEP) in mechanics in Saint-Étienne (1975–1977). He then continued his technical studies at the OCP School of Mechanical Engineering in Khouribga (1979), focusing on machine design. He was later admitted to the Swiss Engineering School in Biel (mechanical section), but had to interrupt his studies for financial reasons.

The Flying Saucer Project
Initiated in the early 2000s, this confidential and unconventional project aims to build a flying saucer capable of vertical lift and sustained hovering — breaking with traditional aeronautical principles. Developed alongside his two partners, the prototype is said to have successfully flown. The story is detailed in the book: « UFO: The End of a Myth. »
