Here's some help, why not go to a local library and up this information? I just recieved a book on the 354th pioneer mustang fighter group, they escorted the bombers in ETO, then flew in theater from forward air bases. Flew P-51's and P-47's.

I do believe I saw a photograph somewhere of a B-24 that had "Hell's Angels" on the nose.
But, I wouldn't use that one if I were you.

WW II pin-ups look cool on a bike. I have one on the oil tank on my 76 bobber. Google Vargas Pin ups for some good ideas. Billy Lane did one called Miss Behavin' that was pretty cool. Good luck

spoon, that vinyl looks great. That might have just changed my mind. I'm sure it will save quite a few $$$ to just do vinyl instead of paint.

While there may well have been one a/c with the name , and noseart the 303 BG(H) at Molesworth had the nickname "Hell's Angels" and they were a B17 Group
