Wonderful stuff!
Many thanks for posting the link!
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
So how many books are in your personal library?
Excellent post Wayne. I have seen some of the photos before but the majority of them were new to me. What a great and inspiring History. It makes me want to paint a shark mouth on the Wife's car!
Great link to some great and interesting nose art. Thanks for the post.
Nice link and story. Thanks for the post.
<- very glad that motif never made it onto a Me-262...
Nice spot, Wayne. Thanks for the link.
That was a really great story Wayne.
Many Thanks for posting.
Great article, Wayne.
I will have to come back to this when I have more time to read it thoroughly.
Though there is a book on the development of the 262 titled 'Sharks of the air'! -(a great read BTW).
