I'm pretty liberal when it comes to owner paint schemes, but if they're going to pretend to be something they're not, all I ask is they do it halfway correctly.
Nose art on planes that didn't have it is a pet peeve...too many guys think a warbird (or pretend warbird) isn't a warbird without a naked lady on it.
My worse case example is a Twin Beech painted in 1950s SAC markings with a semi clothed lady on the nose.
Somehow, I don't think Curt LeMay would have allowed that on a SAC aircraft in the 50s.

Now there is a politically correct statement if I ever heard one!![]()
Personally, it is all about the airplanes for me, but then again I'm antisocial. If everyone dropped off their planes and left, I'd be perfectly happy.
