"Banana Bomber"?
That's a Buccaneer, isn't it?

I guess it was, aka the Banana Jet and other sundry names. It looks like it carried a few other names as well. The term "Banana Bomber" struck me for this yellow AN2 because of it's color or Colour (for you Brits). Just having a little fun here. 8-)

Hey FSX68,
Thanks for the kind words. I have a couple more repaints that I'm working on. I really have been enjoying the An-2 (painting and flying :icon_lol:).

Very nice! Yellow is one of my faves. Nice stripes work as well.
