Conversation overheard 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 like this... Iranian Air Defense Radar: 'Unknown aircraft 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 F-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll wait!'

Air Defense Radar: (no response .... total silence)

Kathy, there is humor in every ones job...Being a Captain of An F-18 when a country that has nothing close to match your aircraft...is a good chuckle when they threaten you.
