I wonder what would happen if FiFi would be repainted with authentic nose-art, named "Fu-Kemal" (there also was a "Fu-Kemal-Tu")

I'd say sure why not!....as long as you pronounce it FOOK


Of course the answer is that somebody might be offended and if that happened the funding might get thin and then the airplane might not fly and then I'd cry.

There's lots of paint (such a great, big canvas) that I would like to see FiFi rotate through....just think...a new set of t-shirt sales every year or so!
