Back to the point!

O'k lets end this here shall we and not rehash the whole Iran /Vincennes incident.I was simply trying to make the point that intercepts are way more common than most civilian trained airline pilots realize and usually go unnoticed and unreported. As to whether the Iranian's have the right to intercept/identify/ and react if required to an unidentified inbound radar contact closing on their airspace at 200 miles the answer is, they do...if they had that capability!
Fly safe out there and don't look back, something might be gaining on you!
