The video below is an AT-38 training mission with a foreign student.  The clueless student turned the defog & heat full on and is baking the instructor pilot in the back seat.  The instructor begins yelling at the student... this is the funniest flying video I have seen in a long time!  For you former Talon Instructor Pilots, get ready to laugh your ass off!
