I’m affraid I completely agree with Fluffy, Jackattack and CIRCUS.
All through the process of this thread while 474 was painted people asked about the nose art and all the time it was said to be kept under wraps, hense the nose art being covered. This was done for a reason, but with the aircraft type being what she is, has had a lot of attention and she is going to be photographed from every angle possible by any enthusiast with a camera but you surely couldn’t expect the officials to go around everyone and tell them not to publically show the pictures because they were more than likely to busy for a start off with all that was going on, but obviously some people on here couldn’t wait to get home and be the first person to put on here the pictures of the nose art and steal all the glory by being the first to do it, even though they must of knew that it was being kept under wraps, pretty poor if you ask me:mad:
And as for it not mattering that they have been put on here because it will get more publicity at the unveiling, how wrong can you be! This aviation forum has thousands of members world wide not just in the UK and probably has three times as many visits by just guests looking in alone. The press release at Conningsby will be very small compared to the global viewing of this web site.
I know we all like our pictures, but sometimes people just don’t listen, they thrive on being the attention grabbers by being the first to post their pictures. I have took quite a lot of pictures of this aircraft over the past few days but have not posted one of them out of respect for the wishes of the crew.
Winge over!!!
