That type of bravado would get you grounded these days. I will however admit to being in a flight that entered Iraqi airspace playing Queen’s “We Will Rock You” over an open UHF channel.

that’s good - but Rock the Casbah would have been even better. :-)

Why would this kind of thing get anyone grounded? The mission was fully vetted and approved. Anyone carrying out their orders to do such a thing today would probably not get much publicity, but they’d not be grounded, either.

That said, I don’t know what kind of aircraft anyone has anymore that could carry out a similar mission.
