I remember begging a guard with an AK next to the stealth fighter at an Austin air show ‘oh, come on, please? let me inside it?’ He laughed, shaking his head.

Amazing isn’t it? All my life I wished I could just once have the chance to fly in a fighter jet — you know, screaming toward the sun with my hair on fire. Being the weenie I am, I’d get airsick and probably pass out, but oh how I wish I could. My heart is with them — those boys of the sky — someday, maybe someday. What a rush that would be. Sorry, don’t mean to sidetrack this very, very outstanding thread.

Um... the guard probably wasn’t carrying an AK as that is a Soviet/Russian/Chinese issue weapon, and not US issue... more like an AR.
