Homer Flies

Airliner World contributor Marco Rossi

spotted this unusual example of ‘nose

art’ or more accurately ‘undercarriage art’

recently at Turin/Caselle Airport in Italy.

An illustration of Homer Jay Simpson, the

famous fictional character from animated

in the dirty surface of the door panel; the

author is unknown...
