not Friday and they have been posted on these boards before; but they are nose art and family so I'm gonna toss them on this thread anyway.

This is my Grandfather posing in front of his C47 pamphlet bomber "Litter Bug" during the Vietnam War.  It's hard to make out, but the nose art is a cloud blowing the clothes off the woman.



This is the nose "art" on a P51D flown by a distant cousin late in WW2, William Eddins. He named the plane after his son who was also named William.



The man and his plane

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

Nose art Friday!   

If i am not mistaken, this what just  a propaganda shot.  There really was not shark mouth on any stuka, or any other German plane, if i am not mistaken.
