Ummmm, Groom Lake aka Area 51 didn't exist in the 70's. That's the story and
we're sticking to it.

care to explain what my mate was doing flying a USAF aircraft over the groom
lake airspace and range in combat with "mig -21"was then ?
I could be wrong but I would venture to say Dave was joking.
Take a look at the charts for that time frame. The area is blank. The
government denied it existed. No one who worked there was allowed to
talk...etc.

You would be correct.....it was sort of a joke, although, the humor might not
have translated into that other English language (Australian) too well. Should
have pasted on a smilely.
