Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

Wow, some exercise going on there!
I wonder why the marketing dept of Phoenix Air thought it would be a good idea to put some hippie patterns on that EMB120...

I think a Phoenix Air employee asked their 12 year old kid to create the most distracting colour scheme to hide their deep relation with the military

Thanks for all the comments. Truly, this is only a very small part of the jets we saw. I'm really bummed the chrome F-35s never came anywhere near us, and the paint on the VX-23 birds was very cool as well.
Phoenix has checkerboard flags on at least 3 of it's planes. The EMB shown here at one time belonged to Michael Waltrip Racing, the paint might've come from him. ...and hey, I like the grey tiger striped Phoenix jets, but the 'hippie' paint does make for a sort of camouflage on its own.
