He's tough.

How Tough...

His mother used to rock him to sleep....
With real rocks.

PS. If you want a real nice shade of desert pink, go have a look at the colors used on the RAF Buccaneers in the Gulf War Part 1.

Aw you know... Hot'n'High runway length requirements.

Probably needed a ten mile runway in that heat. Cool pic...

Come to think of it, I'm more interested in those Hunters in the background. Where was this that still operates Hunters ?

Nothing wrong with pink camo if it works...

Didn't the Saudi's get Hunter's. That said it looks an old pic so it could still be the RAF with them.

I have to agree, the P-40 looks...weird. Subdued pink for the desert is one thing, but faggotty gloss pink with a neon underbelly and lipstick is just...well...yuck.

Thumrait Remembered


That pink P-40 was the first one I ever saw. I was too young to give a rat's a-s-s about the paint job...
I just thought it was a cool bird. But then I'm as biased about Curtiss products as they come...

Anyhoo, I think Sue Parish, a former WASP, earned the right to paint any airplane she flew however
she felt like painting it. I believe she also had a T-34 with the same paintjob and markings.

You can see a few more shots of this 'terrible' paint job on my P-40 site. There's also a couple'a shots
of this ship when it was modified as an air racer...

P-40N-35-CU 44-7619

I have to update the page, as I've gained info concerning this P-40's wartime service and postwar life
since first putting it up on the site. Hopefully I can do that this weekend...


Fade to Black...

About the P-40, I quess Pink is the new Olive drab... Or a "her" fighter.

But think about how intimidating it would be for a German to get shot down by a Pink P-40 or Spitfire!
