It may be an urban myth but it was a part of the plot in the movie Brewsters Millions with Richard Pryor and John Candy.

Since the red ink was clearly printed after the blue, I would say the plane was printed correctly and the border is upside down.

Kinda takes away from the excitement.

Turned over, no discernible pilot.
Looks like the first UAV to patrol our southern border!

(Back in 1916 during the Mexican Expedition against Pancho Villa 9 Jenny's were sent as part of the 1st Aero Squadron)

Jenny, I got your number,
I need to make you mine.
Jenny, don’t change your number
Eight six seven five three oh nine...

Couldn’t help myself.
Great tune!
