Also, at the end of the flight, you can hear the automated cockpit voice
repeating "bingo, bingo".  Erwin asks the pilot what that means.  The
pilot simply says, "It means its time to go home".  He may fool him, but
he didn't fool me.

I've heard of celebs getting flights before (hell a local TV Anchorwoman

managed to score a flight in one of the VERY few 2-seat A-10's out
there, I 
still wanna know how that happened), but firing a sidewinder? PILOTS
don't 
get to do that very often!
