While nice, these pin-ups cannot compare to the beauty of the many FReepettes who would be the envy of many of those posted on this thread.

Yeah, but those aircraft were meant to do a WHOLE lot more than sit on the ground and show off their pretty noses...

Now here's something you don't see everyday:

Thanks much, Snow Bunny for a fantastic thread today. As an afficianado of nose art, I enjoy ALL the wonderful pix, expecially those of the Vargas Girl era.

I gave a lot of thought to putting some art on my C182RG (providing I can get my 2nd class medical back...which does look promising, though not immediately. I feel bad about that as I wanted to help 4TheFlag out this July (Sorry, 4 I would if I could), but the FAA wants one fully recovered from back surgery LOL.

My idea was to use Mrsgwmoore as the "model" for said "Vargas Girl" with the logo "Isabella Anne" (Big evil grin), but she is somewhat reluctant to the idea. I will probably use a cat motif (Thanks SAMWolf), with the logo "Purrfection". Of course, any of the dollz on this thread would look great for nose art ;-)

Tonk, thanks for the interactive nose art link...great site.......

Incidentally, any ideas on nose art will be appreciated here. The new tail number (I got a vanity approved, but still have to put the papers in for the official change of number), will be N707GW, so maybe that will give some ideas out there. Thanks to all for Keeping the Faith for Freedom!

Here's Fifinella, *Fifi* for short, the female gremlin who was once the symbol of the WASP female ferry pilots who flew out of Avenger Field in Texas- and who lived on the nose of my old AT-10 and Piper search-and-rescue birds:
