Dice, I did see a new door however I wasn't able to get a picture of it for you. If I remember correctly it was on acft 688, just in case you know anyone up at Pope who maybe able to hook you up.

Lil Hitler, if you get a picture of 688's door, send it to me too. That was Richards' jet, he's at Nellis and we're going TDY there in a few weeks, I'd like to show it to him. JB is still at Pope, I will email him to see if he knows anything about it.

Hitler that jet looks good enough to be put on a concrete pole at the front gate. <img src=icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle> Sorry just a little crew chief ribbing. I can do that seeing as I am currently without a jet.

Hitler, nice...thanks for sharing! <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle> If you or jackb have any luck getting a shot of the door you guys know where to find me.

...hey wait a minute isn't that a Pope jet in an ACC unit...now how in the world can they have some door art?? <img src=newicons/saevil.gif border=0 align=middle> You just can't keep a good idea down forever....

BTW if you find someone to get a shot of 688's door see if they can also get a shot of the jet (can remember the tail number) which should still be carring the "Running with the Devil" art. That door dates back to the late 70s early 80s and I would love to have a shot of it.

I emailed JB a minute ago, I think he's back in Bagram now though but we'll see what he has to say. I will e-mail Ward and T-Bone tomorrow from work.

After thinking about it I may have given out a wrong tail number, if it wasn't 688 it could have been 186.

Dice, the art looked as though it was drawn out in pencil and was from the Bagh I believe.

JB is in Bagram now, so he's got no info. I will email Ward, T-Bone, and another guy I know at Pope tomorrow.

Bad news guys.....
I asked my friends at Pope, about both "Runnin with the Devil" and the new(er) one.
I got an email back from my friend T-Bone, here's what he had to say....

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>"I looked at all the aircraft here. None have any door art. The last one was 186 which had Running with the Devil on it. The crew chief found it delaminated and turned it in to S/M. They NRTS’d it and it went in the trash."<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size=2 id=quote>

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. This sucks.

Jack, did he check the 74th side of the house? That's the squadron these jets where out of, or at least the aircrew.

He's in QA now, so I assumed he checked the whole ramp, but I will email him and ask to verify.

Oh yeah, I was <img src=newicons/madani.gif border=0 align=middle>piiiiiiiiiiissed<img src=newicons/anim_cussing.gif border=0 align=middle> when I heard that.
I emailed him back to confirm he checked all the jets, and specified the one Lil Hitler saw was not painted like a normal door, and he said he'd seen one done in sharpie or something and he's send me some pics tonight. I just got this email about 30 seconds ago, I will post as soon as I get them.<img src=newicons/bounce.gif border=0 align=middle>

Got some pics, but I can't access photobucket from work, so I will post them when I get home tonight.
Dice, I fowarded the email to you, if you get a chance before I get home, you can go ahead and post them.

Jack, got the email and while that's a new one, it's not the one I seen. The one that was visiting here was titled Martyrs Muraders (or something like that). Looks like there must be two up there now then

Nice photo that one in the early morning Lil'Hitler.
It is one for a wallpaper on the pc. With a good textline in it. Like: "Sharp and dangerous around the clock" or better ones.

Looks like someone may have saw "Homicidal Hawg" somewhere alone the line. I've also see the title "Harvester of Sorrow" somehwere...I'll have to look through my art files.

BTW thanks for the high rez copy jack.
