An unsecured cockpit flag unfurling across a pilot’s visor and controls would be a pretty incredible way to lose an airframe
Don’t worry, that’s the pilots old lucky cumrag. Stiff as a board, it won’t unfurl any time soon
Why is it always the same rectangular piece that has the art?
It might be a removable cover for an avionics bay. That would make it a lot easier to paint on an easel or flatter surface.
I love the Hephaestus pilot’s little camel stuffy. I wonder what the story is behind it.
“Take Humpy with you, dad. He’ll keep you safe!”

Hermes’s epithet Argeïphontes (Ancient Greek: Ἀργειφόντης; Latin: Argicida), meaning “slayer of Argus”,[75][76] recalls the slaying of the hundred-eyed giant Argus Panoptes by the messenger god. Argus was watching over the heifer-nymph Io in the sanctuary of Queen Hera, herself in Argos. Hermes placed a charm on Argus’s eyes with the caduceus to cause the giant to sleep, after which he slew the giant with a harpe.[14]

That was before they broke into his house and killed his dog. Now he yeets Sidewinders.
This right here is why non stealth planes will always be cooler to me
