I recall a story about two F111's transiting to LFA 15, in the early 70s, c/sign Sperm 01 and 02. Said acft were receiving "service” from a female controller from a certain atcru in Northern England. She is reputed to have said, in a plum, cut crystal voice:

"You are now entering my dark area, ceasing radar service".

The leader responded in a laconic Texan draw:

"OK. Wriggle, baby wriggle"!
