Aircraft Christmas Photos
Mon Nov 27, 2006 7:25 pm
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.
"Have A Very Merry MIG-Mas"
Anyone else got any shots of aircraft dressed up for the holidays?

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...
The real Santa don't drive no pointy-nose aeroplane!

This is good. 
These pictures aren't mine, but the Air Wing that this C-130H belongs to is.
This Herc is from my old unit and base. The 910th AW at Youngstown, OH.
