back in the early 70's I knew a guy who overheard this conversation on the VHF Guard
(emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz while flying east of Cyprus. 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
Turkish airspace. Identify yourself.'


Aircraft: 'This is a Royal Air Force aircraft. I am in British airspace.'

Air Defense Radar: 'You are in Turkish airspace. If you do not depart our
airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'

Aircraft: 'This is a Royal Air Force F6 Lightning fighter. Send 'em up,
I'll wait!'

Air Defense Radar: Wait? - In a Lightning? Ahahahahah!!!

Might not be true though.
