Not a shark mouth, but I found this radome decoration interesting:

A pretty cool one on a cargo 747:

Wonder why they gave it shark's teeth on a Tiger

Probably because Flying Tiger Line was originally formed by some ex AVG pilots.

My goodness look what I've been missing ! Love that 747 ( click, save ) defo need to see more of that. The Tucanos look brilliant, and that boat has to be the best paint ever on a seaborne aeroplane !

Thanks guys.

That L-42 (never heard of it before) is an absolute

I don't remember seeing this strange looking a/c with the sharp teeth in the thread:

It's a YF-94D - photo copied from here.

Here's another Flying Tiger: a DC-8-62.

Then there was this rather inconsequential attempt at Airbus for the "Sharklet Wing" prototype:

And, finally, not a Shark Mouth, but the concept and execution on this 707 prototype and its sensor boom are original!

An early design:

That Belgian AF pusher is a nice one. I've seen it before in a book of "Pusher Aces" and there are a couple of others. People tend to forget that both Belgian and French AF's in WWI had some very attractive artwork, the attention is always on the German types where admittedly there are many more

Wow. More great finds ! I just saw the Avieology Decals set and now want to build one :

Separate propellers for either increasing or decreasing speed by the look of those on the Wyvern
