Now, I have seen -but rarely published- shots of aircraft bearing names or graphics, that sooner or later were forced to "become decent" by orders of the people with the pointy hats

That particular pose was a Varga Girl pinup, and was the basis of nose arts on several aircraft (many sans bathing suit.) If I ever build a model of the SB, I think I'll do the more riske version..just for fun.![]()
