| Tickled Pink !
You no doubt have all heard of this well known saying but rarely applied it to aeroplanes,well our next years local club project revolves around machines that have been painted a pink colour,after a quick bit of research there are certainly more subjects than at first imagined,this is what I have so far come up with-
'Pink Lady' B-17.
Shorts Skyvan painted pink and used for sky diving by Silvia Wagner.
Pink Floyd's Dave Gilmour owned a Folland Gnat.
'Pink Lady' B-24 serial 41-11764.
F-86 Sabre was painted pink after his groundcrew found out that his wife had given birth to a baby girl.
XB-GEN Cessna 170 flown by Capitan Francisco Lopel.
G-ASMF BAC.111 operated by Court-Line.
High altitude Mosquito.
High altitude Spitfire.
High altitude Whirlwind fighter.
A Toronto radio station operate a pink helicopter.
Noel Edmunds had a pink painted Jet Ranger with 'Mr Blobby' markings.
P-40 flown by a woman pilot called Parish...
If you know of any more with the pink connection then I would like to know more about them,vehicles also come under the category as well.
