A new species of Angry Bird was discovered in USA:

According to few available information, since its habits need to be studied, this enormous bird habitates in airfields, drinks aviation fuel instead of water and when gets really angry...beware its lethal droppings.

:lol: well, to every generation their markings, I guess. Dunno if that kind of thing would be sanctioned if it was really painted on an aircraft though. Besides the fact that it would work much better on a rounder nose like, say, a Tomahawk or something... Some current UAVs could do as well, mind.
(you can see where the overlay meets the nose probe and refueling receptacle that the side view would be horrible. Shark mouths have the historical advantage of looking much better when viewed from all angles)

Yes, from the detail in refueling receptable is clear that the "bird" is photoshoped. But still funny including my comment below the photo.

Never said it wasn't funny ;)
Your comment is certainly worth more than the original 'shop.

This is how you do it at Bodø Airport, when the aircraft is so new, that you have no equipment for it. (Viking strong :D ):

That's a fine looking lightvessel. :) Dont know why it would be armed, maybe some one was really desperate for a ship to put guns on.
