Downloaded it, but haven't had a chance to read it yet. Don't know about the ordnance statistics from Allied Force... but something tells me that a microwave oven isn't going to defeat a missile... especially if the power grid happens to be destroyed.

Harriers and hovering?

It's got nothing to do with what type of aircraft you're in, it's based on altitude (or cabin altitude). Mooney's aren't pressurized, and I'm guessing (heading towards a slippery slope here..) he had an issue with his oxygen system, leading to incapacitation and subsequent loss of control.

Very cool! I'm sure FC will be proud!
