the things you learn, give your mind the wings to fly, and the chains to hold yourself steady
take off and nuke the site form orbit, nope, time for the real thing, CAM and gridfire, call special circumstances.

Damn it too, I was going to call my AV-22 a Dragon, but do you think I could find any dragon decals, or even dxf drawing so I could make my own   :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Exactly. I can't think larger than 1/71st scale......  ;D

I hope this isn't a repost. I HAVE gone through every single page in here but I have a less than stellar recall so.....    :unsure: ;D


Anyway!!  My nomination for LARGEST standalone mouth decoration goes to the Flying Tiger Line 747s.



One in the same as the people that flew over China. If ever there were a "life" to possibly want to magically "jump into" it just might be the life of an AVG pilot. First, the whole aspect of being a sort-of "civvie mercenary group" that got to travel and see amazing things, be a part of one of the most efficient units in history, fly Hawks, THEN go and start your very own airliner, make it all how you want, paint your planes how you want, own your own Boeing 747s and fly them.  :mellow: :mellow: :mellow: :mellow:      Airline>Bike Club.  ;D (not that there's anything wrong with bike clubs, mind, for those Hells Angels in the audience  ;D ;D ;D )

I wonder how the flying public would react to QANTAS (say) painting sharks mouths on their A380s?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

That would be awesome. Might improve upon the lines of the aircraft a bit.  There's a bit of precedent, as they put a toothy grin on one of their 320's in house livery, just gotta convince Qantas  ;D:





Meanwhile, I just stumbled across THIS goofy looking thing:

Don't know if we've had this one here before.  TBBH I can't be bothered to go through 35 pages to look.  It's a beautifully crisp picture.

Pretty cool! Makes me want to whif a plane up.... one that drops ACTUAL sharks as weapons.  :wacko:

Oh yeah, a super pic, and I LOVE the Mirage F1 too, looks like every kid's idea of a supersonic fighter.  :thumbsup:

Fred's comment about shark mouths on Qantas made my fingers go a googling, close enough?

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
