''...the less stringent tasks of an air trafficker...oops, they might approve the army to fire mortars in an area where you're flying and you might get shot down!''

Yes, the word 'naive' definitely springs to mind.
And how exactly does this comment make you laugh? Where is the naivety in stating a fact?
If you really think that the mortars surrounding your LZ do not need authorisation to fire when they have a potential vertex height of >8000ft,then it is you that is naive!!
