No fly zone are easy to understand, even for joy stick pilots. Irakis planes are not allowed to fly outside a horizontal stretch measuring 333.333 Km, (three degrees) starting south of Bagdad and going north. That's UN air space by law, read US-UK. And if so many of your hotshot pilots don't get a a clear cut order not to mess with the Iraki air defense in the morning, you can bet some are going to dive on them like mad. Why wouldn't they ? The pilot who will come back with the movie of a missile, or gun shots he evaded, should, if he is good enough not to die become hero among his peers. Some day he should become general, especially if a war starts because of his skills. Now, if he dies, he'll be remembered just like Captain Anderson, the US pilot shot dead above Cuba forty years ago... Either way, he's got it made. So my bet is that tonight scores of your pilots there are having quite strange dreams, before they fall asleep, that is.
