Ha, I thought nobody would ask. It probably will be quite a disapointing story though, sorry.
Anyway, I was on holiday in Slovakia and basically, they just have old sovjet jets sitting around. We visited a very small “airport” (the runway was grass) used for skydiving. And they just had a MiG-21 sitting behind the building. No fence or anything. One of the Skydiving company staff said I can sit in it, if I want. So I did. He didn’t come with me or anything. It was also out if sight from anyone on the airfield.
Apperently this isn’t unusual at all and these planes are just sitting around in random fields as “decoration”.
Here’s a googlemaps link. I sat in that one!
I did sit in the cockpit smoking a joint with the canopea almost closed. For a minute.
Ok, that’s what hotbox means! Even better than farting, now it’s an awesome story man!
That’s indeed disappointing, I thought “hotbox a cockpit” meant to fart inside! Anyway, still a nice story.
You’ve just given me a goal, except the only place I know with airplanes laying around is a museum. I’d feel bad hotboxing a plane in a museum.

Yeah, don’t do that. To be honest, I didn’t even close the canopea fully, I worried about not getting out. I sat on the wing for most of the lenght of the joint.
But It sounded much cooler this way.
I could call up my acquaintance with a cessna, but he doesn’t know I smoke. He’s a little too, uh, mormon for that conversation.
Looks like you’re not the only one with this idea.
