Arghh!

I have a l hatred for those aircraft that have been polished to within an inch of their lives, I detest it. These aircraft were utility and expendable, they were built to do a job and like a lot of military weapons were given the minimal amount of finish needed to protect them.

They are tools, not bloody pieces of jewellery and polishing up this aircraft is in my eyes a total travesty.
