Conversation overheard on VHF Guard 121.5 MHz

Argentine Air Defence Site: 'Unknown aircraft you are in Argentine airspace. Identify yourself.'

Aircraft: 'This is a British aircraft. I am in Falklands airspace.'

Argentine Air Defence Site: 'You are in Argentine airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'

Aircraft: 'This is a Royal Air Force Tornado fighter. Send them up, I'll wait!'

Argentine Air Defence Site: ( .... total silence)

Even thirty years on from the Falklands War, such things still raise a smile :D.
