Paul,

What you can't see is the other side of the aircraft. Instead of "Illegitimatus Non Carborundum", it says "Air Power" and , instead of "Bernies Bo" (which apparently should have been "Bernie's Bo"), it has "Jolly Roger" as the aircraft name and has a different piece of art! A little confusing, to say the least...


From Wikipedia:


Illegitimi non carborundum is a mock-Latin aphorism, often translated as "Don't let the bastards grind you down". The phrase itself has no meaning in Latin and can only be mock-translated as a Latin–English pun.

Thanks, Racer, I knew all of that. The most interesting thing to me is the difference between the port and starboard side markings. If you didn't know that they belonged to the same aircraft, you'd think that you were looking at two separate planes.
