Well-guarded RV at Whiteman AFB

Paint
Mark (and Doug)provided the inspiration for me to paint my rv in the Air Force trainer livery. Ended up running out of money for paint so I did the WW-II bare aluminum, Stars and bars P-51 Look.
Now that I have the plane in Florida, I'm getting too tired (or too lazy) of polishing the aluminum, and the salt air is getting to it, so I'm getting it painted finally.
Hopefully the look will be a surprise----
(Gin up your own political reference!)

If you're talking about your avitar---how do you know I'm not mounting M-60's as we speak?
I have thought of the propane fired replicas that they use on the WW-1 replicas, though.

No I had to leave Saturday evening so I missed seeing Joe fly. I did see KC Flight perform though...they did a pretty good job despite strong, gusty winds and the limitations imposed by the 'no fly' zones on both sides of the runway at Whiteman (B-2 hangars on one side and nuke weapons depot on the other).
