One cool thing about the new skins is that - unless you've memorized every skin available -  you can come up on a 109 & never really know what variant it is.  Prior to skins, you'd see the same defaul paint job & think, "yea...a G-2 (because of the blue swastika/cross/whatever-it's-called)."

Adds a small degree of uncertainty to the game.  Skins are a great addition to AH.  :aok

Exactly. I want to fly either "Old Crow" or "Glennis" ponies. Would make it even more enjoyable for me.

I know someone's already submitted Yeager's "Glennis II". How long does it take for a skin to be approved, if it is, at all?
