What a wicked paint scheme idea..... The owner BTW owns the Spit in real life.

What next?

Perhaps Tiffies painted all over the 330 tankers to fool the bad guys into thinking it has an escort...... Think of the cost savings :p

Well, I'm happy to give latitude, as long as it's in degrees, minutes and seconds, not decimals.

It's a thing of beauty. I sometimes wonder what we'd come up with if we could decorate our jets more imaginatively. Low viz/camo was great when visual acquisition was the way to find mil a/c, but now we could do Viking stuff and make our paint scheme strike fear into the hearts of the enemy.

See, we even have a military aviation slant on this thread now!

Is the Spit painted with a Global on the bottom too?

This is how said Global's owner decorated his front lawn here in the USA this year Santa got run over by a F-104 (http://www.stardem.com/life/collection_6af301f6-1e9e-11e1-b7cd-001871e3ce6c.html)
