"I just flew with a guy who overheard this conversation on the VHF
Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz while flying from Europe to Dubai
.
It's too good not to pass along. The conversation went something like
this...
Air Defense Radar: 'Unknown aircraft at (location unknown), you are
in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.'
Aircraft: 'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'
Air Defense Radar: 'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart
our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'
Aircraft: 'This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send
'em up, I'll wait!'
Air Defense Radar: (no response ... total silence)"
