For those of you who celebrate Christmas.

I figured I'd start a thread to kick off the "Jolly Old Saint Nick" Season.

This was taken in front of the Foriegn Technologies building at Wright-Patt AFB in the early '90s. I believe this MIG is now on display at the museum.

Anyone else got any shots of aircraft dressed up for the holidays?

Shot of Fuerza Aerea Guatemalteca's FAG-360, painted as "336" Guatemala, December 1990, by yours truly.

Barely visible are "presents" hanging from the bomb-racks.

Tulio my friend,

Your pic is obviously some type of cheap, photoshop forgery; as everybody knows...
